polarizing

He’s a solar powered immigrant who overcomes his parents’ bigotry. I can’t believe a certain segment of the population would think it was targeting their culture.

Is this a serious post? Do people actually think it was targeting their culture?

I don't see how he overcame his parents' bigotry. He doesn't even find out about it to nearly the end of the movie. He didn't grow up around it. At best you could say it's not genetic. But I think most everyone knows that already.
