The characters of Fin and Poe were both humiliated by feminists. The “racist backlash” to Fin was almost entirely in China.

Fun fact. Poe was supposed to die in the first movie. Abrams changed it after casting the actor who played Poe because he liked his performance so much.

"Good looking hotshot space pilot" seems like it should have been impossible to fuck up as an archetype in a Star Wars movie but they did it.

He should have stayed dead. It made no sense for him to be miraculously alive, and back with the good guys after disappearing without a trace after the crash.

They explained it in the book. Not well, but it was explained. You can tell it was added in way after.
