Why is the Star Wars character Jar Jar Binks hated by so many Star Wars fans?

He may be hated for many things (discussed later), but let’s address the main concern:Jar Jar is not a racist stereotype.He’s Orange skinned, for starters. His voice is unlike any Afrocentric accent or dialogue that I know of. He has no features that can be construed as a caricature of Afro-Caribbean origin. He may have been played by a tall, thin Afro American, (Ahmed Best) but Best himself made sure Jar Jar wasn’t portrayed as a derogatory take on a black man. Best himself invented Jar Jar’s voice.Regardless of how much he got paid, I’m sure he would’ve refused to make certain choices if Lucas had asked him to do something that he felt was ‘racist’ or stereotypical, or denigrating to his culture. Do you think Best’s Co-star Samuel L. Jackson would’ve said something? He hasn’t. Even to this day. And you know Sam Jackson doesn’t take any guff from anyone.And now, I’d like to mention something that many seem to have missed:GEorge pulled off a great trick.He INTENTIONALLY made JAr JAr an annoying, slapstick character for one main reason. Well, TWO, the second being comic relief for the kids.The reason is this: Jar Jar Binks (along with Watto, to a certain extent) was the FIRST fully digital character to fully interact on screen with human actors. (The T-1000 in Terminator 2 was a number of stylised short clips, using Robert Patrick as the main performer rather than a full lead character)George’s trick was to get the whole world complaining and discussing Jar Jar’s annoying personality, ‘stupid’ look, pratfalls and buffoonery, that they completely forgot to look closer and realise that this digital character was put on screen with the human stars. Yes, everyone KNEW Jar Jar was a digital actor, but they chose to focus on something other than - “oh look how well (or badly) this character has been inserted into the live action. Jar Jar had to quickly convince the audience that he was there - in the moment - so his over the top voice and behaviour was a big misdirect to give audiences something else to talk about. And it worked.
