Hollywood, January 13 (RHC)-- U.S. actor Mark Hamill, who is best known for playing Luke Skywalker in Star Wars, has rejected an image in which far-right activists portray Chile's dictator Augusto Pinochet as a Jedi.

The story began when Natire Bolledo wrote to Hamill telling him that the Chilean far-right used the image of the bloody dictator as a Jedi knight to gain followers.  Last year, the National Force party used the phrase “May the Force be with you” to invite Chileans to “join the real force" capable of destroying the country's "subversive Left."

Hamill reacted to the Pinochet Jedi demonstrating his displeasure with a vomiting emoticon.  Previously, on October 25, 2019, he sent a solidarity message to those protesting against President Sebastian Piñera.

"Greetings to all Chileans!  The world is watching you.  Resist,” Hamill said in response to Karen Allendes, a physician who asked him to send greetings to "Chileans who fight now for a dignified life and against a fascist government."
