Not to put words in their mouth, but I think that’s what he’s saying:

Miles Morales is cool, because he’s his own person with their own character traits.

As opposed to rebooting Peter Parker and making him a half black, half Puerto Rican (which I think is what he is inferring when mentioning Luke Skywalker and Klingons).

Miles Morales absolutely got shit from racists when he was created btw

Absolutely; but I was more interpreting what that one person commented on - rather than speaking for a larger community.

Miles was absolutely hated on by racists, which is a massive L for them as Stan Lee had repeatedly said that one of the reasons why Spider-Man’s outfit covers him from head-to-toe is that anyone could see themselves in that character.
