I also thought men of color in the movie were approached in a racist way. The delivery man was the most obvious example - ha ha, he's incompetent with her order and he isn't white - but they were also wheeling out a MOC from the metal concert, and he literally was only there to be injured instead of a character.
(The moment with "the power of Patty compels you" struck me as less Magical Black Person - she was quoting The Exorcist while trying to exorcise a ghost, and not with magical means - and more "look how powerful and physical this black woman is", so a different kind of racism.)
