Has the cantina bar on Tatoonie lifted their racist ban on droids? Was hoping Rey helped bring attention to this

Isn't racist since it was droids. Not sure what it is, or if they still enforce it, but not racist.

What a racist thing to say

Attention seeking post, droids aren't a race so stop wasting peoples time

you quibble over grammar and disregard the message.

droids are excluded

What would a Droid need to a bar?

[–] millsey72 (9588) 4 months ago

Maybe they just want to hear the music and or dance a bit? Not everyone in a bar has to drink

This should be addressed in the Mos Eisley Disney+ streaming series which I am sure is under development.

Sounds like an interesting idea. I hope that same band from episode 4 is still playing in that rockin music

Maybe it will be Jabba’s Palace Band from the ROTJ Special Edition playing Jedi Rocks

Yet you didn’t say anything about the transport ship from Coruscant to Naboo. The bar on that ship was also racist against droids yet you apparently didn’t want Rey to bring attention to that. Selective moral outrage????

Despite any semantics others are replying with, I am legitimately surprised that the line "we don't serve their kind here" hasn't prompted a viewer advisory on the Disney+ streaming platform as offensive. Or removed from the movie altogether.

I agree
