Looks quite woke
we don't serve your kind here
shareThe original Lucas storyline is that the Evil Empire was Nazi Germany aka: white humanoid males. A powerful woman doesn't fit his narrative. But, this is Disney. The Rebel Alliance, aka: good guys, was always diverse.
shareShut up, NEWB!
shareDisney already said you racist incels are not wanted. Go away!
shareThe color of Luke Skywalker's skin has you Reylos seething. You can never be SW fans, so stop pretending.
shareMark Hamill said you racist incels are not wanted, too. Go away!
shareYou are a fan of Democrat Party activism pretending to be a Star Wars fan.
shareThe GOP = Evil Empire
Trump = Palpatine
Jan. 6, voter suppression, forcing pregnancy on women, book bans, arming crazed militants, embracing racism and homophobia = tyranny
Lucas warned everyone about you in his movies.
^Democrat party wacko confirmed.
shareDisney:
"There are more than 20 million sentient species in the Star Wars galaxy, don’t choose to be a racist.”
Race baiters are not Star Wars fans. SW is not for you, "The Handmaid's Tale" is for you.
share"Looks quite woke"
The OP is the racebaiter. I'm calling him/her out and you!
BTW, I do watch "The Handmaid's Tale" and read the book. I'm sure you support 10-year-old rape victims being forced to remain pregnant.
Keelai is correct, the series was always biased towards the diverse Rebels, who were made up of oppressed peoples of many species, and against the oppressive fascist regime of the Empire.
I honestly don't get why people who support the real-world equivalent of the Empire's oppressive policies consider themselves to be Star Wars fans. And it's not like they even realize it, I seem to be the only one who admits to being a huge Palpatine fan!
The Empire were Nazi-like in visual appearace, but distinguishing between races within humans was/is never a thing in Star Wars.
share"...but distinguishing between races within humans was/is never a thing in Star Wars."
True, yet some people in the fandom will scream "WOKE BULLSHIT" the minute they see actors who aren't white. They're the ones doing the distinguishing.
"distinguishing between races within humans "
You never read the novelizations. It's made clear that humanoid males (white) are favored by the Empire in the original Star Wars book. It also details how the Republic became a tyranny and Vader's fight with Obi-Wan on a volcanic planet decades before Lucas made the prequels.
The Republic had true equality and pluralism in its democracy.
I did read the novelizations, and racism was never a thing even hinted at.
The closest equivalent in the old EU was an idea of "speciism," where Palpatine believed human beings were superior to all the other humanoid species in the Star Wars universe...
NOT TRUE!...YOU CAN WATCH THE FILM TO SEE THAT EVERY PERSON IN POWER IS A WHITE HUMANOID MALE IN THE EMPIRE. THE NOVEL EXPLAINS THE REASON.
AN IMPORTANT PART OF FASCISM IS "US VS THEM"....WHITE HUMANOID MALES ARE THE PREFERRED GROUP IN THE EMPIRE LEADERSHIP IN THE OT.
DO YOU RECALL WHAT THE STAR WARS NOVEL SAID ABOUT HOW THE REPUBLIC FELL?
"The Old Republic was the Republic of legend, greater than distance or time. No need to note where it was or whence it came, only to know that… it was the Republic.
Once, under the wise rule of the Senate and the protection of the Jedi Knights, the Republic throve and grew. But as often happens when wealth and power pass beyond the admirable and attain the awesome, there appear those evil ones who have greed to match.
So it was with the Republic at its height. Like the greatest of trees, able to withstand any external attack, the Republic rotted from within though the danger was not visible from outside.
Aided and abetted by restless, power-hungry individuals within the government, and the massive organs of commerce, the ambitious Senator Palpatine caused himself to be elected President of the Republic. He promised to reunite the disaffected among the people and to restore the remembered glory of the Republic.
Once secure in office he declared himself Emperor, shutting himself away from the populace. Soon he was controlled by the very assistants and boot-lickers he had appointed to high office, and the cries of the people for justice did not reach his ears.
Having exterminated through treachery and deception the Jedi Knights, guardians of justice in the galaxy, the Imperial governors and bureaucrats prepared to institute a reign of terror among the disheartened worlds of the galaxy. Many used the imperial forces and the name of the increasingly isolated Emperor to further their own personal ambitions.
But a small number of systems rebelled at these new outrages. Declaring themselves opposed to the New Order they began the great battle to restore the Old Republic.
From the beginning they were vastly outnumbered by the systems held in thrall by the Emperor. In those first dark days it seemed certain the bright flame of resistance would be extinguished before it could cast the light of new truth across a galaxy of oppressed and beaten peoples…"
No talk of race
"He promised to reunite the disaffected among the people and to restore the remembered glory of the Republic."
MAGA-STYLE NONSENSE.... AN IMPORTANT PART OF FASCISM IS "US VS THEM"....WHITE HUMANOID MALES ARE THE PREFERRED GROUP IN THE EMPIRE LEADERSHIP IN THE OT.
THE HUMANOID MALE COMMENT IS ELSEWHERE IN THE BOOK.
"No talk of race"
OPEN YOUR EYES AND WATCH THE OT. ONLY WHITE HUMANOID MALES IN THE IMPERIAL LEADERSHIP UNLIKE THE REBELS AND REPUBLIC WHICH WERE DIVERSIFIED.
Keep reaching….
shareThe Nazi were German. Germans and the country Germany itself, don't exist in the Star Wars galaxy
shareI guess I must have missed the part where it said that a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, there are only white human men who can be heroes. It doesn't matter what planet one is from. If it's a humanoid character, who isn't a white male, the story could not actually reflect reality.
shareHe's a racist idiot.
shareWhy are you such a pussy about things possibly being woke all the time. Next you’ll be complaining that your disabled anarchist boyfriend is too woke.
share"dumbing my bf, yes hes an anarcho capitalist and yes hes disabled but not he started watching a show with a woman lead. I can only take soo much"
shareYawn, if people of colour or woman upset you, do not watch.
shareBased on username and the fact that the line is definitely a reference back to the cantina line from ANH I'm going to assume this was sarcasm that lots of people missed.
shareLooks like you are quite wrong... so far.
