Ok, another round… (sigh)
TV’s Frink said:
Along those lines, for those of you who think you have to be a member of the race being stereotyped…what gives you the right to insist it’s not a stereotype if you aren’t a member of that race? That’s far worse!
Sorry I don’t get it: not sure I said that. But anyway if you feel offended by Watto I guess there is nothing more to add. I believe you’re wrong to be but this is subjective. The issue is that next time I watch TMP and AOTC I’ll think “oh, so Watto looks like TV’s Frink ? Intriguing…”.
If anyone here (who doesn’t think there are racial stereotypes in TPM) is a Black Asian Jew, I’d like to hear about it for sure.
We need to show them TPM and hear what they think about that : https://terminusabyssinie.files.wordpress.com/2013/08/mg_5338.jpg
(if TPM is such a racist movie, these black asian jewish guys are likely going to sue GL)
Now, what about the black slave stereotypes of TFA ? Finn is a black dude who deserts his masters (his main job was toilet cleaner), who gets a new name thanks to a white man, who drinks the same water as an animal, and who gets beaten by Rey because he’s accused of having stolen the jacket of a white man by a white ginger droïd ? I clearly find this quite offensive.
