They raped and tortured his mother.

Maybe this should be moved to the Fett thread, but to be clear, there are obvious issues with the storyline in BoBF. It's problematic af! But the "white savior" trope is an angle I hadn't seen discussed. I'm reading some articles right now about that framing. I'm surprised I missed so much of this controversy/conversation in real time.

Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

saying you should be bothered by the portrayal of the tuskens as a savage sand people that rape and steal is pro-racism and rape I guess?

Does this qualify for Jorge's weird energy thread?

Maybe. The idea that I over-moderated 10 years ago, let alone at any point in history would certainly qualify

I do remember reading/hearing these takes when BOBF was airing. I do not know if anyone has asked Temuera Morrison about it directly, but I would be interested to hear his take.

What if it was a subversion of the trope because it was POC helping POC?
