Star Wars and racism
Normally I don't like to talk about this topic and given Tumblr's reputation I might as well have a ''kick me'' written on my back but just like those people are allowed to write pages upon pages about how star wars is ‘‘problematic’‘ I’m  allowed to disagree. And I'm sure a lot of people have similar opinions but are too afraid to show it.
1. ‘’An alien has an accent therefore it's a caricature of whatever people have this accent.’‘ It's a huge galaxy with thousands of different species, planets, and cultures. Of course, not everybody will speak the same way. I think it's pretty cool and accurate. 
2. ‘’Toydarians, Muuns and Trandoshans are Jewish stereotypes.’‘ It's just like the Orc argument. If you think any of those creatures and your immediate thought is, Jew, maybe you're the racist.
Watto is the poster child of the Jewish star wars stereotype and I never understood that. Because of his accent? Because of his nose? When we see more Toydarians in the Clone Wars, we see they are nicer and nobler than Watto. Their clothes and their king's saber remind me of Polish szlachta. And even Watto has a great backstory that explains his selfish and greedy behavior. Basically, he took part in a war that left him traumatized and he took it out on others.
Tumblr media
Random person: Then why didn't they explained it in the movie?
Me: Because that's not what the movie is about.
Random person: How was I supposed to know that not every single member of this species is an asshole?
Me: Basic logic. Just because a white person, a man, a Chinese person, or whoever was mean to you doesn't mean that everybody is like that.
Muun noses help them warm up to the cold air in the mountains that they live in. Their architecture is similar to that of Greece. In the clone wars, we see that they have somewhat of a clockwork theme. Because they're so good at math. That's more of the Alps and the Switzerland inspiration.
Tumblr media
Neimoidians have Asian accents and hats. But their clothes and jewelry is more similar to the European aristocracy. Even their guards look Spanish to me.
Tumblr media
Long story short the star wars aliens aren't supposed to represent one single group of people. They’re a mishmash of multiple things to create something completely new and alien.
Trandoshans were never a Jewish allegory. The voice actress for Cid is Jewish and some dumb people come to the conclusion that now all Trandoshans are Jewish. Cid is a Trandoshan! She's not even the villain. The actress was chosen because her voice fits the character. Also, Cid has a bar and her VA played in the show Cheers. This is grasping at straws to create a controversy.
Tumblr media
3. ‘’But there are bad guys who are racist.’‘ ''But this guy was a victim of speciesism! Why is he a bad guy?'' ''But these are good guys why are they racist to other species?''
Tumblr media
It's almost as if things aren't so black and white.
Someone can spontaneously be discriminated against and discriminate against other people. Chiss think of themselves as the best in the galaxy. Meanwhile, Thrawn is being looked down upon for being not human. A taste of his own medicine in a way. And it doesn't look like he thinks ''This is terrible! No one should be treated this way!'', it's more like ''I'm going to put up with this until I get to rule you all, you pathetic humans.''
That one episode of the rebels in which pretty much everybody calls the last Geonosian ''the bug''. Or during the Umbara arc when our beloved clones call the Umbarans ''shadow people''. Or how in the unfinished Utapau arc Anakin is a dick to a Toydarian because he reminded him of Watto. Or how Anakin hates Hutts, even a baby.
It's almost like the characters can have grudges against their enemies or form their opinions on their worst experiences.
Besides, in a galaxy where you can die any number of ways, be enslaved, full of alcohol, drugs, crime, and other terrible things name calling isn't that big of a deal.
Tumblr media
It also shows the tragedy of it all. Every species suffered in some way and if they were allowed to talk about it and bond they might've been friends.
It’s getting long. I might write a part 2 or responses if I get any comments.

[ID: Traditional pencil art of various Star Wars alien redesigns. First image is a fullbody side view of a light blue toydarian with a yellow underbelly and grey eyes. The toydarian’s snout is more tapir-like and its neck is more larger, but the large stomach, skin flapped wings, and long bird-like and webbed legs are still the same. On the right side shows a diagram of Toydarian respiration and how oxygen is breathed through the tip of the snout and out through the extra nostrils on top of the snout. On the left side shows two toydarian busts baring their teeth in a threat display by lifting their trunks.
Second image shows a shocked and angry Toydarian being picked up to show how light they are but warns to not pick them up without asking. Below the Toydarian is a dark yellow redesign of Hutts that are more salamander like and have vistigial and useless back legs, and so traverse with their bellies. Third image shows two Hutt busts, one a orange and yellow looking inquisitive and annoyed, the other a bluish grey looking smug and sticking out their tongue, below them is a green and blue Hutt simply lying down. Fourth image shows shows a brown Hutt being hugged by a smaller humanoid as it looks confused, and a green and yellow Hutt lying down looking smug at the viewer. Fifth image is a redesign of Jabba the Hutt looking smug and drooling over his neck as he fancily smokes.
Sixth image is a redesign of Trandoshans, making their body more like a raptor and dinosaur-like. They have thick scales and heat pits on their snout. There is a green and orange eyed bust and fullbody.
Seventh image is a redesign of Gungans, their lips are more like beaks without any teeth, eyes are more slug-like, they have digitigrade legs, and their ear fins now have colourful patterns under them. The rest of their traits are otherwise the same. There is a front facing lilac coloured bust showing their colourful fins and another one retracting one of their eyes to lick it with their tongue. Eighth image shows a side view of a red coloured bust and a orange and yellow fullbody seemingly listening to something with its large ear fins.
Ninth image is a simplistic doodle of a Wookie with big jowls and smiling. Tenth image is a bust of a Ewok with more teddy bear-like facial features. End ID.]
For fun, star wars alien redesigns! Not much to say here other than I’ve been getting into star wars lately and decided to have fun with its aliens lol.

OС challenge. Day 11. "Contrasting" Imagine a situation in which your character is talking to someone whose mood is the complete opposite.
Darren is an introvert. He does not like to communicate with people, and when he has to, he gets very tired. It just so happened that insurgent work requires communication and not the most pleasant. For example, to get important information from some too stubborn and talkative alien, who is the complete opposite of you !!! This time, in a noisy bar full of motley people, our hero meets with a Toydarian and tries to buy information from him, but cannot agree on a price. It's already time! Oh ... He probably wants to be away from both the annoying flyer and this damn cantina. Now I would like to get into bed, covering my head with a blanket))) 😢And in the morning there will be a social hangover...

“Qui-Gon returned from Tatooine with a former slave boy. According to the boy’s mother, the boy had no father.”
“A clone?” Palpatine asked uncertainly.
“Not a clone,” Dooku said. “Perhaps conceived by the Force. As Qui-Gon believes.”
Palpatine’s head snapped back. “You don’t sit on the Council. How do you know this?”
“I have my ways.”
“Does this have something to do with the prophecy you spoke of?”
“Everything. Qui-Gon believes that the boy—Anakin is his name—stands at the center of a vergence in the Force, and believes further that his finding him was the will of the Force. Blood tests were apparently performed, and the boy’s concentration of midi-chlorians is unprecedented.”
“Do you believe that he is the prophesied one?”
“The Chosen One,” Dooku amended. “No. But Qui-Gon accepts it as fact, and the Council is willing to have him tested.”
“What is known about this Anakin?”
“Very little, except for the fact that he was born into slavery nine years ago and was, until recently, along with his mother, the property of Gardulla the Hutt, then a Toydarian junk dealer.” Dooku smirked. “Also that he won the Boonta Eve Classic Podrace.”
Palpatine had stopped listening.
Nine years old … Conceived by the Force … Is it possible …
His thoughts rewound at frantic speed: to the landing platform on which he and Valorum had welcomed Amidala and her group. Actually not Amidala, but one of her look-alikes. But the sandy-haired boy, this Anakin, swathed in filthy clothing, had been there, along with a Gungan and the two Jedi. Anakin had spent the night in a tiny room in his apartment suite.
And I sensed nothing about him.
“Qui-Gon is rash,” Dooku was saying. “Despite his fixation with the living Force, he demonstrates his own contradictions by being a true believer in the prophecy—a foretelling more in line with the unifying Force.”
“Nine years old,” Palpatine said when he could. “Surely too old to be trained.”
“If the Council shows any sense.”
“And what will become of the boy then?”
Dooku’s shoulders heaved. “Though no longer a slave, he will probably be sent to rejoin his mother on Tatooine.”

[ID: Traditional pencil doodles of various star wars alien ocs. First image is a purple Toydarian with yellow irises in a brown coat and brown pilot’s hat and goggles. He is adjusting his goggles as he looks cautious to the side. Second image is a halfbody of a grey spotted Hutt with yellow eyes and his right eyelids shut permanently. He looks like he’s chatting ordinarily. Third image shows a fullbody of the Hutt and a bust of his face smiling. Fourth image shows a black Trandoshan with brown patches around her scales and with red eyes. She is wearing a white labcoat and is holding a noteboard as she looks happy but nervous. Fifth image is the Trandoshan surprised from a green four winged insect fluttering above her. End ID.]
Some star wars alien ocs, I unfortunately like the Big Space Opera now and I made guys to go with it, but in the specific way I want to see!!
I dunno their names and entire stories yet, but the Toydarian is a rebel pilot, the Hutt is a friendly old dude that runs a antique store, and the Trandoshan is a biologist who uses her taught hunting tactics to capture and study specimens.

round two is here! enjoy and make sure to kudos and comment for all the lovely creators of these works!
day one twitter thread: here
01. Curious Cultures by anonymous
“I know I am not your. . . ideal partner for this mission, but surely you’ve experienced enough that it should not be too off putting, right?” Anakin’s silence made space seem loud. “You will answer me, Anakin Skywalker, or I will have you sent back Coruscant.” “I haven’t,” or Anakin and Obi-Wan have to get married for a mission and Anakin left out a crucial fact
02. The Will of the Desert by anonymous
Anakin know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Obi-Wan is meant to be his. He just really need the Universe to gets its act together and make it happen.
03. take me out (to the ballgame) by anonymous
Obi-Wan goes to the baseball game against his wishes. He meets a handsome stranger and kisses him. (Not against his wishes)
04. thine cup spillth over by anonymous
Anakin is the son of the Force. The Chosen One. He was born to feed the Force's warriors.
05. Baby Duck Syndrome by anonymous
It is an unexpected shock when it happens because by the time Anakin is born almost all imprints are made, not natural. But Anakin’s master is a Toydarian, and there has never been a successful imprint made between a human and one of them. So as long as Anakin is useful, he does not need to know about imprinting, because it is not something that Watto can do to him, or to his mom. Then the Jedi comes, and Anakin touches his apprentice’s hand.
06. make every last moment last by anonymous
Anakin dreads the inevitable end of the war. Padmé is his wife, but Obi-Wan is his mate. He shouldn't have either . He can't keep them both forever. The future will be here before he knows it, and Anakin needs to get himself together so he can be a good husband again. So he can learn to be a good father. But he won’t be either of those things tonight. Tonight, there’s only one thing he can be.
07. just grab me and take me by anonymous
His hard cock swung between his legs as he rocked on his fingers, nearly sobbing from how it was almost right. He wanted more – he always wanted more – and this was on the edge of not enough. A hand wrapped around his hip and Anakin startled. “Look at you,” purred Obi-Wan, his other hand grazing down the length of Anakin’s bare arched back, “you couldn’t wait, baby girl?”
08. love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind by anonymous
The lack of Anakin at Obi-Wan's side was telling. Something was wrong. Obi-Wan tried to put the worry out of his head, replaying the previous night over and over. He’d spanked Anakin, but he’d done that plenty of times by now. He had also been rather strict with Anakin, but Anakin liked that. Anakin had told Obi-Wan that much a thousand times by now. Obi-Wan sighed, pushing away the datapad and pinching the bridge of his nose as he often did when he was annoyed at a situation. This time, however, he was annoyed at himself.
09. a vision of your blue eyes, so lovely by anonymous
“Let me take care of you,” Obi-Wan soothed. “No, I can’t,” Anakin’s hands ran down his forearms, up his biceps and to his chest where he grabbed desperately onto his shirt. “Why not?” Obi-Wan’s fingers threaded through Anakin’s hair, petting and carding through the short strands. Anakin felt more self conscious than he’d ever felt in his life. What if you hurt me? Was what Anakin wanted to ask. Instead, a sob racked his body and Obi-Wan’s arms went around him easily, like they always were supposed to. Or, what happens after the movie Awake if Anakin met Obi-Wan after his heart transplant.
10. Alpha|Alpha by anonymous
Obi-Wan looked at his former apprentice and smiled to himself. Anakin was the image of the perfect Alpha from the outside – he was tall, masculine, easily aggravated and hot-headed, assertive. Everything the society expected. Omegas always threw themselves at him, and Obi-Wan took unhealthy pleasure in watching them fail to seduce him.
11. Please, Devour Me? by anonymous
GFFA AU Obi-Wan and Anakin enjoy a moment alone together in Hyperspace, and Obi-Wan makes a selfish demand. -- “Like a rancor.” “A rancor?” Obi-Wan tugged at the lace with his teeth. “How insulting.” Anakin laughed but there was a tremor to his voice, the realisation that calling his beloved a rancor was probably a little more insulting than how he'd meant it. His legs fell apart even more, the skirts dipping between his thighs and Obi-Wan gripped the lace of one of the stockings in his teeth and tugged, pulling it down and over Anakin’s knee. --
12. Dream a Little Dream (Of You & Me) by anonymous
In response to a prompt by Anonymous in the SubAnakin_ObikinFest collection. Prompt:   Obi-Wan is an incubus and is frequently pulled into the dreams people have about him. It's never bothered him—it is how he feeds that part of himself and he always makes sure everyone has a good time—but it's become a bit bothersome ever since Anakin started his journey of sexual discovery and his Master is a frequent flyer in those fantasies. And it becomes difficult to walk away the more Anakin grows into a man and also into Obi-Wan's own personal wet dream. Anakin, his strong-willed and bratty Padawan, proves to be quite submissive and sweet in the land of his dreams. DNW: hard kinks
13. books and their covers by anonymous
Obi-Wan knows very well what he is. People look at his master and see a big strong alpha, and then they look at him, they see... well, the exact opposite. As a beta, he may not stand out much in the shadow of his powerful alpha master, but Obi-Wan is the only one who can make Anakin come.
14. i'd follow you down, down, down by anonymous
He watched as the Separatist ships jumped to hyperspace in a flash of blue. His own men’s ships around him began going back to the Negotiator but Anakin didn’t move. Not yet. He stared into space; the blackness of it, the stars that sparkled. There was nothing around him, and if he didn’t turn his ship around, he couldn’t see the Star Destroyer waiting for him. It was all empty, just like him. Just like their room had been when he woke up.
15. all tied up in knots by anonymous
The only thing that eases the sting of Anakin Skywalker's one-sided love affair with his roommate, Obi-Wan Kenobi, is the fact that they're also friends with benefits which means he gets some part of Obi-Wan at least a few times a week. He's made his peace with it, and his favorite part of the day is easily when his no-strings-attached fuck buddy pushes him down onto the mattress for a round of gentle, vanilla sex beneath the covers. Any part of Obi-Wan he can get, he'll take and not ask for more. That is, until he comes home early from work one night to hear Obi-Wan domming a woman in their living room, and Anakin's confronted with the knowledge that Obi-Wan is giving out parts of himself to people he's certainly never given Anakin. And that's just untenable. Follow Anakin as he tries to convince Obi-Wan to dom him, learns what BDSM even is, does paperwork, comes, gets rope burn, and maybe even gets the love of his life. Yes, in that order.
16. Taste of the Divine by anonymous
The day had seemed never-ending, filled with meeting after meeting and the infinite responsibilities of a wartime High General. Even Obi-Wan’s evening promised the sweet embrace of unrelenting work. Although, duty was the last thing on Obi-Wan’s mind when he laid eyes on what waited for him in his quarters. Or rather, who.
17. the way you bend, the way you break by anonymous
Anakin has a deeply rooted, shameful fantasy of having power taken away from him, by force. Obi-Wan, the ever sedulous and equally incorrigible partner, shares this fantasy and indulges his lover.
18. All Good Things (Come to Those Who Wait) by anonymous
“We’ve finally trained your hole to take all of me. Let’s do the same with your mouth next, shall we?" Anakin learns to trust that his Master knows what he's doing.
