#There’s something to chew on about movies in which characters are unambiguously death camp or concentration camp survivors

why the andor fandom own you money? :o

the answer might have something to do with a) the whole fandom treatment of narkina 5 and b) the treatment of the removal of cassian’s sandals (a Mexican fan pointed out that they’re huaraches too, I think this is an essential part of the intersectional analysis here) as some kind of Easter egg foot fetish content that the creators had No idea what they did, throwing this out to the Thirsty fans, rather than an explicit reference to the Shoah. Fandom in general not clocking that the removed shoes are used as an international symbol of genocide rememberance by Jewish and Indigenous peoples to honor and remember members of our peoples who were murdered

#I’m not Mexican but I am mestiza & Jewish so this is some nuanced territory #Furthermore while I’m well are that Diego Luna isn’t Jewish - and neither is Felicity jones for that matter #There’s something to chew on about movies in which characters are unambiguously death camp or concentration camp survivors #So there’s Jewish death in the script #But these characters are never treated as living Jews or represented as living Jews in aus and fixits #This is a nuanced area that’s more symptomatic or Hollywood as a whole than these specific shows but it’s sure something to me #Shoah Tw #If you are going to symbolize the deaths of our people as the worst thing that could possibly happen #Why can you not have our lives and cultures even if they’re uncomfortable to you?
