Just a sampling of the foolishness and racism in the comments of Daisy’s instagram after puting up a screen cap from a bonus feature on the TFA dvd. Stay classy Star Wars fandom.
so one skywalker twin took magic lessons from a frog, killed his dad, and fucked off to an abandoned island in his bathrobe.
the other skywalker twin gunned down space nazis, hooked up with han solo, and governed the free galaxy with snark and hair like a botticelli painting.
and you’re telling me *luke* is the one i should be inspired by?
how funny is it that the star wars shipping fandom has literally gone out of its way to make the two most popular ships white couples? especially when the most likely to be canon ship with the most scenes in canon features a black man?
Obi-Wan can find an invisible planet hidden by a devious Sith Lord, Anakin can’t find his ex-best friend on his own home planet while the guy is still using his own damn name.
I know we give Obi-wan a lot of shit for leaving Luke with his real surname but Anakin really is that stupid
the perfect hiding place: the sandiest fucking planet that anakin would never set foot on again
i love padme so much like she’s a fair and successful queen at fourteen and (even more incredible than the people of naboo’s readiness to put an eigth grader in charge of like, everything) she shows no apparent hesitation at leading a charge to retake her planet and like, actually puts herself in the middle of the fight and personally fires a blaster alongside real military troops and ten years after this she gives the middle finger to the jedi council, verbally kicks anakin’s ass, and goes to rescue obi wan AND ALSO has the physical capabilities to beat the living shit out of a nexu with the same chains that held her captive and ONCE AGAIN picks up a blaster like she’s not a galactic fucking senator and holds her own in a real life battle alongside jedi masters and GOD i mean could you imagine bill clinton or smth firing a gun on a rescue mission????? no but padme did because she is honest to god one of the best star wars characters
