#im not familiar enough with what was going on politically in the 90s/2000s

The accents weren’t the whole reason the Trade Federation was racist?

maybe its just a me thing and im seeing stuff that isnt there but the combo of the accents (which were apparently…. white british men doing thai accents??) and the look of the neimodians and the clothes (tho everyone has asian inspired clothes in star wars; specifically they are reminiscent of court officials in historical china) and them being an evil corporate entity ….

just reminds me of like the fear of chinas growing economic power in the west ? (at one time this also was a fear people had about Japan)

sorry my cat desperately needs my attention apparently so this isnt super well thought out

i might be reading too much into it and im sure it wasnt like super intentional. most star wars racism seems to be george lucas being a white american and just not realizing it could come across that way.
