Wampa Profiling Is Hurtful

Why isn’t Wampa a neutral character? It’s just a native predator doing its thing in its ecosystem. Labeling it Dark Side is anthropocentric, colonialist bigotry!

  • Jawas aren't necessarily ls or ds, but I'm actually leaning more towards ds out of the binary choices.
  • the dark side is simply nature in its natural form. Your prejudgments reflect jedi teachings and their self-serving biases.
  • It's even not anthropocentric, it's Republic(or Jedi?)-centric. :) Poor thing just happened to attack Luke and so marked as DS.

    P.S. Actually marking anyone but force users as LS/DS makes little sense as life and morale of common people isn't dictated by the Force. But the game has it's rules...
  • If it wasn’t labeled we couldn’t use it in TB which would be sad.

    Wampa would if Hoda told him to do it.

    L3 hugs would probably get weird.
