People going like "Obi-Wan understands slavery like Anakin, because he was a slave for a month when he was thirteen" is the equivalent of saying you can't be racist because you have one black friend.

#anakin skywalker #was born in slavery #spend his formative years in slavery #his caretaker was owned #his only loved one was owned #he was owned #for 9 years #one month of slavery when you're already 13 does NOT compare #what is wrong with you people #this is not the argument #Obi-wan shouldn't be respectful o Anakin's slave background because they have had the same background #because they have NOT #but because EVERYONE should respect that kind of horror and trauma #even if Watto was a 'kind' master #just because he didn't beat up Anakin or Shmi #star wars meta #star wars #rant over #please and thank you
