So They Don’t Get Their Hands Dirty - Blog Posts

Episode I and ethical issues:

Robots who talk, show emotions, and communicate with one another being treated as disposable, non-sentient objects is really fucking creepy.

Only slightly more creepy than Anakin’s matter-of-fact understanding of his status as a slave, how his survival is dependent on his monetary value and the possibility of being blown up for disobedience.

Just as creepy as Qui-gon’s absolute failure to express any sort of serious ethical concern over his use of Anakin or the larger issue of slavery.
