| Topic | Gamespot review of Dune-10/10. "Relies on white savior trope" |

Interesting, could I have an example of an actual white savior and what circumstances of the saved contribute to you applying that trope? As was already said, Dune is pretty much the original one. The circumstances in question generally involve the affected people having a culture that is considered primitive to that of the white savior, and the white savior, who pities the savages, will defend them against other uncaring white people, or from an oppressive faction within their own people. A somewhat popular example of this is District 9 where aliens, despite all their advanced Knowledge, can't seem to do shit to change the battery of their space ship until a white guy decides to help them out. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...
