I saw this on /pol/:
It shows image search results on Google for star wars jew character, and the first several results are all Watto, a character whose Wikipedia article includes a "Comparisons to antisemitic caricatures" section.
I figured Google would probably fix that pretty quick, so I tried the search myself to see if I would get the same results. I did, mostly, but then right in the middle of the search results there was this:
The link is to -- who knew such a page existed? -- https://www.instagram.com/popular/star-wars-jewish-character/, where you can "watch reels about star wars jewish character from people around the world." None of the videos -- sorry, I mean "reels" -- appears to feature Watto or to have anything to do with Jews. It's just a random assortment of Star Wars content -- and for some reason the very first one is this one comparing Yoda to the Hermit of the Tarot. I'd never watched an "Instagram reel" and was pretty okay with that, but sync is sync, so I clicked. As expected, there was no mention of anything remotely Jewish.
Actually, come to think of it, I can supply the missing Jewish link myself. The Golden Dawn associated each card of the Major Arcana with a letter of the Hebrew alphabet, and the letter assigned to the Hermit was, you guessed it, yodh.

William,

Me, not really being a big fan of Star Wars,
( Marshall was however)
I was not really into the Star Wars genre as Marshall.
We went to the theaters to see Star Wars yes,
and Marshall has watched it
numerous times throughout the years online,
but I personally never was attracted to those
' fantasy' type genres, as my paranormal
experiences and dreams
were more than enough 'out- of- this- world'
experiences and more than I could handle.
I also was never into 'mind altering'
substances either. However there have been those who
were around me that were, so I'm not judging.
Again, being familiar with the Star War's plot I am aware
of many of the central characters, including Yoda.
Yoda was one of my favorites.
I also knew of course, the catchphrase
' may the force be with you' and knew
of its meaning, but after reading your post today I decided
to google Star Wars on wiki and when reading the wiki
page, I thought:
hmmm, this sounds very much like the Siddhis.
Copy and paste:
The Force is a metaphysical, mysterious,
and ubiquitous power in the Star Wars fiction franchise.
Within the galaxy in which the franchise is set,
characters refer to the Force as an energy
that ***interconnects all things,
***maintaining cosmic balance.**
Particularly "Force-sensitive" characters,
***usually through rigorous self-discipline,***
training, and mindfulness,
are able to connect to the Force
and thus access and ***wield certain supernatural abilities
such as limited degrees of *** superhuman strength,
telekinesis, and clairvoyance.***
Heroes like the Jedi, a peacekeeping group of
*** warrior-monks, largely seek to
"become one with the Force",
matching their personal wills with "the will of the Force".
This is evidenced by their ***ability to channel its powers,
which they do towards selfless and beneficial goals.***
Meanwhile, the Sith and other ***villains try to bend***
the additional abilities gained through
the Force toward their own*** selfish and destructive desires.***
Throughout the franchise,
this distinction is referred as the
**** light side versus the dark side of the Force***
In the conflict between the light and dark sides,
characters' actions are often described as either
helping to bring balance to the Force or, its opposite,
causing a disturbance in the Force"".

William,
part 2
All of the above describes, at least to me,
the E L-even force ( 11:11 ) exactly to a T
and what I believe
when describing my personal puzzle pieces and just
recently shared in my comment regarding me
paying back a 19 Karmic debt.
I believe that the high vibrational soul
does NOT want to be here trapped in this
duality dimension and its S L O W gravity energy,
incarceration.
However I think this dimension is like a school where lessons
must be learned..... and taught.
So a 'necessity ' you might say. Like having
to do homework.
I believe the soul's goal is to evolve
until we become as light as Maat's feather and no longer
have to incarnate/incarcerate in a physical matter body.
That concept is described in the wiki article
and to which I agree, as 'cosmic balance'.
In 1998 , when Marshall and I bought our first computer
I was able to travel even further out to find information
to research about my paranormal experiences which
in the early 2000's included the work of Joseph Campbell
and Carl Jung.
Recall I shared that I ' found' Joseph Campbell around
2003, when I had a dream about my grandmother Sarah
who died in 1965. I started having the recurring levitation
dreams after she died.
In a dream in 2003 I asked my grandmother
if she had ever seen daddy
( my father). My father died in 1974.
My grandmother replied: No, he's 'over there'.
I then asked her if daddy had reincarnated again,
and she replied that I would have to ask Campbell
about that. " He knows all of the mystical stuff", she said.
When awakening from that dream, I googled mystical
Campbell and lo and behold I found Joseph. However
the webpage about Campbell that I found read:
Mythologist Joseph Campbell.
Many many years later, it came to me one day out of the blue
that grandma said ' mythological Campbell' not mystical.
My waking ego mind changed mythical to mystical
because I did not have a waking frame of reference
to mythology at that time.
I wasn't surprised to find in my research that Campbell
worked with Lucus on Star Wars.
My point being and I absolutely believe
that we ALL have the ability
to tap into the Sacred Science Knowledge as it
is just a power source and like all power sources
it can be and most absolutely has been corrupted
by the few who have mastered and manipulated
this power source and uses it against us.
That's the big picture spiritual war I speak of.
I bet the farm that Lucas, Campbell, Jung et.al were/are
all Rosys . Whether they were/are good 11's or bad 11's
I can't really say but I would guess they were/are
the good 11's as they have
unveiled the secret, albeit cloaked.
