9->''"What about [[Film/ThePhantomMenace Mace Windu]]?", you ask. "He's a totally perfect Jedi warrior." That's true, but I see your Mace Windu and raise you one Jar Jar Binks. Much like Watto embraces Jewish stereotypes of the crooked merchant, Jar Jar is a CGI explosion of outdated, foolish, broken English minstrel shows.''

12The Space Jew is an alien, monster, animal, or other nonhuman creature that embodies stereotypical aspects of a real-world racial, ethnic, or religious stereotype, whether Jewish, black, Asian, white, or whatever. Sometimes this trope is played intentionally, while other times it might simply be a subconscious or accidental move on the part of the authors.
13
14Compare FantasticRacism and HaveYouTriedNotBeingAMonster. Often overlaps with NationalAnimalStereotypes, when an animal that is traditionally associated with the country will be portrayed as a stereotypical person of that nation. It may also overlap with the ReptilianConspiracy--though more overtly antisemitic versions of that theory try to "explain" why ''actual'' Jewish people are [[GreedyJew monstrous]], whether because Jews are secretly reptilian themselves or because they're mere pawns of the actual reptilians.
15
16Don't mix this trope up with FantasyCounterpartCulture, which deals with fantasy/sci-fi cultures that stand in for real-life cultures but don't necessarily exhibit the stereotypes of whomever they are standing in for. Simply having a non-human character being racially or culturally-coded, even as being part of a historically oppressed or marginalized group, '''does not qualify''' for this trope unless they veer into heavily stereotypical territory. See also UnfortunateImplications.
17
18Not to be confused with SpaceAmish, SpaceCossacks, SpaceRomans, SpaceElves, or actual [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace JEWS IN SPACE!]] Actual religious practices in a non-Earth setting would be more in-line with CrystalDragonJesus than this.
19
20
21'''Again: This trope is ''not'' about [[JustForFun/IThoughtItMeant actual Jewish people in or from outer space!]]'''

24!!Examples:
25[[foldercontrol]]
26
27[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
28* ''Anime/{{Gankutsuou}}'': As part of the premise (''Literature/TheCountOfMonteCristo'' [-InSpace-]), foreign characters like Ali, Haydée, etc. are aliens. The series uses the term "Eastern Space" for locations that were in Turkey/the Middle East in the novel, and the Carneval of Rome take place on the Moon. This somehow makes the story ''less'' [[ValuesDissonance racist]] than the original.
29* ''Manga/{{Gintama}}'' has the premise that rather than the GunboatDiplomacy of history, Edo-era Japan experienced an AlienInvasion. Thus, actual aliens take the place of "nasty gaijin" in wielding disproportionate power over the country.
30* ''Anime/MomotarosSeaEagles'' and ''Anime/MomotarosDivineSeaWarriors'' are UsefulNotes/WorldWarII propaganda cartoons in which an army of adorable talking animals stab, shoot, bayonet, and blow up demons, who are basically white people [[HornedHumanoid with horns]]. ''Momotaro's Divine Sea Warriors'' also features three monkeys that are drawn to strongly resemble stereotypical African tribesmen, but they represent the Southeast Asia countries Japan is supposed to be leading.
31* One of the major reasons ''Anime/BeastWarsII'' will ''never'' be released in America is because the Jointron brothers are a hodgepodge of offensive Mexican stereotypes. They wear sombreros, speak GratuitousSpanish, love to party, and are loud, dirty, and lazy. Oh, and they ''transform into bugs''.
32* ''Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato'' originally has the Gamilians fashioned after Europe, the White Comet Empire after America, and the Bolans after Soviet Russia. In the reboot ''Anime/SpaceBattleshipYamato2199'', Gamilans are so stereotypically German that they even have a space Austria - Zalts.
33* ''Anime/VoltesV'': [[TheEmpire The Boazanian Empire]] is essentially 18th century [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace Space]] France. A planet 14,000 light years away from Earth, the cruel nobles dress like [[AristocratsAreEvil French aristocrats]] and live lavishly, while the [[HumanAliens lower class]] are forced into slavery and endless labour. The Boazanian Empire aims to colonize the whole galaxy to keep the slave supply fresh, but in a shocking turn of events, [[spoiler: the slaves, led by [[FallenPrince Gohl]], rise up, in a rebellion that has heavy parallels to UsefulNotes/TheFrenchRevolution, aided by humans from Planet Earth and their CombiningMecha]]. The PrettyBoy EvilPrince antagonist also has a few similarities to UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte.
34[[/folder]]
35
36[[folder:Comic Books]]
37* The Dominators, in DC Comics' ''[[ComicBook/InvasionDCComics Invasion!]]'' and subsequent appearances. Yellow skin, huge sharp teeth, bony clawed fingers, they resemble nothing so much as the [[MediaNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks Golden Age]] [[YellowPeril Yellow Claw]] except they have red circles on their foreheads.
38* In ''ComicBook/FritzTheCat'', crows stand in for black people and rats stand in for Chinese people. The former carries over into the [[WesternAnimation/FritzTheCat two]] [[WesternAnimation/TheNineLivesOfFritzTheCat movies]].
39* In Robert Asprin's ''Literature/MythAdventures'' fantasy novels, the race of "deveels" are hard-bargaining master traders and look like traditional red-skinned hoofed devils. When Creator/PhilFoglio adapted the first tome in the series as a comic book, he tossed in a lot of Jewish references and got hit with enough complaints that he (sort of) apologized in a later issue.
40%%* ''ComicBook/TopTen'': Robots are treated as urban low-income communities, listening to a hip-hop derivative called "scrap" music, and frequently being accused of taking people's jobs (a la illegal immigrants). They are called ''clickers'' by bigots, a term borrowed from the film ''Creation Of The Humanoids''.%%That sounds more like unsubtle FantasticRacism if the robots themselves don't embody the negative stereotypes%%
41%%** ''The Forty Niners'' has vampires with vaguely Italian or Russian qualities (they claim to be Hungarians), to fit with their GenericEthnicCrimeGang image.%%
42%%** ''Smax'': In Jeff's home universe, elves are treated much like Romani (he accuses them of abducting children and swindling people) while his dwarfish adopted parents resemble Jewish AlterKocker stereotypes.%%
43[[/folder]]
44
45[[folder:Fan Works]]
46* ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'':
47%%** Their version of Jeice is from Space Australia, which appears to have everything Earth Australia has, only more... spacey, such as Space Dingos.%%That's not what this trope is%%
48** Any character who has an unusual skin color is likely to be treated as being African American. Piccolo is the most prominent example, but any Namekian, Android 15, and Mr. Popo (who is ''literally'' black) also get in on it.
49-->'''[[RacistGrandma Dr. Briefs]]:''' Finally we're rid of all those dang n-
50-->'''Bulma:''' DAD!
51-->'''Dr. Briefs:''' I was going to say "Namekians".
52-->'''Bulma:''' [{{Beat}}] No you weren't.
53-->'''Dr. Briefs:''' No I wasn't.
54* ''WebVideo/UltraFastPony'' portrays Fluttershy as a former slave with the vocal mannerisms of [[UncleTomfoolery a Stepin Fetchit]]. She only listens to blues music, and insists that only other pegasi have [[NWordPrivileges P-word privileges]]. Oddly, the "pegasi as African Americans" metaphor isn't consistently applied to the rest of the cast: the other pegasus in the main cast, Rainbow Dash, is a ValleyGirl instead.
55[[/folder]]
56
57[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
58* Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon:
59** The five crows from ''WesternAnimation/{{Dumbo}}'' portray black people, especially the leader, [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Crow_laws Jim Crow]], who was ironically voiced by the white Cliff Edwards (who also voiced Jiminy Cricket). As his name is never mentioned in the film, he was later, rather easily, renamed "Dandy Crow" to minimize controversy.
60** ''WesternAnimation/LadyAndTheTramp'' features Si and Am, two Siamese cats who represent YellowPeril stereotypes, speaking broken English and having slitlike eyes, and being pointlessly malicious towards Lady.
61** In ''WesternAnimation/TheAristocats'', Scat Cat's gang of musical alleycats are speaking with a variety of accents, but the only one who gets into this territory is the Siamese cat (of course), who speaks broken English, plays the drums with chopsticks, and talks about fortune cookies.
62** ''WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}}'':
63*** Sunflower the servant centaurette in the ''Pastoral Symphony'' segment is a donkey from the waist down and a black girl from the waist up. She's so badly stereotyped that she got {{Orwellian Retcon}}ned out of the 1969 re-release and all subsequent releases. There are also two zebra-based centaurettes who are black from the waist up, though their facial features are significantly less stereotypical. The other centaurs and centaurettes are horse-based and white (well, they have white features; they're an AmazingTechnicolorPopulation) from the waist up. In addition, when the centaurs pair up romantically, [[LikeGoesWithLike each pair is a perfect color match]]. The "odd man out" centaur, a blue male, is dejected and lonely until his proper match, a blue female, appears.
64*** In the ''Nutcracker Suite'' segment, red-capped mushrooms represent Chinese people in the "Chinese Dance," and thistles and orchids represent Russian dancers in the "Russian Dance."
65** The comical, jazz-singing, [[JiveTurkey jive-talking]] monkeys from ''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967'' are sometimes accused of being black stereotypes. Their desire to become "real humans" doesn't help matters much. Their orangutan leader, King Louie, was [[WhatCouldHaveBeen originally]] going to be voiced by Music/LouisArmstrong to play him, but they were aware of the UnfortunateImplications that would've been seen in casting a black man in the role and cast Italian-American jazz singer [[TheDanza Louis Prima]] instead. They also made sure that Louis was lighter-skinned than the actual human in the scene, Mowgli himself.
66%%** The meerkats in ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKingOneAndAHalf'' are a group of Animal Jews in both personal relationships and in that they employ gratuitous Yiddish. They are also voiced by Jews.%%FCC%%
67%%** Tito the chihuahua from ''WesternAnimation/OliverAndCompany'' embodies Mexican stereotypes and is voiced by Cheech Marin to boot.%%Having a character be Mexican is not this trope%%
68%%** The mice representing different countries in the Rescue Aid Society in ''WesternAnimation/TheRescuers'' embody various cultural, ethnic, and nationality stereotypes, though most of the stereotypes are pretty gentle.%%FCC%%
69%%** Jose Carioca from ''WesternAnimation/SaludosAmigos'' is Brazilian and embodies Brazilian stereotypes. Likewise, Panchito Pistoles from ''WesternAnimation/TheThreeCaballeros'' is Mexican and embodies Mexican stereotypes. Their NationalStereotypes are gentle, though.%%
70%%** Ray from ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'' seems to be the firefly equivalent of a Cajun hillbilly. Also, Louis the alligator is based on African American jazz musicians (like his namesake Music/LouisArmstrong) and is voiced by African American actor Michael-Leon Wooley.%%
71%%** The "Heffalumps and Woozles" NightmareSequence in ''WesternAnimation/TheManyAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh'' features one turban-clad Woozle as a MysticalIndia-style SnakeCharmer.%%
72* Creator/DonBluth:
73** ''WesternAnimation/AnAmericanTail'' uses mice and cats as stand-ins for, respectively, the oppressed (starting with the protagonist family, who are Russian Jewish mice) and their oppressors across various cultures in a way that doesn't really count as this trope, but the sequel, ''Fievel Goes West'' throws in some culturally-insensitive Native American mice. A later sequel has another group of Native mice belonging to the Lenape tribe.
74** The original {{Big Lipped Alligator|Moment}} from ''WesternAnimation/AllDogsGoToHeaven'' could be considered this for black people, given the bone through his nose, the deep-voiced jazz number, and... well... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin the big lips]]. He also apparently rules a tribe of sewer rats who resemble your stereotypical HollywoodNatives, wearing SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset and other tribal garb. His voice actor is an African American man named Ken Page, who went on to voice Oogie Boogie in ''WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas'' a few years later.
75* Creator/DreamWorksAnimation:
76** The bees in ''WesternAnimation/BeeMovie'' represent Jewish-American society, which [[WriteWhatYouKnow isn't surprising]], since the Jewish-American comedian Creator/JerrySeinfeld voiced the lead and was also one of the writers and producers. The movie includes a StealthPun when Seinfeld's character mentions falling in love and another bee (played by Creator/MatthewBroderick, also of Jewish descent) responds: "Was she Beeish? Not a [[WhiteAngloSaxonProtestant WASP]]! Your parents will kill you."
77** Earlier on, ''WesternAnimation/{{Antz}}'' used another "WASP" pun with Chip and Muffy, two New England-accented yellow jackets based on WhiteAngloSaxonProtestant stereotypes.
78[[/folder]]

80[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
81* The goblins in ''Film/HarryPotter'' are squat creatures who run the banks, as in the source material. The films also give them long noses, leading to further comparisons with Jews. ''Film/FantasticBeastsAndWhereToFindThem'' introduces Gnarlack, by far the most stereotypically Jewish-looking goblin, played by Jewish actor Creator/RonPerlman to boot.
82* The ''Franchise/StarWars'' universe, [[GenreThrowback being love-letters to films that didn't know any better]], contains a few examples:
83** Watto, who originated in the prequel films, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watto#Allegations_of_antisemitism raised concerns about being a Jewish caricature]] via being a hook-nosed, penny-pinching merchant and slave owner. It doesn't help that Watto in the second film even wears a beard and black hat vaguely similar to a style favored by Hasidic (ultra-Orthodox) Jews (although there have been claims about him being modeled after stereotypes about Italians or Arabs). Perhaps to dissuade these accusations, ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' featured the king of Watto's species, who has a vaguely British accent and is depicted as a [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy proud warrior]] despite his small stature.
84** The ''Franchise/StarWars'' prequel films also feature the Neimoidians -- a race of slit-eyed, inscrutable, unscrupulous villain aliens who speak with a vaguely Asian accent, wear UsefulNotes/QingDynasty-inspired robes and hats, and threaten the galaxy with their trade routes and mass-production technology. Many English-speaking critics saw the race as a collection of Asian stereotypes. Interestingly, every localization of the film gives the species new accents. In Germany, for example, they got French accents, and in France, Italy, Spain, Latin America and the Czech Republic, they got Russian accents. They also have some similarity with TheGreys in terms of design, who also have been accused of this trope.
85** The Jawas are thinly veiled Space Romani, collecting scrap equipment and being chased off by "regular people" who accuse them of theft and peddling inferior goods.
86** The Sand People/Tusken Raiders in the original trilogy come across as a violent caricature of desert-dwelling [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedouin Bedouin]]-like groups, being low-tech, desert-dwelling nomads wearing robes and head coverings. Lucas apparently intended the species to resemble the depiction of American Indians in old Wild West movies through their violent behavior toward the more technologically advanced settlers. The females also wear [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_transport#Cradle_board papoose boards]]. Whether Lucas realized the UnfortunateImplications or not is anybody's guess. ''Series/TheMandalorian'', at least, manages to take steps towards correcting this by portraying the Tusken Raiders as more open to negotiations and showing the Mandalorian as sympathetic towards their apparent claim that they are Tatooine's true natives and everyone else is invading, while ''Series/TheBookOfBobaFett'' shows the species in a very sympathetic light, with their own code of honor and principles and no desire to mindlessly loot and plunder, rather than to live in accordance with their traditions. In ''VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'' the PlayerCharacter can even discuss their philosophy and history with a tribe leader, although [[ScaryDogmaticAliens asking any difficult questions will make them try to kill you]].
87** Many critics accused Jar Jar Binks of resembling black caricatures in {{Minstrel Show}}s and early American cinema, highlighting his broken English, clumsiness, naivety, and shuffling gait, all typical traits of minstrel characters. Physically, he has large nostrils and his "lips" make up half of his face, both traits commonly exaggerated in [[{{blackface}} black caricatures]]. The Gungan accent, which sounds vaguely Caribbean, doesn't help the issue, and his large floppy ears have been compared to dreadlocks. Jar-Jar's first lines in the prequels, "Me-sa your humble servant," call slavery and domestic servitude to mind. The character was voiced and motion-captured by black actor Creator/AhmedBest, who denied any attempt to make Jar Jar a black caricature. Other Gungans aren't as buffoonish but maintain the same visual traits and accent.
88** [[http://nerdbastards.com/2013/01/25/is-this-star-wars-toy-racist/ Jabba the Hutt]] has been accused of embodying Asian and Middle Eastern stereotypes. He has slitted eyes, smokes a hookah, and has a harem. [[WhatCouldHaveBeen At one point]], [[http://www.cracked.com/article_21408_5-characters-you-wont-believe-are-based-real-people.html his design was even going to include a fez]]. However, later creators gave him and other Hutts Romanian-sounding surnames and TheMafiya vibes.
89** Sy Snootles, the lead singer in Jabba's band, was given many more SassyBlackWoman touches in the 1997 "special edition" of ''Return of the Jedi'', including [[FacialProfiling thick lips]] and a husky, semi-masculine voice.
90** Bib Fortuna, Jabba's [[TheDragon Dragon]], plays on white stereotypes, given he is an EvilAlbino who [[SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil enslaved]] [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything two female members of his own species]] (who had different skin colours, due to Twi'Leks being an AmazingTechnicolorPopulation) and putting them into GoGoEnslavement.
91** Also in ''Return of the Jedi'', Ewoks are an {{ursine|Aliens}} version of HollywoodNatives. They even {{capture|dByCannibals}} our heroes, [[TribalCarry carry Han and Luke on a spit]] with the intention of [[CannibalTribe roasting them alive]], and [[CargoCult worship C-3PO as a god]]. After Leia convinces the tribe to leave the others alone, they join forces with the heroes against TheEmpire, at which point the Ewoks become more sympathetic and heroic {{Noble Savage}}s.
92** In ''Film/RogueOne'', it turns out that the faction of the Rebel Alliance who the others shun as too extremist is based on a desert world with a reputation for religious fervor, that is the source of an important mineral that the Empire [[NoBloodForPhlebotinum wants to seize]]. [[UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror Subtle.]] That said, when the band first appeared in ''The Clone Wars'' they were transparent French Resistance stand-ins (sans accents).
93%%** The Life Day holiday celebrated by Wookies and originating in ''Film/TheStarWarsHolidaySpecial'' shares some traits with Hanukkah, being an originally minor holiday that gained in prominence due to a desire to reconnect and maintain one's culture after a large diaspora.%%Not an example%%
94* The ''Film/TransformersFilmSeries'' features a few robotic examples:
95** Jazz is a somewhat JiveTurkey Transformer, possibly in reference to Scatman Crothers, who was the original voice of the character in the cartoons. He's also [[BlackDudeDiesFirst the only Autobot who dies]]. According to at least one interview, Jazz was killed because he was the only Autobot in the movie who ''hadn't'' already died at least once. It's also been claimed that it was because Jazz is the third most popular character after Optimus and Bumblebee.
96** "The Twins," Skids and Mudflap, drew controversy for embodying a number of black stereotypes in their appearance and behavior. Creator/MichaelBay alternately claims that they were meant to mock [[PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy wiggers]] or that there was no racial parodying going on at all.
97* In his review of ''[[{{Franchise/Predator}} Predator 2]]'', Creator/RogerEbert accused the alien's design, which includes tentacles that resemble dreadlocks, of encouraging the audience to connect its menace with fear of black men. It's rather interesting to note that the second film's hero is himself a black man, but it also includes a number of dreadlocked black crooks.
98* Played with in ''Film/TheBrotherFromAnotherPlanet'', in which an alien who looks like a black man escapes slavery on his own planet and tries to hide out in a black ghetto on Earth. When two of his species track him down, they of course look like white men, but it turns out that they consider the "brother" an inferior race not because of his skin color, but because he's got [[FantasticRacism three toes]].
99%%* In ''Film/TheLionTheWitchAndTheWardrobe'', the White Witch's dwarfs are played by Indian actors in Mongol garb.%%That sounds like Fake Nationality or Interchangeable Asian Cultures, not this trope%%
100%%* The Nebulons in ''Film/Arena1989'' conform to Yiddish stereotypes.%%How so?%%
101* The Gremlins in ''Film/{{Gremlins|1984}}'' have been accused of displaying negative stereotypical behaviour of African-Americans, particularly African-American teens. In one particular scene, unruly Gremlins take over a bar while wearing sunglasses and "street clothing," smoking, drinking, gambling, fighting, listening to wild music, engaging in prostitution, and breakdancing (although that was a ShoutOut to ''Film/Flashdance''). Some critics accused the film of exploiting white fear of black culture invading white suburbia. Of course, the film also plays BlackDudeDiesFirst straight, with the Gremlin Earl attacking the biology teacher Mr. Hanson. The Gremlins might be based on [[{{delinquents}} rowdy]] [[TeensAreMonsters youths]] in general, rather than African-American teens in particular. [[Film/Gremlins2TheNewBatch The sequel]], perhaps to dissuade these accusations, had the main antagonist known as the Brain Gremlin be portrayed as more of AffablyEvil NonActionBigBad with a [[EvilBrit Mid-Atlantic accent]].
102* In ''Film/JohnCarter'', the religious-fanatic Therns, who in the film are responsible for spurring on the war between Helium and Zodanga, have been accused of filling the stereotype of Jews as driving nations to fight each other. Important to note that this was ''not'' the case in the [[Literature/JohnCarterOfMars original novels]], though they have their own ValuesDissonance problems.
103* The [[WackyWaysideTribe Fireys]] in ''Film/{{Labyrinth}}'' have Caribbean accents and the requisite laid-back attitude, singing a HakunaMatata-esque number to coax the protagonist away from her quest during a BigLippedAlligatorMoment.
104%%* In ''Film/CaptainMarvel2019'' [[spoiler:TheReveal that the Skrulls were GoodAllAlong draws direct parallels to Jews fleeing from Nazi oppression. They're a peaceful race who have been unfairly targeted as a convenient other due to something they have no responsibility for in order to justify a militaristic, racist, and expansionistic empire's ambitions and create a convenient scapegoat. Even the Kree anti-Skrull propaganda of ParanoiaFuel parallels how Jewish bankers are often portrayed as an AncientConspiracy by anti-Semites. Their history also carries are also obvious parallels to the history of the Jewish people, in how they lost their ancestral home as a punishment for their refusal to submit before a mighty Empire and had their people scattered wide and far as a result, and they now have to assimilate into other populations to scrape by, all while they are looking for a new place to call home.]]%%That's just Fantastic Racism then.%%
105%% ''Film/{{Nosferatu}}'': The vampire Count Orlok is a wealthy Eastern European man with a large, hooked nose whom all the Germans fear and hate. The code he uses to communicate with his followers includes a number of symbols resembling Hebrew letters. He's also associated with rats and the plague, both of which were common symbols associated with Jews in Germany during the time the film was made.
106[[/folder]]
107
108[[folder:Literature]]
109* The 1940s ''Seetee'' series by Creator/JackWilliamson takes place in a ColonizedSolarSystem. In the first novel the officers of a Guard cruiser seem to have been selected entirely on their resemblance to propaganda stereotypes--there's a "sly and stupid" Ukrainian from the Jovian Soviet, a shifty-looking Italian from the Martian Reich, and a sycophantic Japanese-Venusian with the requisite glasses and [[AsianBuckTeeth buck teeth]].
110* Creator/TerryPratchett's ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' series frequently uses {{Fantasy Counterpart Culture}}s, but there are occasional examples of this trope detectable:
111%%** The diminutive and violent Nac Mac Feegle are a combination of the kinder ViolentGlaswegian stereotypes with a touch of Franchise/TheSmurfs and bits of traditional fairy lore.%%FCC%%
112** The Disc's dwarfs started out as a fairly positive parody of [[OurDwarvesAreAllTheSame generic fantasy dwarfs]] -- complete with a love of gold and rather touchy clannish attitudes, but honorable and reliable. Then, over the course of the series, their culture developed more and more parallels to real-world Jewish culture, notably a strong attachment to ''tradition''; there were [[WordOfGod hints]] that Jewish readers spotted the parallels before the author did himself, ironically given that [[Theatre/TheRingOfTheNibelung some older fantasies]] may have used dwarfs as ''hostile'', antisemitic parodies of Judaism. Although the novels' view of dwarfs (and by the analogy, Judaism) remained essentially positive, their culture was shown to include a bigoted, fundamentalist element that has interesting resemblances to extreme ultra-orthodox Judaism.\
113In later books, especially ''Literature/RaisingSteam'', the status of the bigoted traditionalist sect becomes more of an allegory for Islamic terrorism: these groups are so fervently convinced of their righteousness that they are willing to break their own rules and massively slaughter innocents, including their own people, to prevent their beliefs being overtaken by more moderate ones or their culture being influenced by a foreign power. There is an acknowledged threat of terrorism as a destabilizing force in the region, and this is only prevented because the rulers on the Disc have [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure much cooler heads]] than some in real life, plus the Dwarfs ultimately have a central authority figure in the Low King, even if he doesn't have absolute power.
114** Trolls are occasionally - though not consistently - coded as black, which would be fine if they weren't also mostly DumbMuscle who frequently clash with dwarves.
115* ''Literature/BattlefieldEarth'' contained an effeminate, weak, but highly intelligent servant race of the evil Psychlos, known as the ''Chinko''. This was [[AuthorTract probably intentional]], as Creator/LRonHubbard said that the main problem he had with China was that it had Chinese living there. Note that Hubbard used a different word here than "Chinese". In the film, they were called ''clinkos'', but still had the exact same behavior and voice.
116** Though Hubbard probably wouldn't have known it, ''chinko'' is also the Japanese word for "(small) penis."
117** That Scientology uses the word "wog", dated but still offensive British slang for someone from the Indian subcontinent or for Arabs to refer to an unbeliever, might be another reflection of Hubbard's views on race.
118%%** The Psychlos themselves are a race of money-grubbing, sexist, drug-abusing PlanetLooters, who have been turned into the monsters they are by a group called the Catrists, an AlwaysChaoticEvil faction of evil, totalitarian charlatans who use ruthless persecution and medical {{brainwashing}} to maintain their position of power over the Psychlos. In short, an embodiment of all of Hubbard's (and, by extension, Scientology's) hatred of the psychiatric profession.%%Psychiatrists aren't a race%%
119%%-->'''[[http://www.sptimes.com/News/051200/news_pf/Floridian/Battlefield_of_dreams.shtml Hubbard:]]''' I was a bit disgusted with the way the psychologists and brain surgeons mess people up, so I wrote a fiction story based in part on the consequences that could occur if the shrinks continued to do it.%%
120** Later in the novel, Hubbard introduces a race of interuniversal bankers that are apparently descended from [[LoanShark sharks]] (or local equivalents). They were short, big-nosed, and thought of nothing but cash, [[spoiler:going so far as to attempt to foreclose on the Earth after the humans free it from the Psychlos]].
121* Deconstructed in Norman Spinrad's ''Literature/TheIronDream'', a book [[FramingDevice presented as]] a work by [[RichardNixonTheUsedCarSalesman a science fiction writer]] named UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler, where the AlwaysChaoticEvil mutants are obvious stand-ins for Russians and/or other ethnic groups, with the worst of the lot clearly stand-ins for Jews. At the end of the book, a reviewer dismisses the idea that Hitler was writing about Jews -- after all, no one would seriously believe that the notoriously anti-Semitic Russian communists are being controlled by Jews, right?
122* "Submicroscopic" by S.P. Meek and its sequel have three factions of aliens [[ColorCodedForYourConvenience differentiated by skin color]]. One forms the heroes, one's a group of giant but stupid savages that constantly attack them, and one is technologically advanced but ethically stunted. Guess which corresponds to which colors? (Admittedly, one of the technologically advanced folk who had a grandparent from the heroic faction is portrayed as a WorthyOpponent, but the protagonist [[spoiler:doesn't hesitate to kill him, saying that his death was saddening but [[IDidWhatIHadToDo necessary]].]]
123* Creator/HBeamPiper's ''Space Viking'' has the Gilgameshers, a mercantile people for whom haggling appears to be the planetary sport (one reviewer noted, "sadly, we are not given glimpses of the Gilgameshers accusing Trask of wanting to starve their wives and children"). It's specifically stated that they deserve admiration for having rebuilt a space-going civilization from the ground up, and "they had religious objections to violence, though they kept these within sensible limits, and were able and willing to fight with fanatical ferocity in defense." They are also noted for their "maze of dietary and other taboos in which they hid from others," which makes them generally disliked. Lampshaded when the remarks that "everyone was in favor of running out the Gilgameshers" reminds Trask of Hitler, who got into power in the First Century Pre-Atomic "because everyone was in favor of running out the Christians or the Moslems or the Albigensians or something."
124* Blackjack, Percy's [[{{Pegasus}} winged horse]] and SapientSteed from the ''Literature/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians'' series has been accused of being an African-American caricature. He's a comical, dark-colored JiveTurkey, rescued from slavery, who constantly refers to Percy as "boss", and again, his name is Blackjack.
125%%* ''Literature/MartianTimeSlip'' by Creator/PhilipKDick has Martian Bleekmen, who resemble and are thought to be genetically similar to Earth's African Aboriginals. They're referred to by the same racial slurs, are paid below minimum wage, and are seen and treated as subhuman, although they seem as intelligent as the earthlings.%%That's just a story in which racism continues to exist%%
126%%* In the ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' series, the Volturi are a group of vampires who live in a city in Italy, are considered the undisputed authority figures in the vampire world, and apparently keep the other vampires so well-oppressed that few realize they're doing it. They were canonized years ago by humans who they tricked into thinking they were holy people who kept vampires from attacking. In ''Breaking Dawn'', one of the vampires even says of the Volturi leader that he put on a "[[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ij1ldbD7eDE/Tbwkkb0EY8I/AAAAAAAACW0/0FyAZdptWzI/s640/pope-john-paul-ii-main.jpg white hat]]" and "called himself a saint". The film of ''New Moon'' makes it even more blatant, modeling the headquarters of the Volturi after the [[http://www.romecatholic.org/assets/_resampled/resizedimage371256-St.-P-dome-inside-basilica.jpg Palace of the Vatican]].%%The Vatican is not a race%%
127* ''Franchise/TolkiensLegendarium'': Creator/JRRTolkien's depiction of the dwarves is mostly a fairly benign (and fully intentional) FantasyCounterpartCulture for the Jewish people, being dispossessed of their ancestral homeland, their prowess in war (inspired by the Old Testament), them being skilled artisans, and their continued use of their native language (which he overtly based on Semitic languages) outside of their homeland (which they actually get to reclaim in ''Literature/TheHobbit''). It's the dwarves' love of gold and occasional bouts of greed-driven madness [[GreedyJew that pushes them into this trope]], unfortunately.
128* Some readers have identified the Deep Ones of Creator/HPLovecraft's "Literature/TheShadowOverInnsmouth" as "water negroes," and their interbreeding with humans is often seen as an allegory for miscegenation. More serious Lovecraft scholars have largely dismissed this as a fairly lazy and shallow reading of the story, however, since the Deep Ones are written as far more advanced and artistically inclined than humans are, almost to the point of being a ProudScholarRace. If Lovecraft - who was undeniably a pretty racist guy - meant this story as some kind of white supremacist AuthorTract, the final chapter in particular [[TheEndingChangesEverything kind of ruined whatever point he would have been trying to make]], since it ends with [[spoiler:the main character happy to leave humanity and live with the Deep Ones under the sea]]. Therefore, a lot of readers see this story as more of a [[OurMermaidsAreDifferent take on mermaid mythology]]. Although it is a horror story, so ending it with a TomatoInTheMirror twist is hardly proof that being a Deep One is a good thing...
129* The {{Winged Humanoid}}s Je'arre in ''Literature/WindAndSparks'' cycle. Many centuries ago they lived far south in a desert. Then some of them angered their god and were turned into [[OurSoulsAreDifferent soulless]] bloodthirsty SnakePeople, who drove the unmutated Je'arre away. They are excellent artisans and every ruler would like to have them as his subjects for a share of income. They are also obnoxious greedy merchants, which provoked many clashes. When the emperor offered them a disputed chunk of land for good and all, they gladly agreed, called it "The Promised Region" and quickly cleansed it of the Empire's enemies. By the end of the first novel, there's a strong chance of pogroms, because some Je'arre clans supported the invaders.[[note]]They were afraid the Empire would try to take away their land and allied with Empire's enemies, despite the other invaders' allies being SnakePeople and the former owners of the Promised Region. This has caused infightings among Je'arre, in spite of previously unbroken law to never fight feathered brothers.[[/note]] Oh, and their noses are huge.
130* Creator/DavidEddings:
131%%** ''Literature/TheElenium'' has Styrics, a race of humans who have been displaced from their original homes by expy-Catholics, and are generally rustic and uneducated despite being simultaneously arrogantly smug and superior. They live in isolated villages or ghettos, are oppressed by the Catholic majority, and don't eat pork. In the sequel series ''Literature/TheTamuli'', it's revealed that they have formed their own country that contains only Styrics (although admittedly most countries in the setting are [[PlanetOfHats countries of hats]]).%%FCC%%
132** ''Literature/TheBelgariad'' has a number of stereotypical fantasy cultures that basically boil down to the good European cultures fighting against evil Asian cultures whose battle tactics typically consist of [[WeHaveReserves flooding the defenses with expendable conscripts]].
133%%* The ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'' series features multiple characters from "[[OopNorth the Northlands]]" (north of Mossflower, that is). Some of them speak with Scottish accents. The only real description we get is that it's pretty war-torn. One weasel in the first book spoke with an Irish accent, but that appears to be the only analogue there. Various other creatures tend to speak with the FunetikAksent and speech patterns of other regions in England.%%FCC%%
134* The goblins in the ''Literature/HarryPotter'' books are squat creatures who run the banks, leading to comparisons with Jews. ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows'' reveals that they believe everything made by goblins really belongs to them, even if humans may think they acquired it. They've historically been subject to discrimination and not allowed to carry wands, leading to several rebellions.
135* ''Voices'', the second book in ''Literature/AnnalsOfTheWesternShore'', has the Alds. Their culture is highly misogynistic and their occupation of Ansul is purely motivated by religious fundamentalism. Their homeland is in the desert. Also, their prayers involve touching their foreheads to the ground. Apart from the detail of being light-skinned, it's hard to think Le Guin wasn't drawing on stereotypes of Muslims (even if they do gain more depth than "sexist zealots" later).
136%%* Jewish author Creator/HarryTurtledove's short story ''Last Favor'' is about a planet where the native species is divided into two races, the dominant blueskins, and the oppressed greenskins. The greenskins serve as merchants and bankers but are forced to live in a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghetto separate neighborhood outside the city walls]]. If they are not back in their own neighborhood by sundown, the blueskins are allowed to brutally murder them.[[note]]Similar to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundown_town sundown towns]][[/note]] The greenskins even have Jewish names like Nadab and Itamar, and the city they live in is called [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashkenazi_Jews Shkenaz]].%%That's just FCC and some Fantastic Racism%%
137* ''Literature/TheWitches''--by Creator/RoaldDahl, who was growing more and more vocally antisemitic around the time he wrote this book--has the [[AntagonistTitle eponymous]] (incidentally [[OneGenderRace all-female]]) MageSpecies, whose conspiracy to wipe out children parallels antisemitic [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_libel blood libel]]. Their [[GlamourFailure identifying features]] include wigs ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheitel which some Orthodox Jewish women wear]]--though those real women do it [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tzniut to cover up their natural hair]], while Dahl's witches do it to conceal their ''[[BaldOfEvil lack]]'' of natural hair[[note]]There may also be some connection here with the myth of Jews having hidden HornsOfVillainy.[[/note]]), toeless feet (possibly related to [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereotypes_of_Jews#Medieval_Europe depictions of Jews with cloven hooves]]), and oversized nostrils (in keeping with the SinisterSchnoz as a staple of antisemitic caricatures). They also have unlimited financial power (courtesy of the [[MonsterLord Grand High Witch's]] money-printing machine). In the end, they [[spoiler:get turned into mice by their own potion and massacred by hotel staff]], an image uncomfortably similar to how antisemites (most infamously ThoseWackyNazis) love depicting Jews as vermin to be exterminated.
138* ZigZagged in "AsstroXologists" 'verse by Olga Gromyko - Avshur have all the fashion sense, mannerisms and speech habits of the most stereotypical Jews (sans the long noses - they resemble those of bears)... because they're [[InvokedTrope deliberately mimicking said stereotypes]] when conducting business in human dominated habitats - their xenopsychologists decided that would elicit the most desirable reaction from humans. When they want to talk seriously all stereotypical mannerisms evaporate instantly. That being said they're extremely greedy, ruthless and secretive when it comes to internal matters of their race, so they have a point. Although they had never lost their homeland (that happened to serpentoids) or been persecuted (they're one of the most prosperous and respected races, in fact) and have a generally benign code of honour.

141[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
142* ''Franchise/StarTrek'' has a few of these:
143** The lumpen-nosed, big-eared, insatiably greedy Ferengi are seen by some as antisemitic characters, and their earliest appearances were also criticized as being ''Japanese'' stereotypes. According to WordOfGod, the Ferengi were meant to be strawmen for American capitalists and were compared to "Yankee Traders" in their first appearance. The name 'Ferengi' is derived from the word "firangi", which is the Hindi/Urdu term meaning "Westerners". In ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'', which featured the most in-depth depiction of the Ferengi, four actors who played the most significant recurring Ferengi characters, Creator/ArminShimerman, Max Grodenchik, Aron Eisenberg, and Creator/WallaceShawn, were '''all''' Jewish, reinforcing the stereotype. The comparisons to Jewish stereotypes became more common after they were ditched as villains and became comic relief. For what it's worth, the staff writer who most enjoyed writing Ferengi episodes was Ira Steven Behr, a Jew.
144** The Klingons started out as obviously based upon UsefulNotes/ColdWar stereotypes of Russians or Chinese. The original description for them in the script for their debut episode in ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'', "[[Recap/StarTrekS1E26ErrandOfMercy Errand of Mercy]]", describes them as "''Oriental'', hard-faced". Their original appearance includes pencil mustaches and a dark complexion. It came from John Colicos, who played the lead Klingon, Kor in the episode. Colicos envisioned his character as "Space Age Genghis Khan" and suggested this look to makeup artist Fred Phillips. It became the standard appearance for Klingons throughout the show. Starting with the ''TOS'' films, they began taking on a mishmash of HornyVikings and {{samurai}} references and became a {{Proud Warrior Race|Guy}}.
145** The Orions have a tendency to be negative stereotypes of (Southern) Italians in space, being notorious for organised crime and, to a lesser extent, sexy women. Their most three-dimensional depiction, in ''WesternAnimation/StarTrekLowerDecks'' reveals that Orions who aren't criminals are deeply wounded by the stereotype, although some play up to it to seem "cool".
146** Harry Mudd, in his ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries'' appearances, seems to be a derogatory stereotype of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Travellers#Social_conflict Irish Travellers]], given his Irish accent, flamboyant dress sense, pierced ear, and dishonesty.
147** Kivas Fajo, from the ''Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration'' episode "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS3E22TheMostToys The Most Toys]]", is a greedy, amoral trader who specializes in collecting -- by whatever means necessary -- especially rare and precious items. Fajo was played by the very Jewish Creator/SaulRubinek. This was the result of a last-minute recast after the original Jewish actor, David Rappaport, [[RealLifeWritesThePlot committed suicide]].
148** The infamous ''TNG'' episode "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS2E18UpTheLongLadder Up the Long Ladder]]" has the Bringloidi, a group of settlers replete with {{Oireland}} stereotypes. They're all jovial [[SpaceAmish rural bumpkins]], all the men are drunken layabouts, and all the women are spitfire harridans, with accents so thick you could cut them with a knife. (Note that these are actually ''human'' colonists, so they're arguably less Space Oirish than Oirish [[JustForFun/RecycledInSpace In Space]].) Creator/ColmMeaney was ''not'' happy about being in the episode, but couldn't do anything about it. Later, when cast in ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'', he had more influence (being part of the main cast) and point-blank refused to be in an episode with a stereotypical leprechaun, forcing the writers of "[[Recap/StarTrekDeepSpaceNineS01E16IfWishesWereHorses If Wishes Were Horses]]" to revise the character into Literature/{{Rumpelstiltskin}}.
149** In the even more infamous ''TNG'' episode "[[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS1E3CodeOfHonor Code of Honor]]", the episode's HumanAliens were originally written as a run-of-the-mill {{Proud Warrior Race|Guy}}. However, the combination of an inexplicable choice to cast all black actors to play the aliens (nothing in the story required this) and a horribly racist director (he eventually got fired for treating said actors like shit, but only once the production was well under way) led to the society being portrayed as an absurd 1940s-era DarkestAfrica tribal stereotype. Needless to say, everyone involved in ''TNG'' regards this episode as the most fetid of {{Old Shame}}s.
150%%** Vulcans are logical, inscrutable, slant-eyed mathematicians and scientists, referencing Asian stereotypes.%%Vulcans are not coded as Asian. They're more Jewish and also slightly Greek%%
151%%** Romulans are inscrutable, slant-eyed warlike imperialists, [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment referencing Asian stereotypes]].%%No, they're pretty overtly Romans. Clue is in the name%%
152%%** Cardassians are amoral, devoted to a big brother-esque government, and the Federation appeases them because they'd prefer a Cold War to a Hot War, referencing Russian stereotypes. Their expansionistic, elitist, and racist tendencies also call to mind UsefulNotes/NaziGermany.%%
153%%** Bajorans are oppressed, deeply religious terrorists, referencing Jewish and Muslim stereotypes. Their religion has an organized structure similar to the hierarchy of the Catholic Church. (Louise Fletcher described her character Kai Winn as one of the medieval Popes, ruthless and political.)%%
154%%** The Borg are white-skinned and constantly force all other races into adopting their culture and technology, referencing stereotypes of white people, along with communists as they are extremely collectivist. The behavior of drones who are freed from the Collective is also similar to accounts from people who have escaped white supremacist groups or cults in general.%%That's antiracist then, not racist%%
155%%** Despite their name being derived from an actual historical name for [[LaResistance the French Resistance]], the Maquis are a pastiche of dispossessed Native Americans and Palestinians (the Native American part is more literal as some Maquis are Native Americans who established colonies to preserve their culture).%%FCC%%
156%%** The El-Aurians, Guinan's people, have traits traditionally associated with Roma peoples. Due to their homeworld long ago being destroyed by the Borg, they're nomadic. The few survivors feel a kinship even if they dislike or are morally opposed to each other. In addition, their [[PlanetOfHats culture]] places a great deal of importance on storytelling and games of chance and skill.%%FCC%%
157* ''ComicStrip/FlashGordon'' villain Ming the Merciless, an obvious YellowPeril type villain. The [[Film/FlashGordon1980 film version in the '80s]] gave him a RaceLift with Swedish actor Creator/MaxVonSydow, and since then, he's been white. In ''WesternAnimation/DefendersOfTheEarth'' and [[WesternAnimation/FlashGordon1996 the '96 cartoon]], he was green.
158* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
159** The Sensorites have a slight Orientalism vibe -- [[InscrutableOriental inscrutable]], [[DittoAliens all look the same]], venerate elders, live in a 'forbidden city'.
160** "The Creature From the Pit" has a group of bandits in a HumanAlien society who were modeled on a pastiche of Fagin from ''Literature/OliverTwist'', with no concern for how this was going to end up looking.
161** LoveableRogue Sabalom Glitz from "The Mysterious Planet", "The Ultimate Foe", and "Dragonfire", who, aside from having the most Jewish-sounding pulp SF name imaginable, will do pretty much anything for money.
162** "The Unquiet Dead" featured an alien species called the Gelth who claimed to want to live on Earth as peaceful refugees but were actually plotting the genocide of humanity, which led some fans to accuse the episode of irresponsibly seeming to endorse actual contemporary fears about immigration.
163** In the episode "The Long Game", we learn that a consortium of bankers has been covertly manipulating the mass media to control Earth. This is more or less the plot of ''Literature/TheProtocolsOfTheEldersOfZion''. What makes this extra-strange (or something) is that we eventually learn that the [[ANaziByAnyOtherName Daleks]] were behind it the whole time. However, villains from pretty much every other profession in Britain have ''also'' been shown manipulating Earth folks' perceptions and/or trying to covertly take over. Bankers were just one among many, for a very, very, ''very'' LongRunner.
164** "The Zygon Invasion[="/"=]The Zygon Inversion" unsubtly parallels Zygons living in secret on Earth with Muslims in Europe, with a terrorist minority promoting hostility to all of them. Although the episodes were intended to be overall anti-racist, some fans didn't like the implications (in particular the potential suggestion that immigrants were only welcome in society if they entirely gave up their previous culture and never showed any sign of being "different").
165%%** Thals in "The Daleks" are tall, blond, blue-eyed descended from a legendary warrior culture now turned into a romanticized farmer people, ironically persecuted by [[ANaziByAnyOtherName space-Nazis]].%%FCC%%
166%%** The Primitives in "Colony in Space" and the Swampies in "The Power of Kroll" are both Native Americans, though the Primitives are MagicalNativeAmerican-ish and the Swampies are an unromanticised, angry race stuck being bullied by white people on the reservation.%%FCC%%
167%%* The Pak'ma'ra in ''Series/BabylonFive'' read subtly like a description of Jews: a religious, fairly insular, and widely traveled species that is ignored or hated nearly everywhere they go (because they're carrion eaters). This is {{exploited}} in season five when they're brought into the Rangers: they make poor fighters unlike the humans and Minbari that make up most of the organization, but because they're widely traveled and ignored they make excellent spies and messengers.%%FCC%%
168%%* ''Series/SpacePrecinct'', whose writers never met a tired old cop-show trope they couldn't recycle with tacked-on Soft SF elements, naturally included a race of ridiculously literal SpaceJews ''right down to the Yiddish accent''. The best you could say about the result was that they were at least used for an anti-racism {{aesop}} in the one episode they ever showed up in. And then there's [[DaChief Captain Podly]], whose "OfficerOHara" accent is only marginally less thick than the trope namer's despite the fact he's a RubberForeheadAlien, and that actual Irish-American and New York native Lt. Brogan has no trace of this accent at all.%%Aliens who are simply coded as Jewish or Irish is not enough to qualify for this trope. They need to embody specifically racist stereotypes%%
169[[/folder]]
170
171%%[[folder:Podcasts]]%%
172%%* ''Podcast/TheThrillingAdventureHour'' lampshades this trope with the martians. They celebrate a holiday called Han-oo'Kah and their rite of passage for younglings is named B'at-mit zvah for females and B'ar-mit zvah for men. Interestingly, they also invert this trope. Commander Gene Peeples has none of the stereotypes associated with Jews, but when Pemily Stallwark wants to give him a gift for space-Christmas, he replies that he is space-Jewish. She then offers it as a gift for space-Hanukkah instead and he accepts.%%FCC%%
173%%[[/folder]]%%
174
175[[folder:Radio]]
176* The titular characters of ''Radio/TheSpaceGypsyAdventures'' are practically anthropomorphic fox versions of Roma in space. And the name of the show contains a racial slur for Roma people, so there you go.
177[[/folder]]
178
179[[folder:Tabletop Games]]
180* The ''WebAnimation/StarWreck'' RolePlayingGame lampshades this:
181-->''The Ferrets are a disgusting culture who look like chimpanzees made up as Prince Charles. They dress in scarves, gold jewelry, vests, and caftans, and often act as travelling thieves, peddlers, or money-lenders. The PR department of the Ferret Corporation is quick to point out that they have no connection with any possible stereotypes of any ancient Earth cultures. None whatsoever. The very idea is insulting. Then they will try to cheat you out of your money, the little bastards.''
182* ''TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}}'':
183** Aside from being the "Predators of the 40k Universe", the Kroot are heavily based on stereotypical Native Americans in looks, to the point that one of their legendary chief's name translates to "Sitting Krootox". Being of a lower-than-average technology level (albeit still possessing technology from firearms to FTL travel) doesn't make things better. They also play on the belief once prevalent in many tribal cultures (most famously the Iroquois) that eating a defeated enemy allows you to absorb their strength. Their BizarreAlienBiology lets the Kroot absorb DNA from their meals into their own genetic code.
184-->"Together, we will eat them all!"
185%%** The [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Death Korps of Krieg]] is a UsefulNotes/WorldWarI-themed Imperial Guard army. They are ruthless, dehumanised soldiers specialized in trench warfare who are absolutely disciplined, will always follow orders to the letter, and have little regard for human life, similar to how the Germans were depicted in British propaganda.%%
186* ''{{TabletopGame/Warhammer}}'': The [[BeastMan Beastmen]], according to WordOfGod, are based on how Roman writers who didn't show them as {{Noble Savage}}s portrayed Germanic tribes: a horde of stupid, smelly, civilization-hating thugs who wanted to tear down Rome for no real reason.
187* ''TabletopGame/WerewolfTheApocalypse'' features a variety of werewolf tribes that players had to select from, relating to the ethnic stereotypes of their homelands. Just to drive the point totally home, they have powers relating to those stereotypes. So the Irish Fianna have powers relating to drinking, the Shadow Lords (both Japanese and Eastern European, somehow) are ruthless, deceptive, and power-hungry, and the Bone Gnawers (ghetto-dwellers, including African-Americans) are poor and despised. The World of Darkness explains this by asserting that mythological creatures are the origin of various racial and ethnic stereotypes.
188%%* ''TabletopGame/TwilightImperium'': One of the races players can choose from is the "Emirates of Hacan." Reading the fluff on the back of their race card reveals that they are the trade masters of the galaxy, having secured vast riches from sales of opiates and other narcotics that grow exclusively on their homeworlds (they have 3). This description, combined with their in game abilities to stockpile ridiculous amounts of Trade Goods has led them to being colloquially named by players "Lion Space Jews."%%Not every ProudMerchantRace counts as this trope. What specifically links the Hacan to Jewish people?%%
189[[/folder]]
190
191[[folder:Theater]]
192* Music/RichardWagner is often accused of this, with entire books dedicated to finding anti-Semitic stereotypes in his operas. Most Wagner scholars today would agree that Klingsor from ''Theatre/{{Parsifal}}'' was intended as this trope. Other Wagner villains considered to be Space Jews are the Nibelungs (dwarfs who mine gold underground and are led by the BigBad), specifically Alberich and Mime, from ''Theatre/DerRingDesNibelungen'', though the evidence there is considerably weaker and it's less widely accepted. [[ThoseWackyNazis The Nazis]] considered Alberich's son, Hagen, who impales Siegfried in the back to retrieve the ring in ''Götterdämmerung'', as a personification of Jews, while they considered Siegfried as a pure Aryan-blooded hero. They also loved his music, and Wagner was admittedly antisemitic.
193[[/folder]]
194
195[[folder:Urban Legends]]
196* As noted above, many people noted the LizardFolk in the ReptilianConspiracy have similarities to antisemitic stereotypes, given that both are about outsiders undermining and infiltrating governments. They are also said to drink blood, similar to blood libel stereotypes. David Icke, one of the most prominent promoters of the theory, has even claimed that ''Literature/TheProtocolsOfTheEldersOfZion'', a well-known antisemitic hoax, was actually about LizardFolk.
197* Some people have accused TheGreys of [[https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Gray_aliens#Yellow_peril.3F being East Asian stereotypes]], given their [[InscrutableOriental inscrutability]], [[RacialFaceBlindness extreme similarity in appearance]], [[AsianAndNerdy being scientifically minded and technologically advanced]], small noses and almond-shaped eyes.
198[[/folder]]
199
200[[folder:Video Games]]
201* In ''Franchise/MassEffect'':
202** The Volus are a race of short, weak, and nasally speaking people who live as a "client race" amongst the taller, more militaristic Turians. The Turians allow the Volus to run their finances and commerce in exchange for protection. This is all pretty analogous to the way Jews were viewed in early Christian and Muslim cultures. Several Volus are quite shady, feeding into the stereotype of greedy Jewish bankers and crooked merchants.
203** The Quarian are Space Muslims: they roam in caravans, they wear headscarves, and their main representative in the game has a Muslim name, Tali.
204* ''VideoGame/MasterOfOrion II'' features the Gnolams, a race of spacefaring traders whose insidiousness, obsession with money, visage, and gesturing all hit way too close to home... They were also short of stature with big noses and wore little skullcaps. Moreover, of the various species' "hero lieutenants" the player can hire, the Gnolam example was named "ZOG", which may or may not have been intended as a reference to a delusional Anti-Semitic conspiracy theory. The name was changed in a patch. Even their racial music theme is based on Chassidic dance.
205* ''VideoGame/EscapeVelocity Nova'' has a side quest about mercenaries from New Ireland, a planet full of Irish colonists, that includes every {{Oireland}} stereotype imaginable, as well as some severe UnfortunateImplications when the mercenaries explain why they're so good at guerrilla warfare. The game's creators seem not to have intended any of this to be offensive, as the player's character goes on at length about how much he admires Irish culture.
206%%* ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'' has a lot of {{Fantasy Counterpart Culture}}s, and applies this trope to the more acceptable targets now and then. Namely, goblins are New Yorkers with New York accents. Their dialogue includes cliches from a variety of common New York ethnicities. They're also short, big-eared, obnoxious voiced, shrewd businessmen. In the ''Cataclysm'' expansion, the newly-introduced Bilgewater Cartel resembles the Mafia.%%That's just FCC%%
207%%** The draenei also count to a certain extent, if you're familiar with history books (and not just UsefulNotes/WorldWarII). Like the goblins, though, they overlap with a wide range of real-world cultures.%%What cultures?%%
208* The fourth ''VideoGame/{{God of War|PS4}}'' game pays homage to the LighterAndSofter interpretation by [[Creator/JRRTolkien Tolkien]] above in its own take on Myth/NorseMythology by making two bickering Dwarven brothers skilled craftsmen, who travel extensively and prefer to avoid direct combat. The game even takes it a step further with their characterizations; Brok is [[AlterKocker surly]] and [[JewsLoveToArgue disagreeable]] while Sindri is a [[JewishComplaining nebbishy hypochondriac]].
209%%* In ''{{VideoGame/Warframe}}'', the Corpus are a plutocratic, profit-worshiping cult bent on gathering ancient Orokin technology and gathering cash.%%This demonstrates that the Corpus are greedy but does not link them to any specific real-world group%%
210* In ''VideoGame/ArcanumOfSteamworksAndMagickObscura'', gnomes have large noses, tend to be wealthy bankers and statesmen, and [[spoiler:were involved in a giant morally depraved conspiracy for personal gain]]. This might even be ''intentional'': it's set in the equivalent of the 19th century, and reads rather like a novel from that time when pinning such things on the Jews would have been [[ValuesDissonance perfectly acceptable]].
211* The Gerudo from ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' series are an overtly Bedouin-inspired culture combined with AmazonBrigade and a dash of Romani influences. They are nearly all female yet patriarchal, dark-skinned thieves who live in the desert, are considered lower than the Hylians who are "chosen by the gods", and they use a moon as their symbol ([[{{Bowdlerise}} later changed into a stylised cobra head]]). Later games in the series have tried to rectify this with a more positive portrayal of the Gerudo, being treated equally by others and, even when [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild they don't let males into their hometown]], it's not due to any misandristic reasons and they still treat men they find while travelling with great respect.
212%%* The Cetra from ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII''. Not only are they a nearly-extinct tribe of wandering chosen ones searching for a 'Promised Land', the main villain's name is lifted directly from a Hebrew concept, the 'Sephirot', which deals with how God manifests in the material world.%%How is this not just a Fantasy Counterpart Culture?%%
213* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyCrystalChronicles'': The Selkies, despite their Celtic name, are clearly a FantasyCounterpartCulture to the UsefulNotes/{{Romani}}. They're also portrayed [[FantasticRacism by the other races]] as completely untrustworthy thieves, and when you visit a Selkie town at one point the locals will quietly pickpocket you if you're not a fellow Selkie. If you play as the one you can get a letter from your mother ''urging you to steal everything that's not nailed down''.
214* ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' features the Villagers, large-nosed merchants protected by {{Golem}}s.
215%%* The first two ''VideoGame/{{Oddworld}}'' games are full of this with the Mudokons, an ancient chosen race with mystic spiritual powers who, following an [[AllThereInTheManual unseen prior conflict]] with the villainous Glukkons, were enslaved into NightmarishFactory jobs. Of course, if this wasn't obvious enough, the game follows HeroProtagonist Abe rescuing his enslaved people from a tyrant [[Literature/BookOfExodus (cough)]] as well as gratuitous use of "shmuck" to really hammer it home.%%That sounds more like a regular Fantasy Counterpart Culture%%
216* ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'': Jynx was accused of being a caricature of a black woman with its pitch-black skin, huge lips, and name-evoking voodoo. The truth is a bit more complicated. It's mostly based on the [[{{Youkai}} Yamanba]] from Japanese folklore, but its appearance is partially inspired by Swarthy Pete, a Moorish servant of Saint Nicholas who is often depicted in European Christmas stuff as a {{blackface}} caricature (claims that is was based on the overly tanned "Ganguro" fashion don't hold water, as it was virtually unknown when the game was in production). In any event, it was eventually made purple to deflect criticism.
217* ''Franchise/TouhouProject'''s {{kappa}} are mostly intended as a {{Homage}} to the satirical novel ''[[Creator/RyunosukeAkutagawa Kappa]]'', but the end result is weirdly similar to Jewish stereotypes. They're portrayed as dishonest businessmen who live as an enclave among the more powerful {{Tengu}}, and have [[GadgeteerGenius acute engineering skills]] but are quick to complain and bad at working in groups. Due to [[CuteMonsterGirl their traditionally monstrous traits being toned down]], they're also short and trade in their usual beaks and head-bowls for distinctive caps.
218* The Khajiit in ''most'' games from ''Franchise/TheElderScrolls'' borrow heavily from the Romani (or rather, the stereotypes attached to them). They travel in caravans, are often perceived as being heavily involved in thievery (In ''VideoGame/{{Skyrim}}'' this is played straight, the head of all Khajiit caravans is a fence for the Thieves' guild), are often discriminated against by whatever native species whose land they are in, and tend to be poor. Their accents often are based on what is generally a stereotypical Romani accent. In the words of Creator/LindsayEllis, "They are Romani - they are cat Romani". ''VideoGame/TheElderScrollsOnline'' somewhat subverts this by having an expansion set in the Khajiit homeland of Elsweir, allowing their culture to be depicted more complex and under a different light.
219* The Gek in ''VideoGame/NoMansSky'' are short, greedy merchants with sometimes literal beaks.
220* ''VideoGame/HogwartsLegacy:'' As with the source material, the Goblins are big-nosed bankers, about as obvious a Jewish stereotype as you can get. They've historically been subject to discrimination and not allowed to carry wands, leading to several rebellions; the game's plot centers around one of those uprisings. There is also [[https://www.thegamer.com/hogwarts-legacy-draws-further-complaints-of-antisemitism/ an in-game item resembling a shofar]], whose FlavorText states that goblins used it "during the 1612 goblin rebellion to rally troops and annoy wizards"--1612 being the same year there was a pogrom against Jews in Frankfurt, Germany in real life.

223%%[[folder:Web Animation]]%%
224%%* The web video, [[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/358175 found on Newgrounds]], is called ''We Are Native American Cats'', which has domestic cats represent Native Americans.%%That's just FCC%%
225%%* Jeice in WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged speaks in a very stereotypical Australian accent. He claims to be from [[SpaceX Space Australia]], specifically space Brisbane.%%
226%%[[/folder]]%%

228[[folder:Webcomics]]
229%%* {{Justified|Trope}} in ''Webcomic/QuentynQuinnSpaceRanger'' with the [[http://www.rhjunior.com/quentyn-quinn-space-ranger-0071/ W'Naybeans]], their culture is mimicking other cultures and they have trouble distinguishing stereotypes from flattering imitation.%%What stereotypes does it engage with?%%
230* CorruptCorporateExecutive Madorako from ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod'' belongs to some unspecified humanoid species -- he has purple hair and horns -- but he bears resemblance to a GreedyJew, particularly with that nose.
231[[/folder]]
232
233[[folder:Web Original]]
234* Parodied by Website/TheOnion [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4PC8Luqiws here]], where a self-help guru encourages people to fight stress by envisioning it as a greedy, hook-nosed race of fantasy creatures.
235[[/folder]]
236
237[[folder:Western Animation]]
238%%* The former Cartoon Network show ''WesternAnimation/ChopSockyChooks'' runs on this trope, if you couldn't guess from the title[[labelnote:Why?]] Chop Socky comes from the anachronistic term for martial arts movies filmed dubbed in Asia, often Hong Kong, in the mid-to-late 20th century[[/labelnote]]. The reason that it qualifies is that all the characters' existences are exclusively in an unreal city-sized mall and don't reference any of the racial depictions as such.%%Simply engaging with stereotypes is not what this trope is about%%
239%%** K.O. Joe is a depiction of a 70s jive-turkey-speaking African-American.%%
240%%** Three guesses who Chuckie Chan is an {{expy}} of.%%
241* The ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode "Cancelled" features a literal version in a race of aliens known as the Joozians, a PlanetOfHats people characterized by their gigantic noses, wealth, and control of the intergalactic entertainment business. Kyle, the Jewish kid, also happens to be the only human in the group who likes their cuisine.
242* ''WesternAnimation/{{Squidbillies}}'', rather obviously, is about squids who display hillbilly stereotypes.
243* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' has a few intentional examples, played for comedy:
244** The Native Martians are obvious analogues to Native Americans. They sold their home planet for a bead ([[SubvertedTrope which, it turns out, is a giant diamond]]) and are forced into small reservations; their [[BraidsBeadsAndBuckskins clothing]] and [[TontoTalk speech]] are based on old Western film clichés.
245** Zoidberg and his Decapodian species are based on Ashkenazi American Jews. They speak with a thick Yiddish accent, use many [[YiddishAsASecondLanguage Yiddishisms]] in their speech, and display a number of Jewish stereotypes, such as complaining and being fussy over money. Zoidberg's name is a play on common Jewish names ending in -berg. His profession, a doctor, is also stereotypically Jewish. Likewise, his uncle, Harold Zoid, is an old BorschtBelt-style performer who removed the -berg, just as many Jewish actors hide their heritage when taking stage names. Zoidberg himself is a play on the classic Yiddish concept of the mooching [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schnorrer "schnorrer"]].
246** The Cygnoids are Space Italian-Americans and display some stereotypical Italian-American behavior. Things get a little ironic when a family of Cygnoids open a pizza shop and show a comical level of ignorance about human cuisine and physiology.
247** The Sun people in the video game are meant to be a parallel to [[{{Mayincatec}} Mesoamerican civilizations]], right down to the Sun worship, [[HumanSacrifice alien sacrifice]], and [[GodGuise villainous deities]].
248** The mer-people in "The [[PunBasedTitle Deep]] South" are based on stereotypes of people in the southeastern U.S., mainly shown in their exaggerated accents and standard redneck-style behavior. This is justified in that they are the descendants of human residents of "The Lost City of [[{{Atlantis}} Atlanta]]", which was removed from the American mainland and transported offshore to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean until it sank to the bottom of the ocean. When called out on how there's no way that humans could have evolved into mer-people in less than a thousand years, the rapid evolution is blamed on the Coca-Cola bottling plant.
249* ''WesternAnimation/TrippingTheRift'' pretty much runs on RefugeInAudacity and this is pretty much the ''least'' offensive thing about the show, but there's at least two species of purple-skinned alien (or possibly sub-species of the same species) that have a ''lot'' in common with humans of African ancestry. One is for all intents and purposes basically a typical basketball player (only with chainsaws) and the other looks like 1940s cartoons of black people. Especially "Natives" as opposed to black characters who were born in America.
250* ''WesternAnimation/FantasticMax'' has an episode where the characters run into a group of thieving, flamboyant, swarthy (but in the end, helpful) alien con artists that literally refer to themselves as "Space Gypsies".
251%%* In some GoldenAge cartoons, crows are portrayed as being African American, punning on the term "[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Crow_laws Jim Crow]]." Interestingly, ravens aren't portrayed this way despite having all-black plumage rather like crows.%%No specific examples%%
252%%* There are French Canadian crows in ''WesternAnimation/BackAtTheBarnyard''.%%So?%%
253* The two titular gophers of the "Go Go Gophers" segments of ''WesternAnimation/{{Underdog}}'' are portrayed as stereotyped Native Americans.
254%%* ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'':%%
255%%** In two episodes, the Warner Sibs are portrayed as Native Americans.%%
256%%** The Goodfeathers and the Godpigeon are pigeon {{Expies}} of the UsefulNotes/NewYorkCity, Italian American mobsters in ''Film/{{Goodfellas}}'' and ''Film/TheGodfather'' and so are portrayed as Italian Americans.%%
257* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'':
258** For the ''Franchise/StarWars'' special ''Blue Harvest'', the creators wanted to make all the Jawas into Jewas, hence the only speaking Jawa being Mort Goldman, but were prevented from doing so.
259** The ethnically Japanese version of Brian Griffin the dog in the "Road to the Multiverse" episode of ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', who has almond-shaped eyes rather than round eyes like the normal version of him.
260%%* Lots of ''WesternAnimation/VeggieTales'' characters, though they're not offensive. For example, the French Peas, Archibald the British asparagus, the hillbilly grapes (though their Pa has a New York Jewish accent), and the Hispanic or Italian Mr. Lunt.%%If they're not offensive they're not this trope%%
261%%* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' has several examples, including WesternAnimation/SpeedyGonzales and Slowpoke Rodriguez the Mexican mice and WesternAnimation/PepeLePew the French skunk.%%Speedy and his pals actually are explicitly Mexican, so this doesn't apply. It would only be an example if the nationality of the mice was never stated but they all displayed negative traits stereotypically associated with Mexicans anyway.%%
262%%* ''WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures'' has Fifi La Fume, who is portrayed as a French skunk as she is a SpiritualSuccessor to Pepe Le Pew.
263%%** There was going to be a Latino SpiritualSuccessor to Speedy Gonzales named Lightning Rodriguez, but he is virtually nowhere to be seen.%%Simply having a cartoon character be Latin does not qualify for this trope%%
264* Yo-Yo Bear from the ''WesternAnimation/YogiBear'' episode, "Yogi's Pest Guest" is Okinawan and embodies Japanese stereotypes, like being a martial artist.
265%%* Judo Jack from ''WesternAnimation/PixieDixieAndMrJinks'' is a Japanese martial artist mouse.%%So?%%
266%%* In another literal example, the English dub of ''Jamie's Got Tentacles'' gives Jamie's parents Jewish accents.%%
267%%* A mouse that shows up at the end of the ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDooWhereAreYou'' episode "Mystery Mask Mix-Up" to eat Scooby's Scooby Snacks squeaks with a Chinese accent and has almond-shaped eyes.%%
268* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' had a HalloweenEpisode where Bart gets a golem. Naturally, he comes off as stereotypically Jewish (including lots of nagging guilt about Bart [[ForcedIntoEvil using him to kill people]]). They eventually make him a wife out of Play-Doh; she's played by Creator/FranDrescher.
269* Much like the Creator/{{Disney}} movies in the animated film section above, Disney's TV cartoons also use their fair share of ethnic stereotypes:
270** YellowPeril Siamese cats make yet ''another'' appearance in ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers''. Some of the other YellowPeril cats don't have the Siamese point pattern.
271** Earlier on, Disney actually averted the "[[NationalAnimalStereotypes Siamese cat = Asian]]" stereotype for once with Milton the cat, who appeared in the animated short "Plutopia" alongside WesternAnimation/PlutoThePup. Another appearance featuring Milton, in "Puss Cafe," featured him with another non-stereotyped Siamese cat named Richard. And this was during TheFifties, no less.
272** The "Jiminy Cricket's Encyclopedia" segment of ''WesternAnimation/TheMickeyMouseClub'' features yet another non-stereotyped Siamese cat, but this one has a more realistic pattern and more the same build as the stereotyped Si and Am.
273** The pandas from the ''WesternAnimation/TaleSpin'' episode "Last Horizons" are Chinese stereotypes, so much so that the episode was taken out of circulation and only showed up again when the show was released on DVD.
274%%** In the WesternAnimation/{{Goofy}} cartoon "Californy er Bust," some of the {{Inexplicably Identical Individual|s}} Goofs resemble Native Americans. Similarly, the cartoon "African Diary" features African Goofs (albeit wearing traditional African garb, and not {{blackface}} caricatures).%%
275%%** Scrooge [=McDuck=] from ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987'', as well as ''WesternAnimation/MickeysChristmasCarol'' and the ComicBook/DisneyDucksComicUniverse, is a ThriftyScot whose first name is the same as the last name of the main character of ''Literature/AChristmasCarol''.%%
276%%** Ludwig Von Drake, another Disney duck, is a UsefulNotes/SigmundFreud-esque HerrDoktor Austrian stereotype. When the character was made in the early 1960s they made him Austrian instead of German because of what happened during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII and the resulting perceptions of Germany and Germans at the time.%%
277%%** In the WartimeCartoon, ''WesternAnimation/TheSpiritOf43'', there is a [[ThriftyScot thrifty Scottish]] duck similar to Scrooge who came to be later in the 1940s.%%
278%%** Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera is Latino and has light brown feathers in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017'', [[RaceLift in contrast to his]] presumably white, white-feathered [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987 original counterpart]], but there isn't any stereotyping. It's an ActorAllusion to his voice actor in the reboot, Latino Creator/LinManuelMiranda.%%
279* Discussed in a ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken'' sketch featuring the Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles, in which the media paints them as being racially biased after they [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything use excessive force]] on Shredder and the Foot Clan.
280-->'''Reporter:''' Do the Ninja Turtles hate Asians?\
281'''Leonardo:''' Hate Asians? We ''are'' Asian!\
282'''Michelangelo:''' Asian? We're Italian, dude.\
283'''Splinter:''' You're fucking ''turtles!''
284** The stereotype of JewishComplaining is applied to [[Franchise/StarWars Yarael Poof]] rather than bringing Watto into the mix.
285%%* ''WesternAnimation/HashimotoSan'': The main character and his family are racially and culturally sensitive Japanese mice. This show was the first serious attempt to create a largely sympathetic Asian protagonist for the medium.%%Then it doesn't count as this trope%%
286* ''WesternAnimation/TheTwistedTalesOfFelixTheCat'' has Peking Duck, who, of course, is a bunch of YellowPeril stereotypes embodied in the form of a duck.
