Just one set of examples among many. The one laid out in the video is superbly dissected. Doesn’t hurt that it comes from the era when even the propaganda had a veneer of artistic merit.
I think that top list with Luke and Obi Wan is just trending pages on the wiki, not people that fall into that category. Though that's only slightly good news, because the (apparent) list of LGBTQ people in the Star Wars universe after it is huge.
Interesting video - I do wonder how much is Wyatt's interpretation versus what Sergio Leone has said about his own films - some of it felt like a bit of a stretch.
Still worth a watch though.
Now I'm going to have to rewatch Once Upon A Time In The West and The Good, The Bad & The Ugly lol
It is interesting, because Leone originally wanted Eastwood cast for the film -- I do wonder if the role was rewritten for Bronson, or if Eastwood actually passed on it because he saw that it was a racist allegory against Whites?
canonically what now
It’s a whole thing. Watch the video, and if you feel you still care (you probably won’t), just glance at this list and let the hate flow through you:

They are saying all those characters are gay?! Glad I stick with pre-Disney Star Wars. Still have lots of EU books and comics to get through
Is Padme there because she groomed a kid?
And yeah, the propaganda didn't feel so in-yer-face until about the 1970s.
And there was still stuff that was just plain entertainment.

Check the list and you’ll find that Luke and Obi both appear on it. In addition to other illustrious figures of the star wars universe such as:
-Baako Moradi's husband
And
-Unidentified Hebekrr Minor magistrate's granddaughter's wife
Sometimes comments here just make me laugh lol
Ah, you're right. I was only looking under L and O instead of K and S.
Well then -- I guess someone needs to make a new Star Wars wiki. This time without the blackjack or the hookers.
