What I meant was, given the tumultuous histories of cultural exploitation, is there a duty for writers (of any race) to for example, if writing in a world obviously based on Ancient India to not at every corner show how backwards the natives are? Or I and a few other Ashkenazi fantasy lovers I know give dark glowers to fantasy set in a medieval European world, especially if said world is fairly accurate in other respects, that once again lacks a Jewish analogue. Do we have more leeway to play fast and loose with the histories of dominant groups, and should we be more respectful of histories the dominant culture has a history of exploiting?
