do you think mb now one of the reasons ppl don't like to admit their faves have flaws is in response to how ott tumblr is about them

like if you relate to a character and they have flaws and people talk about how shit they are and how they deserve being beaten up or w/e it makes them upset, bc you can't be flawed and still worth dignity or w/e

so ofc it bothers them when their faves have flaws

ik it is, but idc how less bad he was than they are bc even then its still pretty bad

just bc the other standards are so low doesnt mean its not tiring hearing the same weak defenses when pointing out a flaw in his writing, esp since he popularized many fantasy tropes

tell tumblr ppl can be both oppressors and oppressed, and its not a moral alignment

tell them they're both that and watch their heads explode

i hope nobody is actually going to bother the steven universe creators about pearl's dream bc they're already saying its transmisogyny

mb

tumblr (and fandom in general) has a rly black and white view to a characters morality, it's like their values come straight from saturday morning cartoons

anything more than that sends them into overdrive

people talk about how shit they are and how they deserve being beaten up

there was this one blogger who not only did the usual subhuman trash, deserves to die spiel with loki, but who also posted detailed fantasies of thor slowly torturing him to death and this was supposed to be justice

she also thought that loki fans were complicit in his crimes

ik ik villain but still

Lets talk about Autistic and psychotic Bucky and how what was done to him interacts with his neurodivergence on a daily basis
Bucky Barnes forgetting to wash for days on end, he’s never been good at managing his own body or remembering to do things and hydra would schedule ‘washes’ for him so he’s used to someone making him
Bucky getting frustrated as he tries to make a sandwich, trying to remember all the steps but his mind keeps going out of order and he can’t ever remember making them before and it takes him at least 30 minutes every time to get it right
Bucky setting little alarms throughout the day to signal when he should be doing something, it works pretty well but there are still times he hears an alarm and goes to turn it off but forgets what it was for and ends up staring at it thinking before realising four hours have passed and he was away somewhere
Bucky still being partially convinced that his freedom is all an elaborate scheme by hydra to test his loyalty, on some days he has to message Sam, Steve and Nat warning them to stay away since he’s scared he’ll be made to kill them again
Bucky waking up every day to sweep his apartment for cameras and microphones and anything else suspicious, he finds its actually a very helpful morning routine, calming him down and providing a sense of repetition and stability

they're arguing about whether he was oppressed by or oppressing muggles/muggleborns

i think a problem is that people always express themselves in extremes

lotr can't just be sexist or have black and white morality, no it has to be most misogynist morally black and white piece of shit problematic trash in existence

which then leads people who would agree that lotr is sexist and black and white in morality to point out that it's not the actual worst when compared to other works in the genre

"It was the first time a woman was going to die in a Jurassic Park movie. We're an equal opportunities bunch of murderers! So we felt, 'Alright, let's make it the most spectacular death we can possibly imagine - let's involve multiple animals from sea and air...' I love this moment so much. We're playing on the audience's expectation and jadedness. You drop her in the water and immediately everyone goes, 'Oooh, I know what's going to happen.' But you don't. Then the 'birds' start coming in and you get distracted by that and suddenly [it] happens. I knew I'd be accused of killing the Brit! Well, Katie's Irish so she had no problem with it. But we definitely struggled over how much to allow her to earn her death, and ultimately it wasn't because she was British, it was because she was a bridezilla. She has one line about the bachelor party: 'Oh, all his friends are animals.' In the end, the earned death in these movies has become a bit standard and another thing I wanted to subvert. 'How can we surprise people? Let's have someone die who just doesn't deserve to die at all.'"
