Jayce And His Big 5 Kilo Head.....

IWTV is the perfect tv show because you have a piece of media that is simultaneously beloved and detested by the fandom being remade by people who actually care about the characters and want to create a universe that tells the story both authentically and in their own way with a cast that delivers performances that blow some of the biggest names in Hollywood out of the water and it's like, every piece of content you get from the cast and crew -- both on camera and off -- is the best that you could ask for

Oh hey buddy

the fact, that so many Christians and Christianity-influenced fans of Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica see Homura as a villain honestly reveals a lot about what is wrong with the faith, media literacy and the general attitude towards mental illness.

On one hand you have aliens seemingly devoid of any moral system at all, acting purely out of self-interest while pretending to work towards some grand utilitarian goal the results of which will never be experienced by the people affected by the system they created. The Incubators literally rip souls out of children and turn them into a physical object, so that it can store more energy than it took to create it and explode, releasing all of it so that the aliens can then collect the surplus they're after. The psychological effects of that are shown to be equivalent to a perpetual psychotic breakdown shattering the personhood of the victim, dooming them to years of torment that cannot be escaped by any means other than being killed by a magical girl.

On the other hand you have a desperate struggle to protect a sweet lesbian bean girl too devoid of self-worth not to sacrificially throw herself away at the first occasion, time after time after time until it turns out that even a complete rewrite of the universe won't achieve anything permanent unless the Incubators are completely and utterly defeated for good. You have a drastic measure meant to prevent a reactionary takedown of Madoka's universe, taken right after experiencing the aforementioned breakdown.

And then you have imagery of a God and a Devil superimposed on top, contrasting the traits of the characters in a way that should have made it clear the symbolism isn't used in a standard Christian way at all.

But it doesn't matter, because there's so much more discourse on Homura being supposedly in the wrong and evil, accusing her of psychopathy while the actual low empathy villains are doing horrible things for reasons completely unrelated to lack of empathy anyway.

There's a lot of examples of bias, poor media literacy and broken discourse, but this one really bothers us a lot on a personal level and we don't even have a single fictive from the show

I hope that the upcoming movie manages to handle the mismatch between the actual politics of the franchise and its image, but honestly it's gonna be one hell of a job in this climate

The Aenead so far is a lot less of a shit show that the iliad. Tho only read book 1. Some notable things tho:

stan’s the type of guy in a pokemon vers to be like ‘i don’t like pokemon. i only keep them around for free labor’ and then half of his pokemon are friendship evolutions. like okay sure. where’d that espeon come from then stan

he’d also have a mimikyu. because like, c’mon. they’re just like him fr fr. he calls it a creepy rag and says he’s going to throw it out one day but we can all see you letting it sit on your shoulder and eat off your plate stan you’re not slick

For people defending Elon Musk by saying that was a Roman Sallute - the Roman Sallute you're talking about was created by the Mussolini regime. Ya know the other big facist regime of WW2, who allied themselves with the Nazis. It was definitely not created in Ancient Rome, & any art you see of it based in Ancient Rome - almost definetly facist propaganda from the 30s/40s.

And as for the 'He was stimming' defence, STFU - as an autistic person it's so fucking offensive that people are saying the most well know facist/racist gesture is just ☆stimming☆ (also that's just not how stimming works)

Good Luck America with the steaming pile of crap that is your President.
