@Jaiydanimate Why can’t people like you ever see the gap between “I kill people close to me, and I harass people who did nothing to me, and I’m not saying sorry” and “I’m a flawed individual, I’ve done stuff wrong, but I can hold myself accountable and I can learn from those experiences.”
English
I don't like seeing this world where you seemingly aren't allowed any Sympathy at all unless you're nothing but a Good, Spotless person 100% of the time.
Because people like that don't exist. I dread to imagine how you navigate life with such an empty hole in your heart.

I don't care if she has a tragic backstory or if she's trans, I'm not showing sympathy for Jax.

@LinodegliAllori @kolapon_art Agree to disagree, but to someone who actually creates stories for some bit of living and has that kind of experience under her belt, I personally find the pacung was fine for what the story conveyed. If you want it differently, then do it differently yourself with your own works

I don't think the show ever planned to show us the process of abstraction
It does these sudden, jarring cuts to people already having abstracted three separate times and the suddeness is what the show is going for (1/3)

@PossiblyK9 My nigga there’s a HUGE LINE between “I intentionally killed 3 people including my mother and consistently harassed a woman to the point of tears each day and I’m not saying sorry” and “I’m a perfect Mary sue that makes no mistakes and is ALWAYS a good person!”
English
It feels really dehumanizing as a trans person that “good representation” always as to be the most merry sue shit ever, we always have to be depicted as can do no wrong and any depiction of a trans person being a bad person is “harmful rep” I’m so tired

im so pissed off rn

@LexaCola1 @purgatis You can write a trans person with flaws? The problem here is that Jax is an awful person.

*Names every quality of a trans repper*
“Worst representation ever”
Kira 🇧🇩@Magacocks
-A dick to everyone because shes projecting -Denies any help -Kills herself Congrats gooseworx you wrote the worst trans rep ever
English
@LexaCola1 genuinely just typing anything to defend Jax
None of those are even decent qualities nigga
Js bait atp

@Ilovesunburnn @RayOfFantasy 1. You don’t know that
2. That’s not true
3. He’s part of the problem
English
@HiHello370083 @RayOfFantasy 1. Didnt kill her mother
2. Didnt intentionally (or even unintentionally) kill ribbit, abstraction is not death
3. Kaufmo simply wasnt her fault at all
English
I will say it.
Queer characters should be allowed to be flawed, to be messy, to majorly screw up.
Like any other character in fiction that happens to be straight or CIS.
And it's not faulty writing: it's about depicting people with nuance, whether they're LGBTQ+ or not.

@Kinocha__ @DrunkGenuine @reallifeuzi Nobody is saying abstraction is a happy ending. The disagreement is whether that tragedy functions as accountability for Jax’s actions, not whether the outcome itself is sad. (It isn’t btw)
English
@DrunkGenuine @HiHello370083 @reallifeuzi Yeah I really don't see how this can be considered anything other than tragic and sad. Like, in the same vein do we think the other abstractions are doing just fine? I guess all their trauma that led to abstraction is just fine actually
English
STOP INFANTILIZING US. STOP THINKING WE CAN'T BE BAD PEOPLE. STOP ACTING LIKE CLOSETED DYSPHORIA CAN'T BE PORTRAYED AS THE NIGHTMARE THAT IT IS OR THAT IT CAN'T HAVE MASSIVE RIPPLE EFFECTS ON SOMEONE'S MENTAL HEALTH. OH MY GOD YOU GUYS ARE PISSING ME OFF

English
@DrunkGenuine @Kinocha__ @reallifeuzi You’re treating a symbolic reading as a literal fact. The ending doesn’t show Jax being abandoned or imprisoned, it shows the others making accommodations for her and continuing to care about her.
English
@HiHello370083 @Kinocha__ @reallifeuzi she cant talk, have emotions or ever have the capacity to finalize her redemption in any capacity.
She doesn't really have anywhere to go (mind you, there's just the circus and nothing else) and she doesn't have a room anymore
She is literally locked away from paradise
English
@Kinocha__ @reallifeuzi Also I really don’t like this claim “well jax abstracted so that means the show DID hold him accountable!!” When that isn’t true.
English
@HiHello370083 @reallifeuzi At no point does the finale try to paint Jax as a good person. Jax isnt redeemed, isnt forgiven, and doesnt get to escape with no consequences. Jax will live for literal eternity in a half dead half alive fever dream state of broken abstraction.
English
@DrunkGenuine @Kinocha__ @reallifeuzi you’re over exaggerating. Jax is shown being cared for, given a comfortable place to stay, and remaining in the middle of the circus with everyone around him. You can interpret his fate as tragic or bittersweet, but that’s different from saying he’s being imprisoned.
English
@Kinocha__ @HiHello370083 @reallifeuzi They keep thinking "Jax got away with it" and the current fate of Jax is that she is stuck as the visage of a cautionary tale and forever bound, gagged and shackled away from the new life she could never accept.
And it's not even metaphor, she's literally a floating blob forever
English
@Kinocha__ @reallifeuzi Jax will live for literal eternity **PEACEFULLY WITH THE CARE OF POMNI AND EVERYBODY ELSE** in a half dead half alive fever dream state of broken abstraction.
English
@Kinocha__ @reallifeuzi Pancakes and waffles argument here because I never said the finale tried to paint him as a good person. But he is never called out for his actions and EVERYBODY forgives him and respects him after it.
English
@TheShadowBon @FreakyPippins the image provided is outdated, as this isn’t a theory anymore but my point still stands
English
@TheShadowBon @FreakyPippins how the “egg symbolism” people genuinely think that episode 6 scene was trying to do
Pomni: WHY WONT you fight me back??? I know youre scared of showing human emotions! Do you not want to fight me back? Do you care about me???
Jax: I’m trans, Pomni
English
addendum: I like that tadc shows a trans woman who's allowed to be a piece of shit and despite it all still be deserving of both her identity and love
English
i actually like that they made a trans character who's allowed to be a piece of shit
