also the way that the nimona movie showed that hate is a taught behavior?? the way that gloreth, the hero worshipped for slaying monsters, was fully accepting of nimona until her mother told her what to believe? until that generational bigotry was passed down? the way the director’s motive wasn’t even power like most evil government figureheads in media, but rather a fear of monsters destroying the kingdom because that hate had been instilled in her too, like it had in gloreth? the way ballister was also indoctrinated into hatred of “monsters” until he was just as outcast as one? because only then was he willing to change and learn?? and how even people with good hearts and good intentions like ballister and ambriosius and even the queen herself are still capable of perpetuating bigotry and unnecessary violence when they don’t take the time to understand or learn about the “others” they supposedly hate????????? i need to lie down

romance is a type of friendship and im sick of people pretending like they're two seperate categories. your romantic partner is Supposed to also be your friend like at the very least why are we pitting romance AGAINST friendship when they r intertwined???? romantic partners are also friends and u can have romance with ur friends stop acting like these bitches are seperate forces

one of the functions of carcerality is that it sorts all transgression into "acceptable" or "warranting punitive violence"

and that means that anyone on the receiving end of some transgression needs to either defend the person who hurt them and insist it is 100% acceptable, or they are implicitly understood to be inviting punitive violence onto someone else.

that's why you get the chorus of "you want to ruin his life" when a rape survivor just talks about her own experience. you can't even discuss your own life without the implication that you verbalizing it as something that shouldn't be happening is inextricable from you supporting the prison system (or other forms of hegemonic social violence). carcerality transforms truth telling into a threat. saying what happened to you becomes socially translated and transformed into a kind of violence, and you become "an accuser."

and on the other end, when you oppose the prison industrial complex, you get the chorus of "you don't care about survivors" or "you support rape." to oppose punitive violence is framed as approval of all actions others wish to punish. abolitionists in a carceral framework are quickly constructed as the enemy of anyone who has ever been harmed.

the idea of dismantling structures that enable and facilitate these forms of violence becomes rhetorically unthinkable. not just a challenging endeavor but metaphysically impossible.

like this shit is so manipulative, and frustratingly few pick up on it.

you need to be able to let people talk about their lives, without immediately engaging in retributive violence, and start organizing to dismantle structures that made this harm possible.

we can not keep living like this.

knight who is constantly searching for a good and noble king to serve but cannot fucking find one for the life of him so he has to become the good and noble king himself.

and now all these other knights are coming around like "please let me serve you" and like obviously hes going to let them serve him thats the point of being a good and noble king but its also. very annoying. one of you become the good and noble king for once lets trade
