still losing my mind over the 2011 MobyDick shows decision to make Stubb, second mate Mr. "makes fun of the disabled captain and bullies the older Black cook and treats Fedallah with violence repeatedly and threatened a child with slavery and then abandoned him to drown" Stubb an anti racist like gbskfjekfk. i never thought I'd be mad about an adaptation making a character less racist but the decision to make all the officers #Good White People who correct the racist lower sailors is SO OFF THE POINT OF SYSTEMIC CAPITALISM THAT MELVILLE WAS TRYING TO MAKE. AND it takes away the agency of the characters of color defending themselves and each other WHICH THEY DO IN NOVEL, in favor of making Mr Racism now suddenly in favor of diversity i just

the POINT is inherently unfair systems and power dynamics and the violence of capitalism. the point is finding community and rallying against the awful oppressors who are in charge. finding community even within that. sanitizing the oppressors feels very very weird to me

never in my life would I have thought I would ship a canonically married couple, a decent presbyterian and a kind cannibal pagan, who both involved in the whaling from a novel written in a biblical style in 1851

...Because the man has a gift that deserves to be appreciated.
Case in point:

There are very, very few actors/actresses capable of making me genuinely tear up like this man right here.☝️☝️☝️
It's a true gift, born straight from the natural sensitivity of his soul. The ability to break and heal your heart again and again in the best way possible. 🥺💔❤️
(And he's just getting more and more accomplished at it with age!! 🙏)

"You will live!"
They sure made this Ahab a dark protagonist haunted by himself and bringing the doom of everyone with him. Knowing he is getting crazy but deciding it is but a biblical hero, what will happens is but what was written. Saving the only boy believed in him, because he was too innocent to understand the doom he was bringing.
