HORRIFIC REALIZATION

I just solved why iPad kids exist and why people hate them

ITS FUCKING ABLEISM AGAIN, ITS MOTHER FUCKING ABLEISM!

holy shit how did I not figure this out it should have been OBVIOUS, it’s literally repackaged autism hate.

remember the shit people keep complaining about?

“They don’t understand social cues” “they don’t talk” “they are mute” “they only like skibidi toilet” “their attention span is so short” “they are loud” “they don’t like people” “they yell and scream”

all that shit, and more they keep saying.

oh my actual fucking god, they don’t care about the kids they just hate neurodivergent kids.

listen tho, listen to me.

I’m autistic/adhd, I used to yell and scream and meltdown, I used to be mute, I have a “short attention span” I am all those things. And I used an iPad, but I was all those things prior, I had always been.

There is no such thing as “iPad kid brainrot” ITS MOTHER FUCKING UNDIAGNOSED NEURODIVERGENCE!

IT ALL MAKES FUCKING SENSE THO?!

It all makes SENSE, oh my actual god how the fuck did it take me so long to figure it out.

you may think I;m crazy but think about it for a minute, just please think.

the rise in autism and neurodiversity awareness, the rise of dignosis in women and children, and acceptance.

and also the fact that neurotypical people can pick autistic and neurodivergent people out immediately, and how they are reacting to iPad kids.

like think about it, it makes mother FUCKING SENSE!

why all of a sudden? Why not before? Why is there this burning hatred for these kids?

like it’s because they are the undiagnosed kids, they are the mentally ill kids, they present like this, I should know!

I KNOW LITERALLY LIKE 3 OF THEM! Personally and closely

AND HAVE MET AND DISCUSSED WITH LIKE 200+

you guys it all makes sense!

why it felts so icky to me, the demonization, and generalization.

just it clicks together now.

like holy shit, it makes so much sense.

like how alluka is a trans girl and pakunoda is implied trans woman and killua is more or less transmasc and somehow a not insignificant portion of hxh fans will bend over backwards to say that it's just 'circumstantial' or 'reminiscient of japanese culture' etc...they'd drool over togashi's subversion of shounen tropes and write essays about the reflected and reversed parallels of humanity and good and evil between the protags and antags but god forbid that poor old japanese mangaka even try to formulate a trans person, he's just confused don't push your woke nonsense on his delicate eastern proclivities

can argue to death with me about how age restrictions on youtube are necessary but i will be DAMNED before i say Hinds Hall deserved to be age restricted. average american child on youtube can listen to H*rbu D*rbu (censoring in hopes to avoid algorithm engagement with the song) which is IOF praising genocidal propaganda, and- big fucking shocker- its not age restricted. i’m 100% sure the only reason Hind’s Hall was restricted was to deliberately suppress and avoid the spread of the song.

Not gonna lie, maybe this is supremely petty of me (it is), but as someone who is the very embodiment of a casual gamer and can name vastly more video games than he has ever actually played, the backlash to the Minecraft movie trailer is perversely satisfying to me, because... yeah no shit, of course this was what Hollywood was always going to turn out.

Like did you really think that a video game movie languished in development hell for a decade because they were just sitting on an absolute gold mine of an idea, and not that they had consistently and singularly failed to get any idea off the ground? Then again, the Mario movie was supposedly going to be the absolute worst thing in history because Chris Pratt, only to have the discourse completely shift to how wrong the evil/woke critics were to think the Italian plumber kids' movie wasn't the single defining moment of twenty-first century cinema.

So y'know, capital G gamers are both fickle and whiny. Shocking information. See you all in a few months when a clip referencing the Yogscast or some shit goes viral and everyone decides that you're not allowed to bad-mouth it without being shot in the back of the head and dumped on the I-405.

sidebar to get ahead of this before some smart-arse points it out: "oh you're just mad 'cause they called out critics"

uh yeah actually i do kinda take issue with hordes of people spouting borderline anti-intellectual rhetoric about how the thing i do for a pseudo-living is empty and meaningless. it's just like the widespread "haha what if the author just wanted to make le curtains le blue" snickering. like yeah am i expecting everyone to deep dive into the relationship between auteurism and profit under the capitalist studio system in order to analyse a random book trilogy? no of course not, i fully understand that i'm just very mentally ill and probably have an outsized grasp of my own writing abilities.

but looking down your nose at people who choose to think about media in that way is indicative of nothing more than your own staggering lack of curiosity, and it's a pretty good answer for how you get to a declaration that the people of the uk have had enough of experts, or a world in which there's a real possibility that americans are somehow going to look at the events of 2017 to 2021 and say "more of that please" come november.

so no, don't expect me to coddle your desire to retreat from the world back into your fond childhood memories just for the sake of it. that's not a critic's job.

and btw im in my hater arc rn. as time goes on the more i find a lot of 'fandom' stuff insufferable (i like art n stuff. just the way that fandom refits every media to fit a single mold and set of boring archetypes is exhausting.)

i just get really easily annoyed lately. and have been unfollowing people on a whim a lot. its not personal i promise

Fun fact!

The U.S. last officially declared war in 1942 against Austria in world war 2! Every war we’ve had since has not been formally declared because our government can still send over military forces and support without declaring war!

Additional fun fact, the United States has been in a constant state of war since long before I was born without officially declaring any of it! My entire senior class and at least 3 graduating classes before us have never known the US in a state of peace!

Ran out of answer spaces but! I felt it was important to split off Team Plasma since there is a significant ideological difference between them (as far as I remember each ideation of Team Rocket has the same goals/beliefs, Giovanni himself just stepped down and changed his mind)

That said! This is less about favorite gen and more about believing in the beliefs -- especially interesting to consider if you align with the Main Villain and their outlook, or if you believe in the so-called "cause" that may or may not be true, or have some truth to it (like, if you wanted to help Pokemon like og Plasma and Aether Foundation).

Sorry to lump Yell and Star together, I was going chronologically!! You'll have to specify which and why in the tags haha (if you want to that is!)

And honestly that goes for any choice, sell it to me. Why should I join Your team?

anyway forget a spongebob episode or whatever the TRUE lost media white whale is whoever originally drew these pixel horse linearts which were endlessly remixed into sprite sheets and premades on literally HUNDREDS of little internet horse websites run by 12-16yo scandinavian girls in the 00s

i need you to know that ever since three years ago when you posted the first part of your tua hogwarts au, i have been deeply obsessed with it. it has lived with me rent free for three long years. nonstop.

adfsSFDghASDF i'm glad !! i do really have a guilty pleasure for hogwarts aus, though it's for a version that i've built in my head based on my siblings retellings and fandom over the years! admittedly i,,, never actually read the whole series even as a kiddo

though fun fact: one of my earliest memories is going to see the first harry potter movie in 2001 when i was like, four-ish? i fell asleep and woke up during the part where the unicorn is being vampire'd which certainly made an impression lol

sometimes i think i'd like to properly write it up but that would require a deeper dive into hp than i'm willing to make tbh, though i get away with surface knowledge and quickly googled questions in my little scribbly tumblr posts ;3c
