I've fucking cursed myself with an animatic idea that I never made and now any song that's about the way the internet fucks with ur psyche gets automatically associated with monika in my mind

#monika ddlc #doki doki literature club #the original idea was welcome to the internet by bo burnham and was mostly focused on her epiphany #and now ive got you liked this (okay computer!) by will wood and the internet has ruined me by wilbur soot on my list #the latter is funny bc im very opposed to animating her with a love song #i dont want to reduce a character arc about cosmic horror and derealization and the desperation for human connection down #to “girl sad boy dont love her so she kill girls boy love” thats so fucking lame #but i could make tihrm work #if i ever got MOTIVATION #but anyways. long rant i have many thoughts but dobt wanna derail my own post #thinking about like. monika discovering everything about our world through the internet and more importantly. social media #and so her worldview is gonna be warped by default #social media conditions people to view others not as people but as faceless entities #its not “10 000 people saw what you wrote and agreed with it/found it funny” its “your post got 10 000 likes”#its not that the person re arguinh with is a human influenced by their environment and upbringing its that theyre shitty by default #or alternatively its not that the person ur arguing with is someone with an influence on the real world its just a troll here to piss u off #things like doxxing. suicide baiting. threats of violence. child porn. theyre all things that we know are bad but happen regardless because #the internet is anonymous. its ok bc subconsciously the person isnt really human. theyre just another faceless user #this must affect how she views her friends #after all. theyre less than just users. theyre ai #it doesnt matter if theyre no different than her. it doesnt matter if the things shes doing are horrible #people on the internet have done similarly bad things to other humans. its fine. shes not a bad person. its fine.#deleting her becomes the equivalent of learning the stranger u sent gore to is your neighbor who uve had pleasant conversations with #the brutal realization that its not a faceless entity. its a human being you know and love. and youve done horrible things to them.#god i really need to make a video essay on this huh #if u read all of this character analysis mwah ily
