got mad about the portrayal of adoption in media again. 10 dead 50 injured
#adoption on tv falls into three catagories.#1: white couple saves minority or disabled child from evil poverty parents#2. adoptive parents either outright stole OR never told baby they are adopted. baby reunites with birth parents and it goes super well#baby now has two loving families or abandons adopted family wholesale for the '''''''real''''' family#3. baby is afopted and obsessed with finding birth family for extremely nebulous reasons. either succeeds and follows path of scenario 2 or#fails and learns that it doesnt matter where you come from only where you are#now. im not daying these dont happen in real life.#but no one ever wants to talk abt the american white adoption infustry's evils when talking abt yhe evils in adoption. espcially with indig#children and imported children/fashionable adoption.#and on the positive side of these stories you never ever see a character just. Be Adopted. And It's Not A Big Deal.#like. as someone who was adopted. and very happy with my family deapite the fact that theyre stupid and conservative. i wouldnt trade them#for the world. because theyre my family. you know? i have no interest in meeting my birth parents betond wanting some medical history#questions answered and to know if i have siblings. and i know its not like that for everyone! but i would just love to see more then the#stupidest shit ever seen. you know.#off the top of my head the only portrayals of adoption that dont make me want to kill myself are like. po from kung fu panda and ruby#sunday from doctor who. that's pretty bad man. and BOTH of them atill fall within the three given catagories. WHATEVERRRRRR#anyway. sorry. induanted with elf ij the christmas season i hate that fucking movie so bad 😭#mi#also to be clear. i dont think its like. a moral failing to like elf#im just a hater. and also its just a yearly and very strong reminder of how fucking irritating j find all this
