There’s not enough people talking about how important Stephanie is to Damian’s growth pre-Flashpoint.

Bruce had seen Damian as a beast to be tamed, Tim sees him as a ticking time bomb, and Dick is far better with him but he’s still an authority figure for Damian to combat with. But then he meets Stephanie, a college-aged girl who nobody trusts and he bullies her relentlessly and becomes inseparable from her.

She doesn’t interact with him based on his past, but on what she can see. This 10 year old just threatened to kill her? Wow he doesn’t get outside much. He’s not old enough to have seen Gremlins. What do you MEAN you’ve never been inside a bouncy house before we are fixing that immediately.

They are like cousins to each other. They poke fun at each other for being lame and stupid and Dick has to tell them both to shut up. She doesn’t see him as a project to be molded and redeemed, he’s just a kid with a crappy childhood like her and if he’s nice to her for 5 seconds she’ll do something with him to let him feel like a kid. And he doesn’t look at her and see a liability or a failure or a lost cause, like everyone she’s ever interacted with does. When he’s awful to her, it’s because he’s an obnoxious preteen boy.

And then you get the “there’s room in our line of work for hope, too” scene. Because Damian has gotten to know Steph and he can’t fathom why she’s here. She obviously has had to deal with crap and is still working through being kept on a leash by Nightwing and Oracle, but she isn’t broken like the rest of them are. Damian is surrounded by people who were molded and shaped and torn down and broken to become the monoliths that they are, and then there’s this girl who seems so at peace with herself and is constantly making quips, and it’s so foreign to him.

And she tells him that she’s in his world because she believes people are worth fighting for.

anyway re this post:

when i was studying classical civilisation at a high school level we were taught this very old-fashioned idea that the shift from abstraction to realism in Ancient Greek art was an objective improvement.

basically they were still teaching that the guys on the left (less naturalistic, heavily egyptian influenced) ''''evolved'''' into the guy on the right as the Greeks got '''better''' at sculpture.

historically europeans were really into the idea that there's this objective 'best' form of art which is represented by graeco-roman sculpture, its renaissance imitators, and 'realistic' art in general. according to this understanding the end goal of art is to produce idk. Michaelangelo's David and the Mona Lisa. & abstract art is a less 'evolved' form of art.

& therefore according to this understanding, western artists opting to make abstract art instead of more ''''classical''' realistic works is an artistic 'devolution' and debasement.

this is all (I hope) self-evidently extremely racist and also undoubtedly a very basic understanding of art history. but for anyone who struggles to grap the relationship between fascism & hating modern art. this particular form of racism has got to be a big part of it.
