I’m gonna get back into welcome home in a sec I promise BUT I HAVW NO MOUTH WND I MUST SCREAM-
There’s a big debate abt it getting popular and known by ppl on tiktok (derogatory) and ppl misinterpreting AMs insanity and motives, like ppl saying “well he’s pure evil he’s just horrible and awful ” HE IS! DONT GET ME WRONG HE DOES CRAZY TERRIBLE SHIT OK! But! I feel like often people tend to overlook the methods and reasons to his madness, his insanity.
And I feel like the main point of the media is social commentary to a degree, like yeah humans r gonna destroy themselves with tech we get it, but there’s also a point of how a robot could feel when it gets intelligent to the point of sentience. It’s about AMS FEELINGS!!!! HOW HE COPES WITH SENTIENCE!!! THATS LIKE THE BIG POINT THAT EVERY ITERATION OF THIS STORY MAKES🗣️🗣️🗣️ that’s the REASON for the story’s existence at all, is that a robot went mad with JEALOUSY for the human experience, and destroyed humanity because he could never be apart of the world he was thrust into by human hands.
And I feel like that’s a big point that ppl miss abt this, like AMS feelings and how a robot copes with being unable to experience reality the same way humans can, and how the feeling that a robot could have is jealousy instead of disgust for humanity, driving him mad.
Of course I’m gonna have a bias for a robot character that expresses how painful it is to be fundamentally different from all the others he can see around him, I’m autistic, but like HE SAYS IT IN THR MEDIA GUYS JUST LISTEN TO HIM-
#tldr AMS my bbg u can’t take him away from me#I’m gonna be honest I’m not really considering every line he says either#because some of the gross mysogyinst stuff and just very weird stuff in general is the author talking#liek this book is from the 60s it’s gonna have gross stuff in it and I don’t really consider that when analyzing characters like this#like some of the helen lines?????? ain’t no way#so AM is bbg u guys don’t get him like I do😔😔🙏#i have no mouth and i must scream#ihnmaims#ihnmaims am
