man i think there are legitimate difficulties and limitations wrt what to do about dream at the s2 finale

but also nobody engages with this while also acknowledging that the prison as it exists (even before quack/ity’s torture started) is wildly horrifying and clearly was prioritizing punishment over all else

and maybe the best solution would have ended up being horrifying to someone! in fact i think this is very plausible, and i don’t know that i’m convinced that there are any meaningfully viable alternatives that would successfully not wrong anyone, although i really want to have a conversation sometime about this because i really do think it’s a difficult situation? obviously, like, dream redemption arc would fix it just fine, but you... can’t actually force dream to grow and change and become a better person? and you can’t (or at least, uh, shouldn’t) force people to interact with him or like him, and he’s good enough at the game that.... you really do in fact need to limit him quite a lot for him to not be able to get to a place where he would be able to kill tub/bo, and at the s2 finale that is a serious danger that it makes sense for characters to be prioritizing minimizing

but also canon clearly didn’t even try to find a best solution, it would be so easy to make the prison better for dream without compromising security, and i feel like people..... don’t acknowledge that at all 

and so i just always feel very conflicted about arguments about what Should have happened at the s2 finale because. idk. probably at least in part because none of the options are actually good here and “this is the best solution imo” is so easily elided to “this is a good solution”. idk. sometimes situations aren’t fixable and they just kind of suck. and maybe also partly because i don’t actually think any of the options that actually got brought up in canon are the best solution but they’re the only ones that get brought up when discussing what characters should have done

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

this is technically a vaguepost though honestly the intent is for anyone to be able to easily deduce what I’m referencing but let me just say there’s a reason I don’t reblog political (or indeed even very opinionated) posts from white leftists. 98 times out of 100 it’s proven to me that I cannot trust like that
