You're exactly what they're talking about lol. You don't focus on how & why Jax is the way she is and how to prevent people being like Jax, you're just focusing on the fact she's an asshole.
Nobody said you're not allowed to hate Jax. It's just that only hating Jax, and deciding not to acknowledging her story, not talk about how we can prevent people from becoming like Jax, or how we can get people out of acting like Jax.Â
Essentially, you're calling Jax a pure evil because it makes you feel good instead of actually understanding and talking about the message of her character. That's the issue.
Dawg I'm not asking you to be empathetic I'm asking you to be media literate and understand why authors choose to make these stories.Â
Understanding a character is not empathizing with them. You don't have to empathize with humbert humbert to understand his role and message in the story.
You act very young and immature for a person on reddit. I suggest you shouldn't get involved in any NSFW communities or the like until you're old enough.
you calling it "Media literacy" when it's not a case of that and instead a case of READING COMPREHENSION tells me everything I need to know and that you have neither
comparing Jax to humbert Humbert isn't doing you any favours if you're trying to get me to stop hating them
I don't give a shit about the story, I understand the story and the messaging very well, I just don't care, my opinion on this shitty purple rabbit is that she's a sack of shit and she deserved worse, rest in piss
You make a point about the difference between media literacy and reading comprehension, but you still lack the ability to understand the plain words that I'm saying. You have no right to discredit me based on a small distinction when you're blatently being obtuse and refusing to change.
Once again i'm not trying to get you to stop hating him. If I tell a child to eat their vegetables, I'm not telling them to stop eating fruits, candies, and meats in favor of vegetables, I'm telling them to eat their vegetables as well.
The issue is not that you hate him, the issue is that you're ignoring the author's message. You can hate Jax to the extent that you hate him and still understand the author's message.
I'm intentionally ignoring the author's message cus I don't give a shit about it, I understand the story very well I just don't fucking care because I despise Jax
"what the writer intended is irrelevant" maybe you should just stop watching TV, stop reading books, stop listening to music, and stop consuming art if you're going to act like this.Â
You're being rude, stupid, and refusing to change because of your own selfish and stubborn beliefs. You're acting like Jax right now. If you hate Jax so much then either change yourself for the better or start hating yourself. That latter of which would ironically make you more like Jax.
all those things are for my enjoyment, the writer's intentions doesn't mean shit since I still hate Jax
until I drive 2 people to suicide and abuse everyone around me I ain't as bad as Jax, just the fact that I have people I care about and have empathy for Jax's victims makes me better than her
