It's honestly kinda infuriating how when someone who never watched tadc and is outside of the fandom asks about the discourse and people respond with "people are just mad that Jax is trans and an asshole", cause like. Chat, the racism. Chat, the bad writing. Chat, the numerous amount of bigotry woven within the writing.
It just feels like a gross oversimplification of things
"You know, getting close with Pomni... to corrupt her"
What If she did corrupt Pomni? I know I'm pulling this out of my ass but hear me out...
Episode 1-4 Pomni would NEVER with jax and her bullshit. But then to react like she did in finale, or rather her lack of reaction to anything she saw inside jax's mind was off putting. That's not the Pomni I grew to love.
So what if jax did corrupt her files/data intentionally or unintentionally, like with the vegan thing. Because jax knew how to use the conjuring power well before anyone else.
Does this excuse Pomni low-key forcing jax's victims to help her especially after she saw what jax thought of them? No it doesn't but it does put my mind at ease speculating why she behaved the way she did.
I’m not “media illiterate” for wanting important character development to be shown on screen, whether verbally or visually.
I’m not “media illiterate” for wanting the lore that was introduced to be actually developed, regardless of the fact that the show is “character-based.”
I’m not “media illiterate” for wanting more than ONE character of the cast to be focused on.
I’m not “media illiterate” for calling out wasted potential

Evil? Sure. Heartless? Nah.
I'm all for shitting on jax and dragging him to the guillotine for how he treated my blorbos. I like to list how wrong jax x character ships are. And you can agree with me or disagree with me.
We all have our preferences.
If I eat ice cream with a straw, that's my choice. You can ask me why I'm doing that, how I have the patience to do that, but you know what you can't do? Snatch my straw and try to force a spoon or fork into my hand and scream at my face about how counterproductive it is.
There is an age old saying in fandoms. Don't like Don't read. Your kink (or ship) is not my kink (ship) and that's okay.
I get it, we all see something, an opinion or an argument that's irrevocably bonkers. The best we can do is ignore it, if it still bothers you, make a general post ranting about it, unrelated to the original post. (Even if the OG post and op are spewing racist, qeerphobic and personal hate, I - a poc usually ignore it because engagement = attention = arguing with the wall. Instead I make a counterargument, separately it usually gathers all the like-minded people and we can have nice conversations)
It's easy to be hurtful when you think your actions have no consequences, taking out your frustrations on unsuspecting individuals. But when a show like TADC has such an unsatisfactory ending (personally), the fandom should stick together to share out fanarts and fanfic and work as a community. (We should also hold hands, sing dance, braid hairs, and make flower crowns)
TL;DR: Spread love (or indifference) not hate (or do it somewhere else, without hurting anyone intentionally), KINKTOMATO, Don't like? Don't interact
(Real quick, I'll be referring to Jax with He/Him pronouns in this post. Not as disrespect but simply because within the show he never makes the transition to female or neutral pronouns. I only found out yesterday that Goose confirmed Jax as transfemme, but if this does upset anyone I will gladly fix my mistake! I'll also be discussing sexual harassment, mentions of suicide, and discuss racism and my experience with it) I saw the Amazing Digital Circus finale recently and. like. I've genuinely just been so disappointed by all of it. I've disliked Jax since They All Get Guns, and it only evolved into genuine hatred in the last episode. Because so many things about this finale pissed me off and the way people are defending Jax is the biggest. I'll go through the two things that pissed me off the most: Jax and the use of Isn't She Lovely. First, one thing I've seen when it comes to Jax's little fantasies about the others abstracting is that they're just intrusive thoughts. As someone who personally struggles horribly with intrusive thoughts from OCD (specifically Taboo OCD which I've recently started getting therapy and medication for), I think we should make a distinction here. The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) classifies intrusive thoughts as sudden, unwanted mental images or thoughts that are repetitive. They are typically startling, often distressing, and run contrary to a person's actual values or desires. Jax strangling Pomni is, to me, not at all an intrusive thought considering this does not go against his character at all and he has never once hesitated to harm another member of the circus. There are many examples:
Strangling Pomni isn't something I see Jax hesitating to do at all. It would not distress him and he would not hesitate. Especially with how he 'plays it off' in the fantasy as well by laughing at her for being distressed. I was honestly very shocked there was no disclaimer for that scene, it was genuinely upsetting and sudden and I don't want to sound sensitive but it could've been triggering to someone.
I also think his harassment of Gangle is not an intrusive thought either. And seeing people treat his bizarre sexual harassment as a Ribbun ship moment gives me the worst feeling in my gut. It is not cute. She's actively manic in that scene and grieving someone Jax seems to think Gangle loves (considering his fantasy where Gangle abstracts has Zooble claim she was the only person they loved). Along with Jax just blatantly mocking Zooble's gender identity at their own funeral. I can genuinely believe that Jax would've harassed Gangle like this if Zooble wasn't around.
In general, I think the framing of this finale doesn't condemn Jax like it should. He drove Ribbit to suicide, because abstraction is treated as suicide. He is revealed to be, in his own thoughts, a violent person who enjoys tormenting other people. And I feel like his talk with Ribbit was supposed to make me feel bad for him, but I don't. He is not the only person in the circus to suffer, but he is the only person in the circus to take it out on everyone around him. Pomni hugging him really took away any potential theme of "there's no excuse for hurting others" there could've been in here. I'm definitely considering making a post comparing Jax and Ted because there's a lot in common here but Ted is actually more interesting to me.
Everyone putting Jax in his tent and Gangle crying for him pissed me off so bad. It just came down to a "bully was bullied actually" thing, except Jax didn't even force out an apology as Pomni was hugging him. He couldn't even be bothered to apologize and instead was whining about how she's not supposed to care about him, GET OVER YOURSELF. Pomni is a whole other can of worms but I will not be touching it because I don't want to.
The use of Isn't She Lovely actually took me from "disinterested and not really feeling anything" to actually fucking incandescent though. And some of the defenses I've seen of the writers taking a song about Black joy from a Black man about the birth of his daughter? They piss me off so bad. I don't care if the song was picked because it's being "reinterpreted for Jax being transfem", I don't care I don't care I don't care GET OUT OF MY HOUSE. It IS THAT DEEP. You can't just DO THAT. And the man who covered the song is associated with 'anti-woke' creators which is just racism with fancy wording. Now every time I try to search this song I'm just going to be assaulted by TADC, thanks Goose. Also, a song written by a Black man being chosen sits so poorly with me personally after everything that's come out about the cast and Goose herself regarding their less than savory "Nega" jokes.
I genuinely don't understand how 'Nega Angel' was funny, or the black shirt with 'Nega' on it. "Hahahaha 'Nega', it sounds like a slur" I was literally called "Nig" throughout middle school because, and I quote, "You're only half black so we won't call you the whole thing" and a pair of boys would split it between themselves with one calling me "Nig" and the other calling me "Ger". A slur isn't funny. A word sounding close to a slur isn't funny. It's lazy, hateful, insulting, and Ashley, Michael, and Goose should be ashamed because they are and were grown adults. I don't see how a word being close to the N-word is funny, because I've had words that were just shy of the N-word said to me while people put gum in my hair since I was 12 til I was 14. Maybe I'm just being sensitive, but I do think there are good places to tell race jokes like in South Park or the Boondocks. I get that people can grow and change, but Goose didn't even apologize for the nega thing, and then they appropriated Stevie Wonder's beautiful song for his daughter and put it in a fucking AMV montage about an abusive asshole who is so miserable and can't accept himself that he feels like hurting others is acceptable because it's all "fake". Jax feels like the kind of person who'd abuse his Norns in that weird 90s game Creatures.
I honestly just can't believe I drew fanart of this show and was excited to see where it would take me and how the characters would grow and then I got the fucking Jax Show featuring Pomni and Those Other Guys. What a fucking disappointment.
Remember that one scene when Pomni says, "In here, I'm just Pomni." I think every will go along with that and stick to their circus name EXCEPT Gangle.
I headcanon that she'll either go by Zoey or pick another name.
Zooble will engrave that name on one (or all) of their limbs and accessories
I wish Ragatha had been in a better show. It's so painfully clear that the show thought they were being subversive in the idea of a "deconstructing the people pleaser archetype" but the writing is not good enough to carry it through the finish line. And that archetype only works if you have good foils and contrasts again them (Pomni and Jax are neither). Ragatha is a punching bag throughout the show, her feelings and experiences are minimized, people claim that she's insincere because she's not ALWAYS upfront with her feelings like most human beings, and apparently even in the past everyone like Ribbit and Kaufmo favored Jax? And she was in the right to be worried about Pomni's friendship with Jax. ...That doesn't even go into the fact that she was apparently friends with Jax and he was supposedly less of an asshole at some point, neither of which that we see. Her entire character for the last half of the show is unimportant and diminished. She doesn't even get a reaction, good or bad, to knowing that Kinger, one of the people she's closest to had a hand in why all of them are trapped there??? We spend 95% on Jax's nonsense and all I can wonder is how Ragatha didn't abstract? That would've been a tragic yet satisfying follow up to the idea that the worst thing you can do is make someone feel like they're unloved. Jax is not unloved. He's prioritized to the point where it defies reason. His demons are his own. Ragatha has seen multiple people abstract, is the second longest human at the circus and feels constantly isolated and blames herself for it. Such a frustrating lack of conclusion to a character with so much potential.

"Some of ya'll didn't understand ep 9 and have no media literacy-"
Okay then, do us the favour of explaining the episode! And please do tell us what media literacy is, because you understand it so well and you most definitely aren't using it as a nonsensical excuse!
We critiques are mainly complaining about how the last episode is almost completely centered around Jax, and how the other characters didn’t get as much attention as he did. And we're really wondering how we're incorrect when most of the movie was in fact centered around Jax! The rabbit that abused, harassed and terrorized the rest of the cast!
'no no jax isn't a misogynist he only targets women because the other men are god and an insane man' are you saying he couldn't gaslight kinger into believing things or making him an accomplice or do some im in your walls shit to get him paranoid, fuck up his pillow fort whatever because if he's doing that to the girls he could just as easily do that to kinger, one of the most common ways to be a piece of shit is. making ableist jokes
'but he likes kinger kingers nice to him' ragatha and gangle are nice too and he's still exploiting their fears and insecurities 'he knows kingers kindness is genuine' how they don't know shit about each other
not stim related and tadc spoilers
just posting on my main so more people see it.
"Isn't she lovely?"
No, no she ain't. And neither is the choice of the song you are grossly appropriating.
I can acknowledge that jax was a complex character and still hate her.
