I love how one of Jonathanâs main reasons for being a villain is for the sake of collecting research on fear bc. Like. Whatâs his end goal!!! Even if he did collect enough data, whatâs he going to do? Publish it? With what journal? I think he committed at least two or three ethic violations.
And the other reason why he does this shit is because he was made fun of by his peers and like!! Girlie!!! Ppl arenât laughing at u bc U were skinny theyâre laughing because youâll never become an accomplished scholar with these data retrieval methods!!!
I think about the first half of this very often. This is such a varied data set that I don't even know what conclusion he's trying to draw from it, maybe just general knowledge about fear. But this isn't learning, it's research. He's got the qualitative research, but the quantitative research is scattered, to say the least. I'm making very little sense.
My personal headcanon is that he knows that other scientists are going to make case studies on the specifics of the fear toxin and actually get published, and he's just gonna read that and go ":) I am contributing to the sciences :)"
