Hybrid defender since 2015. JW post.
In this house, we defend the hybrids. Every single one. Indominus rex? Victim. Indoraptor? Victim. Scorpios rex? Double victim. And whatever mutants show up in the next movie? Also victims. It has never, ever been their fault. They didn’t ask to be born. They didn’t hatch with some grand evil plan to destroy everything. They were made that way. They were forced into existence by greedy corporations and, most of all, by Henry Wu’s absolute god complex.
Let’s talk about Wu for a second because I refuse to let this man off the hook. The hatred I have for this man has been brewing for a decade; and the things I would do to his character if I could would send me to the electric chair with no water added. Wu has been at this since 1993. He knows what he’s doing. He knows the risks. He knows that every time he plays god, something awful happens. And yet, instead of learning his lesson, he just keeps pushing it further. He made Indominus deliberately unstable, left it isolated for months, and then acted surprised when it snapped. He designed Indoraptor to be sensitive to pain just so it would follow human orders. He abandoned Scorpios like it was garbage because it wasn’t "perfect" enough for him. Every single time, it’s the same story: Wu screws up, the dinosaurs suffer, and then everyone blames them.
And let’s not forget the corporations that fund this madness. Masrani Global, Eli Mills, Mantah Corp—all of them were just as guilty. They didn’t care about the animals they were creating. They saw them as weapons, theme park attractions, products. And the hybrids paid the price. Indominus spent its entire life alone, in a cage, going insane. Indoraptor was tortured for research and died scared and in pain. Scorpios was so unstable it didn’t even recognize its own kind. Every single one of them was made to be dangerous, given no chance at a real life, and then blamed when things went exactly as expected.
And I can already hear people gearing up to say, “But they killed people!” Yeah, NO SH1T SHERLOCK. What do you think happens when you build something in a lab, give it predatory instincts, let it suffer its entire existence, and then throw it into a world it doesn’t understand??!That’s not on the dinosaurs. That’s on the people who created them, locked them up, and then acted like shocked Pikachu when things went bad. You don’t get to play god, design an animal to be a nightmare, and then blame them for reacting; a very valid reaction btw because let's not forget the fact that the hybrids are completely new, they are trying to understand where they sit in the ecosystem. That’s like setting a fire and then getting mad at the flames.
And now we’re getting new mutants in the next Jurassic movie, and I already know people are going to start calling them monsters. I’m not having it. Whatever happens, whatever chaos unfolds, it’s not their fault. If they attack, it’s because they were made to attack. If they lash out, it’s because they don’t know any other way to survive. Just like Indominus. Just like Indoraptor. Just like every hybrid before them. They never had a chance. They were set up to fail from the moment they hatched.
Leave my babies alone, everything is Wu's fault.
So no, I will not blame the hybrids. I will not call them monsters. I will not act like they were “too dangerous to live.” The only monsters in Jurassic Park are the humans who keep making the same mistakes over and over again.
