i keep seeing the “talia twisted jason’s mind” take, so, reminder that talia saved jason’s life—literally, not just by restoring his mind—because if she hadn’t taken him from the streets when she did (~2 years after he died), the clench would have almost certainly killed him during the outbreak in gotham a couple of months later, and if not the clench, then the quake would’ve 100% done him in.
jason was a severely brain damaged and dissociated teenager on the streets with no shelter, supervision, or support. he’d be dead if she hadn’t taken him!!! no talia did not manipulate him into hating bruce; no jason does not hate her. she did a good thing and gave that little boy a life to live. quit villainizing her for that just to prop up your favorite white boys!!!
