My ultimate takeaway from Jax Amazing Digital Circus is that you have to believe it's possible to be loved. A lot of her behavior comes from being subjected to the belief that all a trans woman can be is a violent misogynist, a sexual abuser, a joke. She couldn't see any other path for her. She believed there wasn't a point to showing kindness or developing human kindness because that's all she'd be viewed as. So she cuts to the chase, she desolves into her archetype. She makes it her goal to errect giant flashing signs that say "I AM AN ABUSER AND UNWORTHY OF LOVE SO DON'T BOTHER" at the expense of everyone around her.
