#bey's shit

And the video was basically trying to find something "good" in those villains and it started with the Judge and the good thing they listed was "he saved the Idiot from drowning" which had me like NOOOO-

The idiot (called so by the text) is a disabled person called James Robert Bell who was imprisoned by his brother in a wooden cage and used as an attraction to make money.

At some point women see him like this and judge the shit out of his brother, take him out of the cage which they burn down, clean him up and give him clothes.

After that he walks towards the large river and would have drowned had Judge Holden not gotten hold of him.

And I'm thinking NO, do not even think about seeing this as an act of kindness because Judge Holden KEEPS THE GUY AS A PET!

The video did continue by saying that this act is still iffy because "he prolly just did it because the idiot is easy to manipulate" and I'm thinking NOOOOO-

The Judge is manipulating everyone else! He manipulates the gang, he manipulates the authorities, the manipulates the Apache, he manipulates anyone who is not the main character Kid (who refuses to engage with him like the smart boi he is)

What he does to James Robert is NOT manipulation, its stripping him of all humanity because he liked the idea of a human pet.

I remember watching Wendigoon's video on the book and while I like the fella I found his interpretation of the Judge taking James Robert in to be off, saying "He seems to have a soft spot for him" NO, a soft spot is what the Janitor from Scrubs feels for Elliot, Judge Holden was just trying out a human pet fetish with an unwilling participant.

I honestly consider the fact that James Robert is a disabled person to be reason these ideas even exist, that what the Judge does to him isn't the horror it actually is because it doesn't happen to an abled person of solid mind. When it's pretty much even MORE horrifying to happen to a disabled person because he couldn't defend himself, and neither can actually disabled people who are treated like objects and/or pets by their caretakers or support workers.

Honestly, James Robert's part of the story was one of the more harder things for me personally to stomach because I got to know a lot of heavily-disabled people who would be defenseless against such horrible treatment. The amount of joy I felt when the women in the book finally commented on how horrible this treatment is was indescribable.

And see I never watched MAWS but I looked up this scene and I am NOT a fan of this "background character hijabi" shit getting praise in general and here I am like WHY IS HER STOMACH SHOWING???

The full outfit is a mini skirt with tight leggings which is ALSO NONSENSE!

I wear hijab and I did bad cosplay. I wore normal pants with a long medium skirt in the same colour for guy characters because it was important to me to not show my crotch and butt. Latest cosplay I did featured a really long tshirt for the same reason. I bought long gloves so the skin on my arms isnt showing. Ive seen so many hijabi cosplayers better than me who dont show their midriff or wear tights with a mini skirt.

Cant speak for everyone but I def would like if people who think slapping a hijab on a background character is progressive actually educated themselves about hijabis, the women wearing it, not the clothing.

And here the traditional art setup:

And traditional art has extra perks like:

More expensive

Takes more room

Get paint on skin

Get paint on clothes

Get paint on furniture

Having to do clean up

Having to wait for paint to dry before I can continue

Half the painting process is actually colour mixing and being frustrated when the colour aint right

Needing even more room to store artworks
