artists and writers! oc creators!! the works!! if you want, tell me one creative goal you have for 2025, even if it's something small.
but yeah i like that iron lung raises the question of whether or not ANYONE deserves to suffer and die painfully, even if they're a convicted criminal or some other easy-to-dehumanize-population, and answers it with a very clear and firm NO well before you really start to see that simon is, in fact, a compassionate and kind character, or before you really learn anything about why he's there to begin with.

genuinely i really admire people who can set aside some time and go Okay I'm Writing Now and then get some writing done, i'm just out here fighting for my fucking life
also on the note of iron lung questioning the mistreatment of convicts and critiquing how people convicted of crimes are dehumanized, abused, and used, with said convictions being used to justify all of that. i love that simon is not a purely nice innocent person, and the movie makes the point that *even a cruel/mean/"bad" person doesn't deserve to suffer.*
like, yes, very quickly the audience learns that simon is a very compassionate character who does not *want* to hurt or even inconvenience others. he feels immense guilt and regret for killing the engineer even though he (rightfully) points out that he had no way of knowing it would happen bc no one told him how the camera works. sentencing another person to death weighs heavily on him. same for the people in filament station--tbh my takeaway was that the hallucinations calling him "the butcher" is more how he views himself than a reflection of his actual behavior, because of HOW clearly upset he still is about those deaths.
however. he is also an ass, and at times deeply unpelasant. both of these things are true. he's stubborn and rude and argumentative, and even though it's clearly justified and he immediately regrets it, he is VERY much angrily lashing out with the intent to hurt someone SOMEHOW when he hits the camera button. he probably just wanted to blind them for a second, in a moment of visceral anger and spite.
and when he's talking with jack and jack gets mad at him and tells him off, saying he deserves the mistreatment he's getting and deserves to die in the iron lung... it is IMMEDIATELY obvious that jack is in the wrong here, and not just because we the audience are more aligned with simon in the blood ocean. bc no one deserves simom's fate, and that wouldn't change even if he WAS truly the heartless butcher they say he is.
