Riki/ The Befuddled Dumbass

i'm in Ireland and the search for that bastards name is still blocked and hidden... the legnths the british go to defend and protect their instruments of colonialism and violence is beyond belief. no justice for the victims and yet every measure taken to protect David James Cleary and his fellow murderers.

Returning to my roots this pride with a little jayjon doodle except it didn’t turn out how I wanted it to.

Was aiming for kinda reconnecting in their 30’s but Jay’s still pissed off and Jon’s oblivious. Hence the giving Jay facial hair but idk if it comes across as him now… anyway please see Jon with moustache under the cut

now, almost all of the bigoted remarks are happening in the present day with no framing to indicate how the audience is supposed to feel about them. they are primarily played for comedy rather than drama and the audience is encouraged to laugh at the marginalized (especially racialized and ESPECIALLY Black) characters.

Specifically, I think he'd see it as his DUTY to become a politician. I think that, seeing his mother do as much good as she can, meeting other politicians, and getting to know the people- Jay would think he has to. Not because his mother pressures him, no, she would support him no matter what. But because Jay realizes the privilege he has and the situation he's in that not many people get. He has connections that other people don't, he knows things they don't, he's understood processes that other people have to learn since he was young, all because his mom is Sara Nakamura.

He also knows that people in politics who care for and love their nation are extremely few and far between.

This is why he takes it upon himself to get involved. To do his part, and use his privilege thoroughly. To follow in his mother's footsteps and then go even further, because he has a name that the people trust and the smarts plus passion to go with it.
