Hmm, yeah, you and I see very very different things in the show.

For me, Gummygoo was one of the pylons, that made the show what it is.

Even just functionally for the plot, his death(murder) fucked Pomni up, being one of the most important parts (and triggers) of her character growth, leading to everything else that Pomni made happen in the show. (It also gave characterization for Cain, but that’s just characterization, not plot, so yeah)

But I guess each person sees and cares about different parts of an art work.

Is part of your take,

“Time spent on Gummigoo was unnecessary for the whole story”?

Can you explain your thoughts on this?

I see how you could read a version of this post that wasn’t mean spirited, as you describe.

But this specific post, doesn’t do that good-will commentary that you describe.

They’re not pet-baby-anarchists, they’re pet anarchists.

The examples it’s using, are not the real problems one has, when first starting to get out of authoritarianism (inner cops we all have in us), they’re fucking production problems, which are

trivially

easy to answer and reconstruct in good faith, it just takes time to explain, because we live in nested systems of violence, and have been bullied to think that that’s reality.

This post relies on you assuming:

decentralized production is stupid,

in order to, by extension, say that

anarchists are stupid.

In this way, anyone who has suspicions about one of the two maybe being true, can be convinced that both are true.

Textbook fascistic propaganda methods, literally out of Nazi Minister of Propaganda’s playbook.

Sorry, but in the interest of being brief, I’d say you’re being victim-blamey. I bet your intentions are good, but we’re taught to think in this toxic way:

“If all anarchists had good takes, {others wouldn’t attack them}.”

“If baby anarchists never spoke until fully fledged, [we wouldn’t have this problem].”

“If she didn’t buy a taser and get self defense training, <she shouldn’t dress like that>.”

Yeah, no. When someone attacks, keep your attention on the attacker.

Not gonna lie, this feels disingenuous.

It’s just political bait disguised as a “meme”.

It doesn’t even contain any good discourse about anarchism, just tired tropes of infantilisation.

Eh, why even post this?

I pray to god this is wrong, and they just get hidden little tubes with fake cum, strapped along to their tip, like normal people.
