(writing with a glitter gel pen) i'm losing my sense of humanity

I LEFT FOR 2 MONTHS
WHAT IS THIS
YALL LIKE THIS BOT THAT MUCH
“childhood drawing.”
so. I'm probably going to get flayed for this, but after a long conversation with my friend [who doesn't watch II; i kinda just ranted to her], my opinion on the recent arc has changed. that DOESN'T make me a hypocrite though, i just gained my own views rather than listening to who sounded smarter
you can disagree with me and thats fine but if you invalidate anyone else's view on the show because you think the arc sucks, that's sad. point blank. the creators have been planning this for years, i doubt they're doing this for kicks
and while there is some evidence to Cobs lying about MePhone4 creating everyone, theres much more evidence for it rather against, at least in my perspective [aka FORESHADOWING]
so, again in MY OPINION WHICH COULD BE PROVEN WRONG, being created by mephone doesn't invalidate the character's arcs. its mirroring [similar to the 3GS and MePhone4 scenes]
Cobs created MePhone4 to be a war machine, he rebelled, and became his own person. what says that the people created BY MEPHONE [repeated cycle of abuse ig] CANT BE THEIR OWN PEOPLE TOO. sure they don't have families. sure they were made from stereotypes [mephone doesn't know any better because he WASN'T TAUGHT BETTER, NOT BECAUSE HES A CHILD], but they've deviated from the norm
yes, making people like Tissues perpetually sick was kinda mean, but i doubt he made suitcase with her hallucinations though. she developed those because shes her own PERSON, even if not beyond the show. some characters could've be modeled after mephone's experiences himself [ill go into that on a follow up post]
and yes, time is screwed. not sure about the whole 'mephone leaving for half a day and creating a whole season' but maybe he messed with time unintentionally? we already know his sense of time is shitty anyways
and paintbrush being nonbinary? that could've been out of his control. his reign over what he creates isnt the best
Inanimate Insanity is his, yes, unhealthy coping mechanism. he doesn't have anyone to turn to but his own creations because guess what, i think cobs is like that too, and the cycle repeats until the cycle is broken by the predecessors. mephone needs to let go, and get some help, yeah, but that doesnt mean who he created cant be real people. THE PEOPLE HE CREATED MADE BOT, SO THEY'VE EFFECTIVELY CONTINUED THE CYCLE, YET DEVIATED FROM IT BY LETTING THEM BE THEIR OWN PERSON
so do we think this was a knifecase win or a knifecase loss im conflicted
whenever you ask people why they think mephone4 is canonically a child you'll always get two responses:
a: they believe cobs' words despite the fact that he is an known abuser and is not afraid to dehumanize others. cobs infantilizing mephone4 is essentially cobs putting the blame on mephone4 for all the pain he caused to the guy. believing that cobs is saying the truth when it comes to mephone4's age is quite literally missing the point about how terrible is Cobs and putting aside the fact that he has broken mephone4. infantilization is a very common thing abusers do. Genuinely why are you guys believing an abuser who is as well a war criminal that stole literal baby eggs
b: they put the blame on mephone4's lack of skills/knowledge on certain areas. WHEN THAT LACK OF KNOWLEDGE WAS CAUSED BECAUSE OF COBS' ABUSE.
if theres anything i wanna put on my act 3 bingo card its Knife and Suitcase duet
can we get some advocates for this please let the pookies sing
THEY NAMED THE NEW MANSION AFTER MEPAD??? STOP
true ending
how cobs got his glasses broken
episode 16 doesn't have me crying
it has me thinking about Knifecase kiss scenes and confessions
