This Is Me Aya.. ‏🇵🇸

Amen! 🙏

People who say "Caitlyn did the most for the underground by dismantling shimmer and fighting chembarons" makes me laugh so much for two reasons

1. The show establishes multiple times that children work for the chembarons, so they most definitely got caught in the grey. But the show also establishes, through characters like Heenot, that there aren't exactly a lot of job opportunities in Zaun that don't involve the chembarons as they've monopolised most of Zaun's industries. Its something that Caitlyn acknowledges herself when having her leg stitched up by her dad ("choosing between a kingpin and a gov that doesnt give a shit") So I don't see how gassing and then imprisoning these people for life is "helping". She also straight up cocks her gun at unarmed, sickly workers so, no, she really dngaf ab helping

2. I don't blame people for forgetting this one because the show forgets it too, but shimmer is the only form of medicine (as far as we know) that exists in Zaun. Other than Singed, the show doesn't portray the undercity as having any doctors. Every time a character in Zaun is hurt fatally, they use shimmer to heal them. Caitlyn herself knows this, as she gets shimmer for Vi in S1. Ironically, much like in real life, the criminalisation of shimmer would've most likely harmed the underground more than the drug trade itself. Especially after, oh, i don't know, GASSING A CITY WITH A GAS THAT HAS DISABALED PEOPLE PRIOR.

In conclusion, kukluxkirraman (not u switch!Caitie ily) isn't shit and jinx should've hit the towers again

And don't forget the "they have a right to defends themselves!" and the obvious "If you support them you're against [insert other group of people who they are only using as a shield]"

not to be, like, politiquelle in my discussion of the response to famously non-political show Netflix Arcane™

but it's so genuinely unsettling to see people who would probably characterise themselves as Nice Liberals with the Right Liberal Opinions turn around in the year of our lord 2024-2025 and without a single moment's hesitation, employ rhetoric like

criminals are not civilians, and if you commit a crime, the police can take away whatever rights they want

drone gas strikes save lives, the ONLY alternative to drone gas strikes is boots-on-the-ground military action, there's NO OTHER WAY

(and we know there's no other way because the people who wanted to do the strikes said so, please don't question this false dichotomy)

gas is a precision weapon. we can program gas to only hit terrorists and criminals, actually

and if any children or factory workers or non-violent offenders or bartenders are harmed, well, then they should have thought of that before being terrorists and criminals

(remember, this is the ONLY WAY. don't think about the fact that attacks are seemingly happening out of a desire for independence and that every councillor still alive already voted for independence, this is THE ONLY WAY)

how do we know everyone in that building we hit was a terrorist and a criminal? well, intelligence reports allowed us to designate that building a terrorist and criminal hideout. so, ipso facto, everyone in it must have been a terrorist and a criminal. QED.

no civilians were harmed in the making of this precision attack :)

those who say civilians were harmed as a result of this precision attack are making up the numbers :)

this is the ONLY WAY :)

please do not talk about alternative solutions. there is no other way. look at the rainbow flag sticker on this gun!

truly, this is the most moral army in the world
