Exactly
not only does that post not say jonah Isn’t a tory or a capitalist but also are we honestly pretending that people call him one because of any actual things he did and not because of the fanon bill cipher aesthetics. honestly.
randomly got annoyed again today at fandom portrayals of elias as a luddite. you think the world's most powerful avatar of beholding would be.... behind the times? ignorant to the progress of technology? even if you choose to ignore the fact that the digital age revolutionized beholding as a dread power (going from something tied much more closely to the hunt to something so much more exestential and all-consuming... the surveilance state! online surveilance! wiretapping! data gathering! predatory privacy policies! the zoom boom! etc!!!) and that the evolution of recording technology is how the institute was able to function as efficiently as it did to tell us its story... why would it ever make sense to you that the world's most powerful beholding avatar would remain wilfully ignorant of... anything. let alone wilfully ignorant of how the vast majority of the world functions and communicates. plus his greatest fear is death!! you think he isn't up to date on all the most prominent medical advances? that's just a willful misreading of the text.
It's a unique type of frustration when you agree that a character is deeply flawed but other people keep missing what's actually wrong with them and assigning them new flaws that they don't even have it's like free my man he did none of that. He did a bunch of other shit tho.

Wow yeah so Hannibal has consumed my entire life. It has actually changed my brain chemistry so drastically I hardly even know who I am anymore without it. SO NATURALLY. I had to crawl out of my cave and draw something to honor the men who have plagued my waking and dreaming world for the last two months. Hope you enjoy!
This too shall pass but like holy fuck
canaries should stay above ground.
was going to make a joke about how jon in theory is a leftist and objectively believes in "power to the people" and all that but fundamentally he simply finds people at large to be dumb and annoying and every time someone disagrees with his opinion in a way that ticks him off he briefly becomes 100% supportive of complete authoritarianism, ideally with himself as the dictator of the known universe, and then I remembered that wouldn't actually be a joke because he did canonically do exactly that.
the way people are inclined to believe jonah magnus who doesn’t believe in fate/bloodlines and who longed to become an immaterial extension of a fear ‘deity’ is more likely to be tory-aligned than og!elias who was raised to believe he is better and more deserving simply because he is a bouchard is honestly. very strange
i am staring at him with all my eyes <3
