Of All The Weird Takes - Blog Posts

Wait, people say WHAT now? Did we read the same book? There are so many legitimate reasons to dislike Jin Guangyao - trust me, my best friend has listed all of them to me as if I didn't know myself - that there is no need to make up new ones.

Look. I don't think anyone is (unironically) saying that man hasn't done anything wrong. But this is the kind of stuff that I'd respond to with, 'Whatever you say, Sect Leader Yao', because no-one with more sense than him could have come up with that tripe.

It's fascinating. Apparently people completely fall for the unreliable narrator - even though Wei Wuxian says that the stuff happening to Jin Guangyao is the same mob mentality that got him killed and that they're trying to pin everything that ever went wrong in all of history on him, no matter if it's true or not.

"actually jgy harassed mxy and then framed mxy" is fucking wild bc consider:

wwx got the account "mxy harassed jgy" from mxy's own writings. if things were actually the other way around and mxy got framed then don't you think that mxy's writings would have mentioned that. like mxy's diary entries were all about how everyone persecuted him and how his life was miserable, so if mxy actually were framed don't you think his This Is Why I'm Making An Evil Spirit Kill Everyone essay would have brought it up lol

even if mxy didn't harass jgy, then....that still doesn't imply that jgy harassed mxy?????

like im sure that with enough Free Invention you could construct a full explanation of events that has jgy harass mxy and also doesnt directly contradict anything directly stated by the novel. but you still need quite some insane leaps of logic to even get there lmao
