@CarmonaSir@blackbestboy It could simply be a disagreement, but I wasn't discussing whether Tinn should forgive Phob, stay with him, how he feels, or whether they should end happily. For me, Phob's actions, intentions, means, and goals have to be seen within something much bigger than their relationship
@nnnhusa Sadly. I believe many people don't understand what they're defending, and the connections aren't obvious to them. That's why I prefer challenging ideas in hopes of making people think. But I’m not the "be nice" type, bc people who support this shit aren't exactly kind either.
@nnnhusa omg yes probably. the series has multiple socially conscious characters and offers a critical perspective on its historical context, but apparently respecting thai perspectives means ignoring the voices of everyone but a passive, conformist monarch
@CarmonaSir@blackbestboy I think it’s deeply uncomfortable for some people to put Tin's pain aside, but for others, it's absurd to put his pain at the center. I mean, once again, are we really centering the pain of someone who has spent his whole life surrounded by privilege and security?
@CarmonaSir@blackbestboy I understand Tin's heartbreak, but it's hard to prioritize it when we see someone like Phob shattered too, yet still choosing something greater than himself.
@wizcrizzz yess! tin feeling this way is completely consistent with his character and his circumstances. i just hope he gets a good character arc, because he is genuinely complex.
@blackbestboy and the worst part? they're basically the reason Phob needs financial support in the first place. They contribute to an entire population's misery, only to feel good about themselves for helping like ten or twelve people
Paying for Phob's education and treating him and his family well is the BARE MINIMUM. It's crumbs. Education and decent treatment should be rights, not privileges dependent on an aristocrat taking a liking to you.
Man I'm fucking sick of the royals (not Tin) playing the victim & acting like Phob should give up his rights for them. Paid for his education? How about you pay for the head injuries or the therapy he needs or his relationship you ruined 🙄 YES YOU OPRESSED HIM!
