Just Watched Nimona. What A Voidpunk Movie. Literally Any Dehumanized Group Could See It As An Allegory

Just watched Nimona. What a voidpunk movie. Literally any dehumanized group could see it as an allegory for them. My first thought was it being a trans allegory with how much Nimona disregards others calling her a girl. But it's more than that too. Is it a trans allegory? Absolutely. But it's an allegory for all other dehumanized groups too. This quote comes to mind: "Once everyone sees you as a villain, that’s what you are. They only see you one way, no matter how hard you try."

But here's the best part: the moral of the story wasn't "oh, eventually people will learn to accept you as kinda normal too". No. It wasn't "weird people can change too! You can be normal too!" No. It was "society wasn't built for you and that's a problem. Be yourself because 'normal' is what's wrong with society. And people should see you and love you for who you are whether or not you fit society's expectations for 'humans'". (But what we call humans, the movie called "heroes".) Seriously you can't get more voidpunk than that. I could go on about this, but just go watch the movie.

"They grow up believing that they can be a hero if they drive a sword into the heart of anything different. And I’m the monster?"

"We are villains. Embrace it."

"What if you held it in? If you didn’t shape-shift?" ... "I wouldn’t die die. I just sure wouldn’t be living."

"Are we going to live in the next day Or Not " 🥺💔

Verified by Butterfly effect project line 355 in spreadsheet🇵🇸🚨here

Yes this is the only thing that all of our family thought about it. Everyday we ask ourselves if we going to live anymore or not . Everyday in this cruel war we imagine one of us dead and feeling so sad about what will happen next day.

Now after the war all the building are destroyed here and there is no life around us please we need to evacuate 🙏🥺

Please help my kids and my family to evacuate from here. Gaza now is not for human being living we need you support to stand with 18 members of the family to travel to another place that could find some peace and start new life without wars. We live in many wars and we are so tired.

Please share for more people you know can help me and my family.

noises I CAN control?: Yes, 100% yes

when you’re overwhelmed in public so you put on your headphones and play music that is straight up screaming in your ears to the point where lyrics are barely able to be made out
