Hey guys instead of thinking about Curly’s disability as a punishment what if we instead realized that even if you side with an abusive psychopath in any way you will still get hurt in the end and used? As in like being used as a scapegoat and the being an unreliable caretaker by starving you of communication and the humanity you still deserve to be treated with and being used as a simple pawn to further said psycho’s motives even when you tried your best to see the best in said abuser and a lot of the time put them above yourself.
Hey guys can we acknowledge how Curly was kinda a jerk but that doesn’t warrant constant pain from fourth degree burns and being degraded as a person?
Hey guys the nuance and the idea that you can still be a decent person while fucking up massively
Hey guys Anya told Swansea during that meeting in the cockpit and he didn’t kill Jimmy immediately either
Hey guys when you’re in a position in which you have to keep a group together, running over and killing your best friend will not keep people together and it will cause chaos, and not only that but being told your best friend is a “that word” can be shocking and most people need more than a day to process that information, which Curly only got a day
Hey guys this still doesn’t excuse his enabling over years and years but for the love of fucking god please stop equating him to a literal consent-ignoring, narcissistic pos who will kill others to look good, or still be seen in a good light?
I understand having emotions about such heavy topics but one of the main themes of this game is that people are human, and humans do shit sometimes man, nobody is perfect and unfortunately that sometimes leads to Jimmy’s living past the age of three, and I say this as a person who has dealt with some of these “topics” in multiple senses that people are allowed to be imperfect, mistakes do not make you a pos
Being Jimmy is❤️
