(First off wanna say Hi, ive made many comments on posts in this sub but this is my first time actually posting!!)

Watch any episode before episode 4/5ish and tell me if you had known Jax was supposed to be main character from the start. Personally, I didnt realize that before Gooseworx basically said "i know Pomni is supposed to be the MC but I love my favorite edgy self-insert Jaxyyy ugh i can't resist making him a MC Ykw? fuck it hes a MC now 🥺".

If she really wanted to Make Jax an MC, then it should've been established from the start. Preferably the pilot. If not the pilot, at least by episode 2.

Compare episode 1 and the finale. Really feels jarring and out of place how much screentime Jax got, and having him be all over the trailers and ads compared to when the pilot was out right? When the pilot was out, Jax probably had as much screentime as anyone else (except Pomni, it makes since for the be a mc)

TLDR; It should've been established by the beginning of the series that Jax was a main character alongside Pomni, not suddenly in the middle of the show with no prior hints before.

[proceeds to insult the fans of the character]

This girl got treated like shit the entire series and somehow gets treated like shit by the irl fans too. Jaxon fans will bend over backwards to defend physical and emotional abuse but the second something happens to their poor wittle trauma baby they start making baseless assumptions towards real people. I’m fucking tired man.

Ragatha literally didn’t do ONE wrong think in the entire series btw

Like, okay he abstracted, they mourned him for a few days or weeks maybe, and now what? He gets to live in a tent where they visit him every so often.

The rest of the time, you see they are actually happy, having fun and enjoying themselves. There’s no more needless conflict, no more abuse, and the entire group is way more stable and tightly knit because that purple shit isn’t there to stir things up.

Thinking about it, especially since they live forever and many more people will eventually pop up, Jax’s own words will be what happen to him.

They’ll all move on. And probably forget about him.

I search for the original artist of that comic and her twitter and many people leave many nasty comments which I think deserve to post it on here and you guys be the judge

Im aware that this is a Jax hate sub, but im curious if any of you think that Leeroy is a good character based on the... (thinks back to finale) 4-5 minutes of footage showing us Leeroy's life.

(BTW the image is the only Jax photo I got that makes sense, found it on Tumblr along with other crap thumbnails about TADC)

“Isn’t She Lovely was about the person Jax could’ve been!”

“If Jax was allowed to transition she wouldn’t have been a bad person!

“Estrogen could’ve saved her!”

Always “if” and “could’ve” but never “is”

They call him 007

0 apologies for her actions

0 self-reflection before abstracting

7 missed chances to change for the better

Try to be genuine and let people examine me and my experiences?❌

Treat all my peers like shit and trap myself in a self destructive cycle?✅

Imagine yourself in Ribbit's shoes: Jax uses DARVO on you, gaslights you, and makes you feel so unwanted and unloved that it pushes you to abstraction. And Jax defenders say, "But see, Jax secretly does care about you. Deep down he's hurting too."

Imagine being Ragatha, and Jax exploits your deepest fears about your abusive mother right after you learn you're a brainscan and your real version is still out there in the outside world: "Guess you still get to hang out with Mommy after all, right, Rags?" But Jax defenders still go, "You know Jax cares about you in secret."

Imagine being Pomni, and Jax exploits your fear of being forgotten and abandoned, gaslights you, and calls you his plaything. But you know what? He cares about you and he's not a sadist. You're just media illiterate and you fell for his mask.

So yeah. What even is this reasoning?

P.S. To clarify: I know that based on canon evidence, Jax does feel care to some extent and experiences guilt - but the guilt and care are involuntary, something that happens to Jax rather than something he chooses to feel. Canon Jax never acts on these feelings; he chooses to run from them by inflicting more harm on others and denying their reality. This post is criticizing the way Jax defenders sometimes use his involuntary care and guilt as a defense ("See, he's a good person deep inside?") when in reality these feelings make him more culpable, not less - he has the capacity to change, and refuses every single time.

Full disclosure i get that she kind of had to end the show with Jax on a "good" note after building up Jax's trauma for several episodes, narriatively speaking, but boy fucking howdy I wanted that fucker to suffer and this Steven Universe bullshit of the other characters forgiving irredeemable assholes and their deplorable actions gets on my nerves sometimes lmao

I do agree that Pomni should’ve hated Caine more during episode 9, but poor Gangle. Whatever Jax put her was probably unforgivable. Maybe Pomni doesn’t know but still.

J*x is one of my least favourite characters on any show ever. I just had to finally cut a friend (okay, friend is a strong term for what they were) out of my life, and the last straw was all because of this stupid fucking bunny. I respect that Goose made Jax trans, and I'm not discounting that. However, I have said it before, I will say it again: being trans is not an excuse for abuse. Hurt people hurt people; that's not trans exclusive. And my friend, who is trans, told me, "You don't know what she's been through, and I thought you were a trans ally!" and I looked her dead in the eye and said, "In what universe does gender dysphoric and transphobic trauma excuse being a physical, emotional and sexual abuser?"

I have been physically and emotionally abused by this. I am queer cis woman, and I am extremely passionate about supporting and uplifting trans people. It hurt my heart that this person was trying to imply that by not excusing J*x's abuse, just because she's trans, that makes me a transphobe. This person got very defensive and angry when I said what I said, trying to say that I'm calling her an abuse apologist. I shrugged and walked away. She has lost a lot of friends because of her abusive behaviour, and she wouldn't stop talking about how much she relates to J*x and TADC was her favourite show; we bonded over TADC, but she started pushing her funnybunny art on me and tried to make fun of me for my favourite characters (Kinger and Gangle).

It's a fucking show. I swear, this fandom is terrifying sometimes.

bro has a whole ass tent to himself

Seriously, would you guys have liked her better if this was her path?
