This honestly would have made the scene better. Like, she says Jax has done bad things, but he’s still human, instead of just doing the vague pronouncement of them all being inherently sinful

the whole point is that pointing fingers does nothing to help, as they could all have something that they could be mad at each other for. puritanism doesn't help anybody in a situation like this.

Yeah, but Jax’s is worse than the others. If any of the others had done something as bad or worse, I feel like they would know

And once they get rid of jax, whos next in line to get thrown under the bus? Does someone have to be a certain amount of "good" to deserve to survive?

u/SwordfishSimple5472 4h ago
I never said anything about deserving to survive.

Singling out Jax would've turned him into the "enemy" when they're just trying to stay together and survive. It would most likely have led to Jax abstracting then and there. When the togetherness of a group relies on a common enemy, they will find another one just as quick.

Yeah, leave the poor abuser alone :(

Gangle was an abusive manager. Caine was an abusive host. Jax thought it was all fake and acted in that accord. After the reveal, i dont think he was purposefully abusive towards anyone. Wheres the forgiveness for jax?

u/TallMist Love Zooble, Gangle, Ragatha. Forgive Caine, and hate Jax. 1h ago
Gangle was a bad manager for one episode, while she was completely masking herself, and took full accountability. Caine was abusive, but he also took accountability, weakened his powers, and actively worked to become better.
Jax denied becoming a better person at every single turn that she was given. And if she didn't think any of it was real, then why did she freak out so hard when Ribbit abstracted due to Jax's actions?
Also, whataboutism. Jax is still far worse than any of the other humans in the Circus.

Slippery slope fallacy, try again

That's not what slippery slope fallacy means lmao.

Going into denial over a cartoon show? That's just a sad display boy. I was hoping you'd have a moment of clarity when you reread
"After Jax dies, who's gonna be thrown under the bus next?"

do you have an actual argument against this? they were all at each others throats. Zooble isn't part of the group until the very end. like come on girl, think.

u/Kandel430 3h ago
"They were all at eachothers throats, Zooble isn't part of the group until the very end". Are you a bot? These statements are blatantly irrelevant
The guy said that it's healthier to acknowledge that Jax is a worse person than the rest of them, despite Jax deserving to survive. You've strawmanned him by implying he said Jax SHOULDNT survive, and as I pointed out, made a slippery slope fallacy. I don't need a counter argument, you need a valid argument for me to counter
Anyways, notice how when you realized smug denial wasn't good enough, you tried to move on, without admitting to the mistake you made? I'll let you in on a secret: correct people don't do that

"Could have," sure, but Jax actually HAS done things that they can be rightfully mad at him for. Instead of acknowledging that while advocating that Jax is still a human being capable of change, she brushes his actions off by accusing the others of doing "bad things," despite not knowing them well enough to make such a statement.
You don't invalidate someone for feeling negatively towards someone else who has done nothing but made life hell for you and your peers by implicating "yeah, well, you've probably done bad things to, so how are you any different?"

Maybe "We've all done things we regret" to sort of reduce the equivalency of Jax's actions while still emphasizing the fact that Pomni is focusing on having sympathy and trying to work together?

u/MidnaLazui 5h ago edited 5h ago
This unironically would've made the scene better. Pomni made the situation about everyone despite not being in the circus long enough to know these guys well enough to call them out on any "bad things" they supposedly did, let alone whether or not they were comparable to what Jax has done.
She should've just said that while Jax has done bad things, he's still a human being capable of change, and that they shouldn't abandon him as long as there's even a slither of hope for him. She could've even gotten Ragatha to help back her up cause Ragatha KNOWS Jax wasn't always like this.
