      And it's a two way process. I know I'm not the only queer Ender's Game fan who cannot avoid the thought process that I understand Orson Scott Card, and in understanding him, I am the one with the power over my enemy I'm not sure I'm wrong, even though it's his meme

      in terms of how Ender's Game works narratively, it's a lot like (please indulge me here) TLOU2 [OR ANY OTHER WORK THAT IS DESIGNED TO MESS W YOUR PERCEPTIONS THIS IS JUST A RECENT EXAMPLE I LIKE] in that we do not get the full story and we think the protagonist is more justified

      > than he actually is. We are intentionally led to believe he is able to disable his assailants in the bathroom without killing them, and most of us are spoiled that the final battle is real but the intention is to be a twist. That his hands are not clean.

      Ender is taught by a system which, *in the original book but not the fcked up sequels*, is portrayed as evil and completely abusive, that being good at video games makes him the hero It doesn't and reading the novel without author's commentary shows that

      Replying to @TellerGrim

      No, it was actually written before Ender's Game. It's got a little bit of "ENDER IS DEFINITELY STRAIGHT I SWEAR" but mostly it's a similar story to EG, except with a pacifier Ender trying to prevent a three way war

      i want to fight SftD in an abandoned parking-lot even more than Ender's Game because its underlying morality is... weird tradcath shit + "it's good to sacrifice yourself", but it's still more like EG than... whatever the hell happened later

      Hrm,but I don't think it is about how it's good to sacrifice yourself? The piggies literally do not understand that they aren't granting immortality to people because humans aren't plants, and this is so outside their conception of the world that it takes the novel to convey

      Its kind of a long apology for domestic violence.

      ...interesting? I haven't heard this take before. I'm really curious as to your argument for that. Do you mean the plot with the piggies or something else?

          "Marcao is worthy of our understanding and, /therefore, immediately/, our forgiveness" is kind of a fundamental pillar of the book's ethics; there are people whose deaths ought be Spoken as "this person was abusive and we need to repair the damage they did to our community"
