In short, Robin has ever reason to follow these new policies and few, if any, to ditch them. IF Robin ditches Becky as soon as she’s elected, and IF she goes back to the old party line, surely Robin is bright enough to see that in four years time she will be dropped for good. At the same time, I doubt she actually knows a lot about what these ideas entail, but her campaign manager does. And what Robin wants more than anything is to be re-elected, which is why she wants Becky to continue tweeting her ideas, because these are clearly popular with the constituency. She actually likes Leslie, and she had no qualmes about appointing an openly gay woman to be her campaign manager. She’s not going to rock the boat that’s delivered the golden egg, which makes her complicit, sure, but I don’t feel it reflects her personal opinions. Okay, yes she voted for anti-LGBTQ+ legislation but my take on it is that she was simply voting along party lines, which is exactly what I would expect her to do.
It seems to me that a lot of people lately have been claiming that as soon as Robin gets elected she will a) drop Becky and b) screw over the LGBTQ+ community (again.) However, I feel that isn’t a given, in fact far from it. I would love to see a story where Roz is forced to face her own hypocrisy, and learns from the experience and becomes a better person, but she’s had a few chances and walked away from them each time. While I never had the misfortune to know anyone as bad as Roz in college, I did go to an extremely liberal school in Indiana, and I learned that hypocrisy happens on all sides.
Facade video game ooooh yeah free#
I could be wrong on this, so feel free to post a links to prove me wrong. I can’t remember a strip where she stood up for someone who was downtrodden, she always seems to be attacking people who don’t share her views. I’m not saying that she’s putting on an act, she thinks that she believes in her agenda, but her actions show that she’s really just a bully who uses her ideology as an excuse. Her actions in this strip make it fairly clear that her beliefs are a facade, and that facade is begging to crack. She pays lip-service to caring about causes, but doesn’t care who she hurts to get there. I have the feeling that if Robin had become a far left liberal, Roz would end up joining the Westboro Baptist Church. If you’ve been reading, she’s never done anything constructive to help people, only to hurt her sister. Roz defines herself in opposition to her sister. In extreme case one that drives the audience away. It’s a character who doesn’t get accepted as the author intended. The whole point of a Scrappy is that it’s a failure of a character. Mostly though, it’s a good thing there aren’t any real Scrappies. They both are hard characters to get across I suspect since their surface presentation (goofy Becky and asshole Carla) is mostly a facade that covers all their real emotions.
And honestly I think the Scrappy view of both is a misreading of the characters.
I think they’re more just polarizing than actual Scrappies. Even if they’re ‘right’, they’re not supposed to be liked.īecky was seen by some that way – though she always had a stalwart contingent of defenders who really liked her. Their role is mostly as foils to the main characters. Maybe Roz and Malaya? I’m not sure how much we’re actually supposed to like them. As villains generally need to be overused. Yeah, villains can be Scrappies, but they have to be disliked as villains – you can hate them as people, but if most don’t enjoy them as antagonists, they can hit Scrappy status.
