some of you should not speak on dennis until you've rewatched sunny in full instead of just the macden-centric eps.
#literally not even a matter of like. different interpretations it's just some of y'all forget literal canon events that disprove shit
#i get schooled by people abt den too i have my weaknesses w writing him
#but like oh my god
#some of y'all would be better off if you looked at him outside of a macden context
#he's not evil incarnate
#he's fucked up and he does awful shit
#but that is a little boy wearing an adult face
#to just make him evil for no reason completely removes any interesting bits of him.
#one of the keys to sunny's writing is that
#rcg always makes sure that motivation is understandable *in that character's eyes*
#dennis has a very specific purpose for everything he does
#he isn't just cruel for no fucking reason
#he's 'brutally honest' because he thinks its his duty to break the news
#he's absolutely entitled and arrogant and misogynistic
#but he doesn't set out to be Mean just for the sake of it
#den thinks he is doing good. he thinks he's in the right. its not him it's everyone else.
#he's doing you a favour by saying you're ugly (and propping up his own decimated self esteem)
#that being said he's also not innocent pookie either
#but i would say its like. in a lot of ways he IS oblivious to the reality of what hes saying/doing
#part of that is his privilege as a white man who grew up being supported by and continues to be supported by his parent's wealth
#but the gang enables the shit he does just as frank financially enables him
#they are so insular it's like impossible to break out of the gang and interact with normal people
#because if they don't get it then dennis is going straight back to the gang to feel validated and to hell w everyone else
#on some level he knows shit is unacceptable but he's never learned Why and never will because theres no reason to
#like when mac is completely fucking shocked by den talking abt the implication dennis CANNOT let that go unchecked
#he needs mac to understand him because he's realizing that it's *actually* fucked up. bc even mac thinks so.
#and when dee calls what happened with klinsky Rape everything IMMEDIATELY crumbles for him
#dennis is introspective but he will justify shit and compartmentalize until his friends challenge it
#he looks to media; tv and movies where the protagonist gets away with shit because its schlock fiction
#and dennis DOES see himself as a protagonist. it's all justifiable bc he's the good guy.
