OK but I really love how unhinged Neil comes off in other people's POV cause looking back at the first three novels he was so damn weird
Take what happened in Colombia
Imagine what Andrew was thinking
Holy crap this binder WTF?!?! OK he's sus as hell I've gotta test him, I'm gonna mess with the tags when I refold his clothes but like...I doubt even he's THAT crazy
*Neil barges in and starts shouting in FRENCH*
OK so he IS that crazy (and French?!)
OK I'm gonna spike his drink and get some answers in a minute just gonna leave him with Aaron and Nicky for a sec while I satisfy my Gay panic this runaway has inspired in me with Roland and then I'll just...WTF DID HE JUST PAY A GUY TO KNOCK HIM OUT?!
OK I'm gonna pick up some breakfast and when I get back to the house I can interrogate the....OK ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME THIS DUBIOUS TWINK CRAWLED OUT OF THE BATHROOM WINDOW?!
OK so he's not around let's get back to Palmetto he probably got a ride from one of the upperclassmen
OK he didn't...did he run away? I guess that makes some sens... OK wait he HITCHHIKED?! THE FUCK?!
OK THIS ASSHOLE SPEAKS GERMAN TOO?!
OK he's on the run from the mob...there are a lot of holes in this story but at this point I'm gonna take his word for it that he's isn't a danger to my people cause I don't have the energy to continue to pursue this anymore. This fucking guy is more unhinged than what I was prepared to deal with this weekend.

I love observing fandoms from afar exhibiting the same shipping brain rot that pissed me off two years ago. Big "how many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?!" energy.

I have Covid so I'm doing a Mr. Sunshine rewatch because I can't focus on anything else and after finishing ep 1 it's already making me S C R E A M with how good it is.
Everyone is depicted with such nuance, and knowing that the main characters will actually be the children unwillingly carrying on the legacy of what happens in this episode makes me note things that I didn't the first time around.
They have all, in one way or another, been failed by the unjustness of their country and their environment, and the show explores the various ways of trying to deal with it and to make sense of what's going on around them in light of that, and knowing this makes even the mean-spirited, near-cartoonish anger and villainy of the antagonist actually make sense: "My country failed me, it never did anything for me, so I will tear it apart and sell it piece by piece to forcibly take what it never gave me" actually seems almost like a reasonable reaction in light of all the death, injustice, and general callousness going on. But then on the other hand you have the soldiers who pretty much know that they've been sacrificed and left to die by the leadership, but also know that no matter the unjustness of it all there's nobody else standing between them and the innocent civilians.
Basically I really like this show because it doesn't shy away from the shittiness of the situation and the reasonable anger - the victims of colonization are far from perfect and idealized, their social structure was cruel to large swaths of its population - while also having a core of "fighting for what's right is worthwhile even when it's hopeless because there are innocent people worth defending", and "people don't have to be perfect blameless victims to not deserve oppression/colonization" and I like this a lot.
