You gotta understand that some people never really grow. They never learn their lesson. They never recognise their mistakes, they never acknowledge their faults, they never admit they were in the wrong. You will never receive an apology from them, and you will never see their behaviour change.

if you’re in the notes saying “this is wrong and cruel because everyone is capable of growth” you’re not understanding the post.

yes, everyone is CAPABLE of growth and change. everyone has the RIGHT to growth and change. but no, not everyone will CHOOSE growth and change. some people are not interested in and cannot be made interested in self-improvement or self-reflection. some people will go their entire lives refusing to admit they might be wrong or examine their own behaviors. some people will never, ever accept responsibility for the effects they have on people and the world around them. humans are varied; some are just always gonna be like this.

it is VITAL to understand this if you’re the kind of person who tends to pour energy into helping others, especially if there are already people knowingly hurting you who consistently show absolutely no interest in changing that behavior. you can’t forcibly make them want to change who they are. you aren’t going to find a way to convince them to suddenly care that their behavior is hurting someone.

the motivation to change and grow comes from within. others may inspire us, but WE have to decide we want to be better and work towards that. until they decide that for themselves, nobody else can do it for them. and they might never. people are mortal. we are a finite series of choices. it is entirely possible to make mostly selfish ones.

everyone CAN grow, but not everyone will. not everyone wants to, and nobody can force the desire to grow as a person on someone else.

no like imagine being a legendary voice actor bringing a character to life yourself for like 20 years and they cast some homophobe in his normal speaking voice for the big screen debut nintendo needs to pay charles martinet an apology of like a billion dollars and i am so serious

eirichele

and for people being like “its fine in clips but for a movie his voice would be too grating!!! what is he gonna do wahoo for 2 hours??”

like hello he is a PROFESSIONAL VOICE ACTOR and not just wahoo man!!! he could have easily figured out a more natural voice for mario because this is literally his job!!!!! crispy ratt cant even manage one change of tone please be serious

“his voice would be too grating for a movie!!” is such an awkward criticism to make about Martinet’s Mario voice considering two things

1. Martinet designed his Mario voice especially because he knows the character would interact with children all days so he wanted to make it as pleasant as possible (which was a genius idea at the time considering how until Martinet everyone voiced Mario with a gruff brooklyn italian man impression, which imo is more grating)

2. “too grating for a 2 hours movie!” as if we didn’t spend a lot of time with Mario hearing him doing funny sounds and hearing small parts of actual dialogue from Mario even if it’s nonsense. Whenever Mario speaks actual lines that isn’t gibberish like “Thank you for playing my game!” it is one of the most pleasant experiences ever. Don’t you want a whole movie with THAT?
