I think a lot of people viewing Clark as a purely evil character genuinely have some racism they need to break down. Clark didn't hit his wife and I think that's a shit theory that has almost nothing to back it up. Was he a dick to her absolutely but there isn't entirely proof to say that's complicated and fully true. From a writing perspective it would be stupid to have the climax of that relationship be put into the scene where he says he broke a plate and drunkenly yelled at her. Yes that's absolutely wrong of him to do but genuinely have you genuinely never been so stressed and had it all spill out onto someone who doesn't deserve it? Being bipolar I've had that happen a billion times and I've hurt so many people. I am disgusted by my actions constantly and I've worked hard to apologize and resolve as many of those as I could. Yet, there's always that one that you can't fix. That's what Clark's ex wife is he fucked up hard and that doesn't make him evil. He obviously feels horrible about it and wants to work over it or he wouldn't be in therapy. He's trying to be better but his own hubris won't let him. That along with the stress of his failing company and alcoholism lead him to literally snapping aka finding the backrooms. I feel that backrooms for him is an allegory for phycosis or just deep mental problems of the sort. He didn't consciously understand that bringing in Kat and bobby would hurt them. Yeah it was kinda selfish of him to bring them in but to be honest to Clark he just wanted help exploring. He didn't want them to get hurt. Same with Mary. He didn't ask her to come to the backrooms she went in to try and help him. Though at this point he was beyond help. He didn't want to hurt Mary he wanted to make her understand what the backrooms meant to him. He was sick and getting sicker and if you haven't been that deep in your own illness before the pull to just give up and be sick is deafening. You don't want to go through the effort of fixing yourself and changing and Clark was well past that part. He did shitty things but at the same time he was just a sick man and that's why he means so much to me. I've been him over and over again. He's an amazing layered complex character. Is he a good person? Absolutely not and I'm not going to defend his actions but he is an amazing character. He had potential to be a good person but his environment and his own trauma and actions kept him from that. He's quite literally his worst nightmare that's why Capt Clark eats him because he's become what he was fighting so hard not to be. In the end he couldn't get better. In the end he let himself give up. He literally kills himself. Mary gets out but she's scared from the experience and still mentally trapped in the same place she worked to get out of. Its about the cycles of trauma and mental illness. Now hop off Clark's dick and stop assuming he's violent because he's black. He never hurt anyone on his own. Capt Clark is the manifestation of his illness.

Edit: Just to clarify I don't think Clark is a good person. Nor am I excusing his actions. He was a bad person. That's literally the point of his character. This is my opinion. I stand by assuming he beat his wife is racist because the amount of white men who have literally killed their wives and got less flak then the fictional black man is absurd. My (white) mother who beat and abused me for over a decade and a half got literally zero flak and I told everyone I could what she was doing. The only difference is his skin color and if you think that's somehow not racist I don't know what to tell you. Sorry that was kinda sharp but I'm still pissed some white dude thought he had the right to speak over me on that.

And yes you are still allowed to have basically any opinion about this movie I'm not in charge of you all I ask is don't be racist if that's too much just block me don't leave a comment

[renantichrist]

Chibi Clarks !!

Here they are separately:

"C" in "Clark" stands for CUTIE btw 👀

[elasticveins]

I think it’s exactly the kind of room he wants to live in!

[dhulfaqar]

Sorry if this has already been posted here before, but I'm thinking about how Clark's still life absolutely maimed him

[pppuri]

Basement Land

[featherglum]

Probably the closest they've been to their canon selves in a long time...

(I didn't research their ages and set them kinda randomly, sorry if that part is way off. Try not to worry about it. Ok.)

[starrcores]

You know what makes me really go "damn" is the fact that even if Clark had stayed with his wife and somehow made the family thing work out, I doubt he'd have been a very good dad. At best he'd have been mildly toxic. Having a family and achieving your goals won't fix your problems or make them disappear into thin air. It wasn't really about his wife, or his inability to fulfill his dreams. He would only ever have been happy if the seed of change was planted in him.

[tabloidgarden]

LINDSEY GRAHAM ?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

fuck around and find out is a nice sentiment, but i feel like it's mostly a group of rich investors, geneticists, and paleontologists who fucked around, and us innocent bystanding theme park tourists who are finding out

WHOA OH

LIVIN ON A PRAYER

[airplanned]

We all agree, right?

AI to write your novel is wrong

A bargain with a demon to write your novel is okay

[derinthescarletpescatarian]

Only if you specify in the contract that the demon can't use chat-GPT

[athenadark]

I've been thinking about this - and why asking the demon is also a bad idea

Tartini was a composer and violin teacher and no one respected him, he was generally broke, and he started having weird dreams in which the devil asked him to teach him violin

despite being catholic tartini agreed - although everything told him this was a bad idea

so he taught the devil violin in his dreams and when he had taught him everything he knew the devil offered him payment, he played an original composition in his dream

Tartini woke up weeping and struggled to write it down

we have a historical version of "couldn't remember the greatest song in the world, this is just its tribute", and the song he wrote down made him "Sonata in G Minor, aka the devil's trill" it's usually played by 2 violinists because it's evil difficult,

now imagine you make a deal with the devil to write your novel, he writes it but only lets you read it in a dream and you have to transcribe it from memory the next day.... 150k of the best prose and plot you've ever seen in your life and you have to remember it

chatgpt is evil, but that's just mean

[themanedwolf]

This brings a whole new element to my understanding of Devil Went Down to Georgia

Not socialist in a “I won’t have to work” type of way but socialist in a “I’ll still be working but I won’t be worried I won’t make the rent” type of way. In a “billions won’t be hoarded by one person” type of way. In a “janitors, fast-food workers, child care workers, preschool teachers, hotel clerks, personal care and home health aides, and grocery store cashiers, will live comfortably” type of way. In a “the sick and elderly will be cared for” type of way. In a “no child should work” type of way.
