-invader zim-2
CAN I JUST SAY THAT i fucking hate how like. while it was planned that invader zim was gonna have two protagonists- zim and dib- its always dib that gets more⌠development?
like. i love the show dont get me wrong. but it really irks me (no pun intended) that the crew stresses that zin and dib are equals, and yet dib is the one that actually has character development and nuance put into his actions. hes changed from the show and his relationship with his family have gotten better
with zim? its the OPPOSITE
hes always written off by crew members as âoh, zim? yeah he wont ever change.â the Main Character is stagnant. while the comics make dibâs life better, they make zimâs worse. 777, zimâs only friend, is now only helping him because he has his kids hostage. you used to be able to make the case that red was a little sympathetic towards zim, now him and purple are interchangeable assholes to the point where they SWITCH COLORS in issue 4. zim himself is more 2d and has more of a Cartoon Badguy role to dibâs Plucky Young Hero and it really doesnt feel like theyre on equal ground anymore. it just feels like dib is the new protagonist, and the traditional Cartoon Good Guy, and zim is just a joke without the CORE TENANT OF HIS CHARACTER, that being that hes not stupid, just misguided.
and it really feels like the comics treat him like hes stupid and doesnt have a friend in the world or anyone that likes him even a LITTLE because who would ever like ZIM amirite?
*passionately flips a table*
YES.
This is honestly my main issue with many Zim redemption or resistance arcsâlike, to the point where I actively avoid them most of the time. Too many times the text approaches Zim in a way that the only way for him to improve or be good is by eliminating everything that makes Zim Zim. No ambition, no anger, no hurt, no flaws except the cute ones, no mistakes except the acceptable ones. In the end, what weâre too often left with is a Zim with none of his grand verbosity, nothing of the driven capable soldier we know Zim is. An entire lifetime just flips the odometer to Good Nice Boy Zim or Acceptably Hurt Zim or Zim Is Only Allowed to Be Angry At the Right People Zim. Everything else is gone because everything else is Bad.
Zim can only be Zim if itâs cute and if itâs clean.
And the way Zim needing to improve by eliminating all of his culture and species and heritage to be replaced by human culture is⌠well, itâs got unfortunate implications, to say the least.
It so often comes with that bitter aftertaste of a race being Always Chaotic Evil. âYouâre not bad⌠but your people, culture, and everything about you and everything that formed you is bad so it needs replacing by our good and normal superior culture.â (At which point I wonder if we watched the same show because real talk, IZâs weâll-need-to-confiscate-your-retinas Earth ainât that much better.) Oh, except the cool useful alien tech and biology stuff, he can keep that maybe, IF he drops all the culture. Maybe keep a way how to say a neat phrase in Irken.
It robs Irk itself of any possible nuance or richness or complexity it might have because all itâs allowed to be in a scenario like this is a generic evil empire thatâs evil because reasons. We donât know how or why or when or how Irk ended up this way, or what Irkens besides Zim think of the system because they donât matter. They canât matter if theyâre just an obstacle for Zim to overcome. (It also eliminates any possible awkwardness when Zim forms a resistance movement and starts killing other Irkens.) I understand the appeal of PAK mind control and brainwashing and cult mentalities and recovering from a bad mindset your culture has, but that doesnât automatically mean every single thing about the place you came from needs to be flushed down the drain.
And like, I know none of thatâs the intent, but thatâs how problematic tropes work; theyâre subconscious.
Doing this also tends to give Zim a total free pass for any recovery that does happen since now nothing he does is ever Zimâs fault. Itâs only the evil Empire race and once everything about that is gone, Zim can be good. Itâs not like he actually has to examine his own faults or deeds or confront⌠basically anything unsavory about himself at all. And Iâm just not cool with that. I know fanwork is fanwork, we all come here for comfort and we all have our own ways of finding it while dealing with our own junk, but Iâm sorry I donât find anything comforting about saying that the only way to overcome your conformist culture is⌠conforming to another culture.
Zim having character development doesnât have to mean that Zim stops being Irken in all but name and aestetics. Let Zim improve, let Zim be better, let Zim cry or be cute sometimes but for Irkâs sake let Zim still be Zim.
(i accidentally skipped the main part of the post but it really just boiled down to âthis is why i ignore the comics except worldbuild stuff I use for partsâ and is pretty much the path i saw the comics headed toward way back in 2018. i accepted them as dumb jokey-joke comics that arenât going to give me much but are still cute)
youre not stepping on any toes IN FACT you are saying what i was too pussy to say in the original post
while im not a practicing muslim im still ethnically middle-eastern and while i didnt grow up during that time (i was alive but i was baby) i completely get what youre saying with the unfortunate implications
to me it reads as super colonizer-y to act like the only way a character can be redeemed is to strip him of his culture
and im gonna say it, im gonna out myself to make a point on my fucking Invader Zim Meta Post but.
i have ASPD.
literally i am a diagnosed sociopath. yay for me! anyway. aspd w/ npd (and bpd) traits i am LIVING im THRIVING im FINE its FINE
ANYWAY i mention this because.
this trend. of erasing zimâs zim-ness. reminds me of shit that happened to me, or shit ive seen in passing.
thereâs always this attitude of being proud of who you are and even the more stigmatized mental illnesses are shown love somewhere on tumblr with positivity blogs and positivity posts and suchâŚ. but if you have npd or aspd theres always this underlying asterisk of not you, though.
like, weâre expected to only be good and valuable if we change EVERYTHING about ourselves and be One Of The Good Ones and basically never never show symptoms never ever
are there some aspects of aspd and the personality disorder Traits Hodgepodge i have that are absolutely rancid? yes. there are, obviously. having that shit is not fun at all and ive hurt myself and others because of it.
but the same is true for every single mental illness ever and theyâre allowed to have positivity, theyâre allowed to identify with their neurodivergence and be proud to be themselves!
but i canât??
iâm treated as someone beyond help and someone who would only want help to avoid jail (actual thing a psychology! professor!! said about ppl with aspd) and if i dare say that i actually am proud of who i am, not despite of The Disorder but because of that then boy do i have a fucking storm coming my way
people just cant really reconcile that you can be a good person while still having traits of those disorders. they really, really canât. and it seeps into fandom. i wonder whatâll happen to me now that i straight up said i have aspd. will i get hate? will people unfollow me? will nothing happen at all? fuck if i know!
anyway.
i went on and on about my own experiences because ive had people try to âfixâ me like it was some great service and beat me into this perfect little mold of What A Good Person Should Be and i uh, really dont like seeing this in fandom at all. a lot of popular creators do it. they donât think they do it but they do it. (not you patch ily). if they sit there patting themselves on the back and thinking they totally dont do it, they do it 100% guaranteed
zim is only valid if hes soft and pitiable and uwu all the time and only then is he allowed to be sympathized with. barring that, heâs evil for evilâs sake and has absolutely no internal motivations or complexities around it
i didnt mean to turn this to âyou people are ableist towards cluster Bsâ but-
haha no fuck you thats exactly what im saying.
anyway zim can be a good person and be egotistical and he can be caring and nurturing while not having empathy and he can be defective and not be the Only Good One In All Of Irken Society because shit is more nuanced than that and the idea that there is only ONE dissenter in a society with billions in it is honestly fucking laughable
