“it’s so weird that chloe was so kind when chad wasn’t” no you don’t get it. chloe WASNT kind. initially, yes, she was polite when her mother was, but chloe proceeded to act just as d1 chad did the whole movie.

she was equally as spoiled by her parents (‘were you really a good person if you got a reward’/her inability to use a mop/her reaction to ella’s appearance), equally as prejudiced against VKs/red (every time she says something like ‘you’re a villain’), and equally as stubborn.

perhaps she wasn’t a cartoonish bully, but the song ‘get your hands dirty’ is literally about chloe unlearning each internal bias she has because of her privilege and learning empathy. she and chad ARE the same guys pLEASE PUT THE PITCHFORKS DOWN HEAR ME OUT HEAR ME O
