Quentin The White Protagonist? I'm Sorry What?! Huh

Quentin the white protagonist? I'm sorry what?! Huh

Okay the more I think about the writers excuse for killing Quentin off, the more enraged I get! Yes for all the reasons we've said before the fact that he's a mentally ill depressed person that he's actually the bisexual in this character that takes away from the whole white male protagonist stereotype and all that. But the thing that kills me the most isn't even in all those transgressions against our Darling by King!! It's the fact that they have never given him the respect of the white protagonist hero in the story that almost nobody else gets they've never given Quinton that. Every story of the white male protagonist has that specific role get something Quinton has been lacking in the story and from its characters since pretty much episode 1 season 1. A voice about his own choices and not being overwritten by other characters when he show something voice something or tell something that doesn't fit in their perspective of what he is or isn't.

The white male protagonist in the stories don't have to fight but a little moves that fight to other characters and the writers themselves trying 2 override or we write his choices or words in regards to himself. But Quinton on the other hand not only fights but loses constantly not only his voice but respect for his actions and his Regard in who he is not to the storyline which would be part of the story and the characters and writers right but as a person himself. From episode 1 when they have Alice disregard his triggers and worries about doing the ritual to just the season when they disregard his clearly declining mental state and suicidal actions and his sexuality. nevermind that Quentin just went through 50 years basically being married to Elliott no he's not into dudes because Elliott doesn't think he is. he's not suicidal because Penny says he's not at the end. Alice isn't a trigger for him because Margo told him he needs Alice isn't a trigger for him because Margo told him he needs to Alice isn't a trigger for him because Margo told him he needs to pussy up to do this thing that they don't even have to do together. Quentin himself pushes away pup poppy decides she's going to sleep with him to get rid of his panic attack which is rightly earned from him and his further trying to take away his voice and doesn't understand what she's doing when they bang yet pure bulshit that is basically an assault on a traumatized person by the person that traumatize them know that is never called out. Yet it if it had happened to any other character though there would have been outraged in an entire storyline just by that. it's honestly a lot more examples throughout all the seasons and pretty much every episode Q is in somebody disregards something about him that doesn't fit into the white male protagonist role they're trying to shove him into. And that in and of itself proves but he doesn't fit into it because of nothing else that's true in all of the stories that center around the white male protagonist is that they get autonomy over there own characteristics.

Excuse any mistakes I writing this on my crappy phone at work and the talk to text feature hates me!

…Somehow a sad montage of everyone mourning a character who just sacrificed himself “for the greater good” like all of them really really cared about him all along…

…is really fucking undercut by the fact that this season, barely any of the characters had half a shit to give about him. Last season, during the quest, they had grown closer, they had talked and developed bonds, but this season, everyone was so up their own asses with their own quests, Julia had a bare minimum of interaction with Q, the only one who really did was Alice and it was just for a really fucking awkward relationship rekindling that was unnecessary on both ends because they both could have used a friend more than a lover.

Like. Fuck you. Don’t just make characters care about each other when one of them dies. Sure, Penny is right, it’s fucking more than Penny ever got, but this is just over the top ridiculous considering how little the characters were shown to care about him this season.

JUST LET ME BE.

The best thing about modern technology is exposing the way cops fuck over black people to white people. Literally no black person is surprised that they would do this to a black mother grieving over her child.

Tbh when Quentin wanted to start over with Alice, I thought he meant as friends. That would have been awesome actually. Alice needs FRIENDS right now, not a boyfriend

shocking!!!!! had no idea!!!
