Because I just remembered who was the best character in RWBY so far

Hello Hello Everyone, I Wanted To Take Some Time To Quickly Introduce Myself, I Am Thia, I Am A Survivor
Hello hello everyone, I wanted to take some time to quickly introduce myself, I am Thia, I am a survivor of the Chinese femicide and the One-Child Policy, which was done away with in 2016. I was adopted back in January of 2004 and have been in the U.S since then. I do not remember much of my birth place, only that I ended up in the orphanage at 6 weeks, which is a little unique as most are placed immediately into an orphanage or killed. I was lucky enough to simply end up in the orphanage, instead of being abandoned in a box or killed. I have grown up knowing that I survived infanticide, I have always known that I was left behind by my birth family because of the One-Child Policy, and they wanted a son. I had no voice then, and I had no one to speak for me, so I want to be the voice to those who cannot speak.
China has always had terrible history of infanticide committed against Chinese girls. Some 30 million baby girls were abandoned, drowned, poisoned, left in a box, in an alley, the dumpster, they were left for dead. You name it someone had been driven by desperation to do it. And not only were many killed after birth, so many more where aborted when technology caught up and scans could indicate the sex of the baby. Abortion, legal or not, is painful for the baby, it is cruel and should never be an option to throw around as an alternative because someone does not want a child. Abortion is child murder and there is no other way to word it, there is no softening the blow of what abortion truly is, it is murder.

aight y’know what FINE. I’m gonna make the damn post.
since roe got overturned y’all motherfuckers have done nothing but screech about “WELL WHAT IF YOU WERE RAPED WHAT THEN” & other equally shitty scenarios.
I was raped, and I got an abortion. I am part of that 1% of cases y’all love to use to prop up your bullshit arguments.
I did it without anesthesia. I drove myself home. I was numb for probably another two years after. when it finally did hit me, I was the most suicidal I had ever been and I stayed that way until probably last year. all total it’s been eight years since it happened.
the clinic I went to didn’t offer me help. they didn’t give me options. they didn’t have a post-op checkup. no one gave a shit. no one stopped my trafficker, no one found out, even my closest family didn’t even know until I finally escaped. it was just me, alone, throwing up in a trash can and sitting in post op until the dizziness went away enough for me to drive.
the fact that it was so easy for me to get an abortion by myself (even in a red state, no questions asked) made it easier for my trafficker to slide under the radar. because no one asked questions about why I wanted to end my pregnancy, he got away with what he had done. because no one cared enough to step in and stop me, he went on to abuse me for almost another two years. if someone had just given a shit, maybe I would have escaped that much earlier. maybe he would have faced more severe consequences. maybe I wouldn’t be so fucked up.
don’t you fuckers ever pretend you give a shit about people like me. if you did, you would have been supporting crisis centers, pro-life pregnancy centers, and places that actually care about the situations that women are in when they deal with unexpected or traumatic pregnancies. you would be encouraging pregnant women and telling them that they ARE strong enough, they ARE brave enough, that they are loved and they will be okay and supported and that having a kid will not kill their career or end their school life. you would be telling them that a disabled child, an adopted child, an unexpected child is not unworthy of life itself just because that life will be difficult.
on that note, fuck you, life will ALWAYS be difficult. but you can make it an enjoyable fight, or a miserable truce. you can spit the blood out of your mouth and stick a roll of dimes in your hand and hit back harder or you can lay down and let shit curbstomp you and swallow your own broken teeth. the difference is in how you step outside of yourself and into the lives of the people around you. the difference is in how you love, and if you actually love people, you will never advocate for their death.
stop using situations like mine to excuse your own cognitive dissonance. I’m sick of y’all’s shit.
Romans 1: 27-28 KJV
And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
There will come a point where God may wash his hands off you if you reject his grace one too many times.
Luke 12:16-20 KJV
And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
You never know when you may die, and whether you will have the chance to accept God's grace.
Also, salvation from hell only comes from faith solely in Jesus Christ and the righteousness of his death and resurrection. So much so that by our faith in that act, we are deemed righteous. Not many people can entirely accept that concept off the bat, so if you wait until your deathbed, it might be too late.
So can you live a life of sin and gain salvation on your deathbed? Possibly. However, it is also possible that a person could jump out of a plane without a parachute and survive the landing.
So I can live a life of sin but apologize at the last moment? Your logic is flawed.
It is possible for someone to be saved on their deathbed, this is why we are saved by grace and not by works. It's Jesus works that save us, not our own.
God knows the human heart better than anyone, so He knows genuine repentance.
Everyone hated Jacques from the moment he showed up. Everyone wanted Jacques to die. There is no connection between Jacques and the audience up to the point he died. What baggage is there to deal with now that Jacques is dead?
Nothing, really.
Weiss also never showed any loyalty to Atlas anyway, and all she cared about Atlas is safe through the portal in Vacuo.
So Weiss has no baggage going into v9.
However, I am morbidly curious to see what Jaune's story is going to be.
I think I said this before but the idea that RWBY V9 may potentially be Jaune-centric turns me off so much.
First, starting with feeling sorry for Jaune. Then, become angry with Jaune when he (more than likely) tells the team what he did to Penny. After, feel sorry for Jaune again when they sort through all his pain. Finally, feel proud of Jaune for being a big boy and overcoming those obstacles.
Because when you look back at V8, Team RWBY didn't have any struggles to carry with them onto V9. Most of which they've just brushed off, already solved, or just waved away with the Staff.
If the tension between Ruby and Yang wasn't smudged out so soon, I could see it being a conflict between them into V9. More arguing, more heated emotions, more doubt within each other. I would've been OK with this idea, but they already solved that in V8, so there's nothing to take into the future.
I mean, even having Ruby fight with this internalized self-doubt feels like it's only going to be quickly snuffed out because her team won't stop babying her, and how quickly Ruby switches from "can't do this" to "can do this" feels disingenuous.
Jaune has the biggest baggage to carry into V9 after he killed Penny. Actually, quite a lot of the side characters have baggage after V8. Not Team RWBY though, hence why I believe this is going to be aggressively Jaune-centric, if not side character-centric.
DO you own any firearms? I think you'd like the taste.
Shot a few before and the cordite IS an acquired taste.
I prefer knives, myself.
