Jack Horner as a yandere mafia boss x reader? 👀👀👀

GRAHH ME LOVE MAFIA BOSS STUFF <33

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~ JACK HORNER HEADCANONS. ~

~~ YAN! MAFIA BOSS. ~~

× 'It's just, I'm constantly on the cusp,' ×

☆ CONTENT WARNING : Obsession and yandere things, mafia stuff ( violence, language ), nsfw themes. ☆

Sex, money, drugs.

Sex, money, drugs, murder, sex, money, drugs murder, s--

Yeah.

Being apart of the mafia isn't easy.

I mean, for Jack, the ringleader of it all, it is.

At his barking command, man would follow and obey. Listening to every word that dripped from his harsh tongue.

Off by a tad when giving that money to the mafia, ohh, how upsetting.

A gun was placed upon the head of a male, who failed to listen to what he was told. He tried to scoot away, try to trick JACK HORNER into thinking that the money he was given was all he had from that robbery.

What a fool.

He clicked the trigger, the barrel ready to fire upon his ever-lasting command.

But, the doors opened.

He was hunched a tad, as he had been looming over the tied up male that was on his knees on the floor. His pupils shot towards the doors, as two of his men brought in you.

You...

...

Who were you?

Confusion sprang in his chest, like a rabbit leaping from ground to ground.

He lowered the gun, as now the barrel aim towards the floor, as he scowled towards the two who dragged you in, they held you by your upper arms.

They explained to him, they caught you trying to steal from the pie business.

A cover-up business, but one he did truly enjoy.

He rolled his eyes, an angry hiss escaping from between plump lips, as he ordered around a girl, telling her to drag the guy off. To some kind of chamber , you couldn't tell.

Your head was spinning, you couldn't hear. They really knocked your ass out, huh?

But, the shadow of the looming male towered over you, what a monumental, butr yet gorgeous, man. His beautiful curves, those eyes that had wrinkled dripped out to the side and ohh...

You couldn't help it.

"Has anyone,, told you you're-- Gorgeous?" You stumbled out, words tripping over eachother,

Shock.

His heart almost stopped beating, his chest raising in on the big deep breath he took upon hearing that word slip out your teeth.

...

Maybe, you'd be of use.

And you were.

You stole money, magic, everything to satisfy what he needed.

More and more, his heart beat quicker when you stepped in. Oh my god, you drove him mad with desire. For you.

Oh, how he fantasized of you, his palm itching at his bulge, that foggy pink ball rested on its cushion, as water drizzled down your body, as you unknowingly showered...

God..

Damn.

Oh, but how sweet you were to him..

Your sweet coos, your soft purrs, your gentle touch upon hurt wounds caused from fighting, your jokes, your laugh, your smile, your grin, the way your nose scrunched st a bad smell, the way you rolled your eyes, the way you messed with your hair, your--

...

Everything about you drive him wild..

He sat in his chair. Such a long day.

Killing, selling,.buying, everything was so long..

But, he picked up the pink crystal that held your very image that made him so happy everyday..

His palms rested against the sides, as fingers curled and held upon the glass figure rhat was his. That he possessed so very well. He loved this little ball.

And how much content it helped provide him.

Oh..

How he loved it.

"Show them to me." He demanded out, as brows furrowed down towards his eyes. The image began to become foggy hues, the original cute pink fog morphing into disgusting colors, as it began to form your image.

You...

Why were you talking to them.

A rival? Are you serious!

An angry hiss escaped from slightly parted lips, as he felt like smashing that stupid little crystal into tiny, Itty bitty, pi--...

...

He watched closer, his eyes squinting as his lips pursed in anticipation. You moved strange.

But he watched as blood splattered upon the table that was in that dimly lit room, the aura was.. So much...

...

"This is for fucking with my boss, you fuckin' lowlife loser!" You screeched, as you drove the blade deeper into their chest.

...

There it was again.

That heavy beating.

That blush, that tinge of feeling that coated his cheeks like the sun on a good day...

Oh my god...

For him...

He reached and grabbed a stack of cash, and he pulled out a perfectly fitted ring.. Don't worry, just some stalker business..

...

You will be his.

He will kill you if you reject.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

× 'Of trying to kiss you.' ×

MAFIA GRAAAAH

002. Part 11

Words: 2,666 Tags: Merman AU, Angst, Drama, Flashbacks, Magick, and Witchery, Fluff, Summary: Kamski goes to see Amanda and finds out that she's been up to more than he realized, North and Josh have a moment, Simon notices that there is something about Ralph he can't quite place and Markus and Connor slip away...

Authors Note: Well things are slowly moving along now. Next chapter is going to be the intense smutty one I think.

The route he took to reach Amanda was one that Elijah was familiar with and he had with ease made sure that with his brief absence that the royal council would be fine, they were under his influence after all even if they didn't realize it. Advisors were something that every monarch needed but unlike most other rulers of his neighboring kingdoms, Elijah had none. He didn't need any after all his kingdom was one of the most thriving and richest one in the realm. The sun had set some time ago and the ocean was filled with an inky darkness which he was comfortable in navigating within in and when the familiar, dark and unwelcoming entrance to Amanda's abode he let out a smile and made his way soundlessly, elegantly gliding as he did so and he wasn't surprised to find Amanda waiting for him, but her gaze was focused on something which caught his attention immediately.

"He has gone, yess - ran away from you. I knew you would come to me. because of this." she said to Elijah, turning and smiling and those sharp, teeth glinted. "We shall get him back..." she added before motioning for the king to sit in his usual spot. Elijah didn't say anything but inside a strange sort of bubble, which seemed to have a similar look and feel to that of a jellyfish, was the image of a mer that looked strikingly like Connor, which he was distracted by. And he hadn't seen the smirk that graced Amanda's face.

It had not been easy for Amanda to create what the king of the Kamski kingdom was currently eyeing with a hunger that she didn't even blink at, she knew exactly what her best student wanted from Connor and she couldn't exactly blame him. To have Connor was a boon, just like his Mother was. Elijah's heritage was a blessing and given him the drive and confidence to seek what he wanted. Even if that meant at the end of it he would be an empty shell of himself.

When she had created that potion which would cause the eventual demise of the now deceased queen and goddess of the ocean, she had told Elijah that she would need some of his essence and the queen's as well and the look on the young monarch's face had been priceless but nevertheless, it was thanks to that and particularly powerful magic and years of nurturing on her account to create the slumbering mer, that was exactly like Conner albeit one that was also subservient to her and would do exactly as ordered.

"You need to focus please Elijah, but I always had a suspicion that there would come a point, should such an occurrence like this arise. That we would need a backup but do not be fooled that is not your son. That is just a subservient mer that looks exactly like Connor.." she told the monarch in such a way that it brought back his attention to focus on her.

"A plan for what exactly? How long have you had a replica of Connor?.." he replied and found himself straying to glance into the direction of the dark mer before shaking his head and turning back to look at Amanda. Just how much had she kept from him?

"He no longer has his bracelets but I managed to find out from Ralph's parents that they are within Jericho, a place that I had heard rumors of but held no real interest in.."

Amanda was strangely silent at the mention of Jericho and Elijah wondered if he had said something that had upset his mentor. And when she spoke whether it was to him or herself she was seething at his mentioning of the place but also it seems there was someone or something there, she had a history with. And he wondered if he should pry but decided that focusing on what exactly Amanda could offer with regards to getting back his son - and he had a sneaking suspicion that it would mean using whatever it was that thing was, an imitation of his beautiful son.

"Jericho does exist, a place of hope and sanctuary and a place I will bring to ruin, for it has been a long time coming - that akkursed Siren, I will have her heart and feast upon it. Long have I hungered for that sustenance.." Amanda said and although she had given away something of her past that she hadn't wanted to still she would help Elijah in ensuring that he got Connor back. And the subservient creation of hers that was a perfect imitation of the crown prince to make sure Jericho destroyed itself from within and gave her the opportunity to strike.

"But my dear Elijah, we will get your son back..you need not worry. I have been planning this for a very long time but you needn't worry about the bracelets, he has kept them on for so many years that he will still, fall under your submission when you ask it of him..."

Elijah felt himself feel a little more at ease hearing that Amanda had a plan in place although the fact it was something that had been a long time in the making, that was a little strange then again with Amanda a lot didn’t make sense and although she had been open in a lot of ways there were still so many unknowns about the dark-skinned mermaid. He often thought that perhaps she was more then a dark mermaid, something more older and crueller but was probably his imagination and he was over thinking too much. All that really mattered was getting his beautiful boy back beside him - where he belonged.

North felt butterflies in her stomach as she swam towards where Josh was waiting for her and even though he hadn't told her where he would be she instinctively knew he would be. Each and every one of them had a favorite place they liked to spend time with their thoughts and take a quiet moment to contemplate and think on things - and for Josh that would be where they took all of their weekly meetings. And the closer she got to it, he heartbeat quickened and she wondered just what exactly would happen. And she felt embarrassed what came to her mind and she let out a huff before taking a few steadying breaths before going through the threshold.

"Josh..? Are you here. I'm coming in...."

These feelings he felt for North he had been holding them for a long time and a smile graced his handsome features at the moment he had known, which was many years ago when they were much younger and rambunctious play was something that was something of a common occurrence.

~ Flashback ~

North had been a bit of a tomboy back then and although it was perhaps a little unorthodox that a mermaid would be roughhousing with merboys it wasn't something anyone wanted to come between, after everything she'd been through. Where so many felt pity for North, Josh never saw her in such a light, she was strong, resilient and beautiful even during that darkest moment in her life.

It wasn't unusual for altercations to happen between mer's, butr naturally mermaids were more lethal and deadlier, then their male counterparts and as such North tended to have an upper hand a lot of the time. But when Markus had seen a opening as she has done a playful roll to grab a passing swordfish who was clearly unhappy at being grabbed and used as an impromptu weapon and pinched her side a bit too hard causing North to let out a shrill noise of warning and causing her to let go of the swordfish that swam away quickly clearly not wanting to spend any more time near them.

With quick, movements she suddenly grabbed Markus who was their leader even then and pushed him hard against a cluster of dead corals that dug into Markus' back which caused the bronzed tan skinned mer to let out a noise of pain, before he yielded and it was at that moment, Josh knew that North was his someone. And he ignored the knowing gaze that Simon had pinned him with..

~ End Flashback ~

"Yeah I'm here North.." he replied, he was currently laid down on the meeting table before he moved himself so that he was sat up and facing North who seemed a little unsure and shy which caused him to smile softly. "You seem a little out of sorts North, her come sit down.." he said before pushing himself off where he was resting against and holding his hand out to North so he could guide her and he felt relieved that she followed his lead and he guided her to the table before she demurely sat down, her beautiful tail curling in as she did so.

"Did you have a good talk with Simon? I trust all is well..?" he asked, he wanted her to feel comfortable and before he confessed to her - he wanted to make sure she was calm and the tension that was visible in her attractive form was no longer there.

It was strange and yet not that she felt so calm around Josh whenever it was just the two of them there was a peace and silent understanding the two of them had and there were times in the past where Simon and Markus would bring it up to tease them both and it would end up with her getting a little wound up and snapping at them and it would be Josh who would calm things down. And she took the hand that was offered to her and let herself be guided even though she was very familiar with the layout of this room - it still felt nice and for some reason, she felt a little like a princess, a thought which she immediately quelled. What nonsense that was.

"Mmm..yes, I believe it went well. I was honest with Simon as to why I reacted in such a way and he was right, letting go of the past it the best thing to do. What happened in the past cannot be changed and truthfully its shaped me into who I am today.." she said in a confident manner, and she felt a lot more at ease opening up like this - but she always had been with Josh and she felt her face heat up and squeezed his hand tightly that she was still holding as he confessed what he felt for her.

"You have become such a wonderful and incredible mermaid North, I am always in awe of just how beautiful and strong you are, even if you are at times a little quick to anger - that to me is attractive also. I want you to know that I love you and have done for a really long time..." he said and it felt right that he had done so at that moment. Maybe he could have worded it a bit more eloquently but her reaction hadn't been a negative one, in fact, it seemed to be a positive one and he felt so much relief go through him and then he found himself being pulled close to North and she demanded he kiss her - and well he would obey his princess of course.

"Kiss me you oaf.." she murmured against his lips and she felt herself met a little at that chuckle that fell from him before she found those lips warm against her own as she moaned and instinctively pressed herself closer as the kiss deepened and tongues entwined and little noises of pleasure fell from both of them..

"Ralph loves it.." the blonde mer said letting out a cry of delight that seemed to harmonize with the gasp of surprise that fell from the brunettes as they finally made their way to the succulent garden that made Markus smile. That look of wonder on the brunette's beautiful, ethereal face was something he would commit to memory - just like he did with every inch of the runaway prince and he noticed that the scent from Connor was something that was causing him to not focus on anything but he somehow managed to find himself for a brief moment.

The garden was something that was truly magical and mainly because it was something that Lucy and Simon had spent a lot of time on - succulents didn't commonly grow underwater but this garden was under a large enchantment that allowed for them to grow and it was designed in a way to mimic and represent the beauty of the coral reefs that lay hundreds of meters above them in the warm shallows.

It was very clear that Ralph was thrumming with excitement and it seemed that it had an effect on Simon also. "Go ahead Ralph, you will be spending a lot of time here I am sure after all.." Markus said in understanding and he motioned for Simon to follow after and guide the other through the garden. Simon couldn't help but feel a warmth go through him at the fact Ralph who seemed to very shy and withdrawn at least with people he wasn't familiar with - that his excitement and happiness was somewhat contagious.

And he found himself noticing that the way the succulents seemed to respond to Ralph's delicate touches was a little unusual, that wasn't something that happened often and it was also even more so that Markus has knowingly understood and let Connor's friend explore and to ensure that he could have a moment with the brunette. Markus was a sly one indeed.

"I'll go make sure he settles in alright.," Simon said addressing both the brunette mer and their leader before swimming over to where Ralph was and feeling the urge to be near his fellow blonde and for some reason wanting to give his friend and the brunette a moment alone.

As soon as Markus spoke, Ralph wasted no time in approaching the garden in a careful and almost reverent manner and took his time in gazing at each succulent with a warm gaze before gently reaching out and letting out a brilliant smile as they responded to his touch, Queen Chloe had been a wonderful teacher and she had gifted Ralph as well in his own right and had only enhanced his natural and innate ability to care, nurture and love something that he truly cared for and looked after to thrive and blossom beautifully. And that seemed to be the way, as Ralph moved the garden seemed to brighten and become more radiant with his presence.

"I have no doubt Ralph will make this part of Jericho beautiful.." Connor said wistfully and he felt suddenly a lot warmer and he pulled his gaze away from his friend to focus on Markus who was looking at him in a hungry manner and he let himself be pulled away from Ralph and Markus' friend and led away to somewhere more private.

There was a change in Connor’s scent that demanded Markus take him away now from everyone and lock the both of them away and so when Connor let him pull the both of them away he felt a thrum of want and arousal go through him. He would lay claim and have his Connor, and by the goddess, his smell was bringing him to arousal a lot faster than was normal.

Simon glanced back when he noticed that Markus and Connor has silently slipped away and be jolted a little when his fellow blonde mer spoke. "Ralph knows all will be well. Ralph doesn't want you to worry.." and he nodded. Things would be alright and he didn't need to worry. All would be well.

Dream, I controlled.my dream😅

Yeah, I just woke up and I didn't want to forget what happened. However, it was a dream that I think I dreamt of it before😅 it was really weird.

So here's what happened, I am with my friends, fg excluding the one who is above already. We are with Sarah Geronimo. HAHA. I thought of vlogging that time, so I took up my phone and started to take a video of us. The content of course has something to do with Sarah, she's a singer and an actress! So I took the chance.

Me: "Are you really Sarah Geronimo? The singer?"

Sarah: "Yes, I am" she said it in a casual way, looking at her dress. Yea, she was holding a black dress. Backless with yellow roses covering the top portion. It was only above the knee. After some time, her husband, Matteo showed up with suit, then they joined the video. Before ending it, they showed sweet gestures to each other.

Not to mention, we are in a wedding. That time, it was the wedding of Matteo, with another woman. 😅 I didn't see the woman, it was like she's not an important part of the story, she was a blur. It was an arranged marriage to a family of high class, I think it was nearly a royal family. We were in a luxurious hotel, I think its the reception because there are a lot of people eating. We were in our ordinary clothes then.

You know how dreams are weird, once we went down on the base of the hotel where Matteo passed by, our clothes became formal, I am still with my friends. Once we got down, Yvan is the one getting married. Yes, Yvan Sarol Tundagui😂😅 still, we don't know the woman, she was the one who belonged in a high class. But Yvan's father that time is not as rich as the girl's family. I don't really remember but he got embarrassed most of the time because the girl's dad and relatives are giving him a hard time. I mean, they asked where are his part of the wedding, the payments, the pig, (I don't know why a pig is required, but its a wedding and I think it has something to with our culture here in Banaue), and others. As for us, we thought it was just a normal marriage and we were aware of it being an arranged one, and the groom has someone he really loves. And so, the wedding goes on, we were eating and watching which eventually became a jamming, they played songs and we sang along, asking each table there which songs they prefer. When it's our turn to choose, we chose the song, One Day. Actually, I did. Me, being half awake thought of that song. Sadly, they don't have it. After some time, we felt the gap between us and the family, we are being discriminated, the high class and the low class😅

They had this conversations na sinasadya nilang iparinig samin, sinasabing we don't belong there. We stayed silent and observed. Of course I can't, we can't accept this treatment.

"Eto ba? Eto bang pamilya ang napangasawa niyan?"

My dream shifted, from being with my friends to me being alone and helping in the kitchen. As of controlling my situation, hindi ako nagpatalo sa treatment nila. From being a guest, I became a worker. The father of the bride is the one evil, the one who discriminates. At first, I was answering him back in my head. Pero sumosobra na siya, sabi ko sa dream ko. I told you, I am in control of my dream. I made myself answering back the "almost" king, they are really mayaman you know.

He was in the kitchen, I was about to eat and have my rest but I have to wash the dishes because it needs to be done. Once I finished, he came and shouting saying that what are we doing ? We should be working because there are a lot of guests. I turned around to face him and I answered back, he became silent for a moment then went near me. I don't know what exactly happened but I know, I controlled myself back then to fight back. He was I think suppoesed to hit me but as I said, I was controlling. Iniwasan ko yung sampal niya which made him froze for a while. Never thought that someone will talk back and fight back. I am not afraid of his wealth and stand. In my thought is that, this is not right. Someone has ro fight back. I was half awake. After thinking of that, I woke myself up. I was aware that it was a dream. But I am really half awake. My dream even had a subtitle but I can't read there. I remembered reading something like, you can't read in your dreams. And I proved it two times already. Now, I will wait of having a dream that incluses reading.

9:44 am.

1:04 am, 02-34-21. I edited this and realized that I think we don't really control our dreams. It's just that we know and expect what we will do when we are in that situation. If not, then I think we can somehow control our dreams when half awake, butr connot control it entirely.

http://invested-in-your-future.tumblr.com/post/165331225385/white-fang-is-not-blm-but-rwby-sure-as-hell

Yes, it is. You just don’t want to admit it.

First of all let me begin by establishing the key arguments for why I am saying that.

White Fang is not like BLM.

Thereâ€™s no Equivalent of BLM in Remnant.

Activist organization is a necessity.

False Equivalence Between the two is problematic narrative direction

Those three key points basically explain my thoughts on this matter and highlight a HUGE flaw within Remnantâ€™s worldbuilding as well as problematic approach RT is taking by assuming a â€œmoderateâ€ stance that violence of any kind invalidates the cause instantly.

So letâ€™s dive in into each of those points after the cut.

And as we will soon see: She’ll prove herself to be quite racist and problematic herself.

And that’s the thing: The White Fang ARE like Black Lives Matter. BLM has been causing damage through out the country such as hijack a pride parade (http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/pride-parade-toronto-1.3662823) and a prominent leader attacked a police officer (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/baton-rouge-officer-sues-prominent-black-lives-matter-activist-deray-mckesson/). Hell, if I brought in a certain friend of mine I could get even more dirt because he hates BLM a lot more than I do. And he’s black so what’s your excuse there?

White Fang is NOTHING like #BLM

Letâ€™s be frank, White Fang is basically ISIS in its presentation. Its shown as being a terrorist group that preys upon those who suffer from oppression and prejudice and converts them into their warriors for some imaginary world-wide racial war their leader perpetuates. Its an organization that is not interested in actual peace. An organization that THRIVES upon there being conflict.An organization that threatâ€™s itâ€™s own members like shit and at least one of itâ€™s higher ups(Adam) is a highly abusive psychopath, which yet again draws (unintentional?)parallels to ISIS treatment of women and civilians.

The thing is - BLM is nothing like that. Its an organization that is very much a continuation of MLK Civil Rights movement. Its an organization that is willing to put themselves in harms way for what they believe in and longs for a solution but does not sit there playing moderates and ignoring the need for action.

Letâ€™s be frank - Remnant NEEDS something like that. An activist organization that stands up for the oppressed. Â Since thereâ€™s nothing like that White Fang is basically using that vacancy for hteir advantage.

...No, no it is not.

ISIS is not motivated by oppression or prejudice: In fact, ISIS THEMSELVES spread oppression and prejudice and are self aware of that. Why? because they take the tenets of Muslim belief way too far. In this sense, ISIS is more like the Crusaders from the old days of the Catholic church being motivated by a severe misinterptation of a religious ideal. To say they are the same in their presentation is misrepresenting the facts at hand. There’s only two reasons why you would say this: A. You think Muslim is a racial term which I highly doubt or B. You’re drawing false equivalency.

And...No, BLM is NOT like the Civil Righst Movement. Their methods are far too violent and far too forceful to be that. Proof, here: (https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2015/08/24/i-was-a-civil-rights-activist-in-the-1960s-but-its-hard-for-me-to-get-behind-black-lives-matter/?utm_term=.f9e030d0da39 / http://www.wnd.com/2015/10/civil-rights-leader-black-lives-matter-angry-godless-hateful/ / http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-black-church-activism-20160801-snap-story.html) Numerous people who do embody the ideals of Martin Luther King Jr. outright disavow Black Lives Matter because they don’t embody those ideals.

Yeah...Just like the White Fang was in it’s conception, back when Ghira was leading them. Yeah, your ISIS parallel falls apart more here because ISIS has ALWAYS been violent but civil rights movements? THey have slowly degraded from the proud Civil Rights Movement to the far less effective Black Panthers to the outright contradictory and useless Black Lives Matter now. It’s a story about not becoming the evil you fight and being self aware of your problems...Huh, I guess that’s why you want the White Fag to be absolute good: You want your self blindness to celebrated.

The Vacant Throne of Social Activism

Remnant is a violent and dangerous world. Paranoia runs high and communications are limited between the four kingdoms. Faunus, those who are â€œdifferent from thenormâ€ make easy scapegoats to externalize that paranoia. And the said paranoia is an easy scapegoat for externalizing your own bigotry. Some people might be prejudiced out of paranoia. Others on other hand will hide their prejudice and bigotry BEHIND excuses of paranoia. Either way it is minorities that suffer.

Letâ€™s be frank - its a world where it has been just around hundred(or less) years since a big World War kind of scenario which also happened to involve genocidal intentions and nation-wide racism against the faunus. Faunus are the people who had to FIGHT for their right to be recognized as EQUALS.

There has only been a century of â€œpeaceâ€ after that. World does not fix itself just via that. As show most often said(yet somehow not shown), humans might have â€œrecognizedâ€ faunus as equals, but most of it is just on paper and not in reality. Prejudice, racism, bigotry, etc, are still everyday occurences. Hell if to continue drawing parallels to our world - there has been approx a century between the start of MLK movement and the end of US Civil War. Our world did not magically fix itself via a war â€œbeing wonâ€. Hell even now, another 60 years latter, its still filled with racism and bigotry. Why would Remnant a world with giant terrifying monsters and society less advanced be any different in shorter period of time?

So yeah, Remnant has itâ€™s oppressed. Faunus even now are treated like slaves in Atlas and Mistral is still trying to force them out of Anima continent into Menagerie. Even Vale, the self-proclaimed â€œcenter of the worldâ€ has problems like ethnically-fueled bullying. The issue is still there.

And when there are oppressed, situation arises where thereâ€™s a position to be filled to stand up against oppressors. The oppressed will obviously flock towards those who stand up, starting a chain reaction of oppressed minorities standing and resisting their oppressors. Oppression is like a barrel of dynamiteâ€¦and the choice to stand up against it is the fuse that changes everything.

It just so happens that that position is filled by WF, who currently are more interested in consolidating power and fueling conflict rather fighting for actual rights.

What Prejudices? What racism? What examples?

See, you can’t claim that everywhere is racist when you only have...what, one example? And yes it is one because I don’t see any racism in Mistral yet so you’re making that up and Atlas is very much an isolated incident which isn’t even TOTAL racist to begin with Neon Katt being a student. And Cardin? Cardin was looked down upon and treated as a villainous idiot for thinking that way.

Which leads me to my next point: You say that it isn’t logical for Remnant to get rid of Racism and bigotry. While that is true to an extent:, you treat the situation of both our world and Remnant as if they still hold the values of 1950′s when in actuality: Bigotry and racism is heavily looked down upon in our society and it is the same for Remnant. You give off this message of the situation being like Fanaus can’t get jobs and are frowned upon in society when in fact, they are not as a whole. In a few select areas, yes but that’s total consistent with our world as well. So stop misrepresenting the facts.

And you talk about how fear and paranoia are rampant in Remnant...butr you treat the actions of groups like Black lives Matter, who cause violence against people for race (http://www.cleveland19.com/story/32814897/men-chant-black-lives-matter-before-viciously-attacking-white-victims) (http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/nov/16/black-lives-matter-protesters-berate-white-student/) as a good thing. You talk about how bigots will try to use that fear as a reason to be racist...which is what they do with Black Lives Matter in real life. Yeah, you’re whole post is starting to crumble.

White Fang is a mistake, but Social Activism is a Necessity

Letâ€™s be frank. â€œPeacefulâ€ activism might sound nice on paper but it is a naive idealistic pipe dream. Being peaceful works only as long as the other side does not decide to bring combat vests, guns or cops against youâ€¦.or drive a car into you. Now there are EXTREMES which should most likely not be reached, but Remnant or our world, you canâ€™t fight for what you believe without FIGHTING. Thereâ€™s a reason why word activism starts with â€œactâ€.

Moderacy(synonymous with indifference) is not gonna tip the scales towards equality. Its a cool pipedream to â€œbe in the middleâ€, but the thing is - the middle between two points is usually closer to the one side that is far more extreme than the other. If you meet racist in the middle, you have already strayed far far right from the norm. The idea of â€œmoderate middleâ€ presents the toxic ideology that wanting things like equal rights, equal representation, etc is somehow â€œextremeâ€ or â€œout of the norm. Â MLK is often quoted having said that White Moderate is pretty much one of the biggest enemies and it is true - to be â€œin the middleâ€ in most of cases means to NOT stop the oppressor AND to not help the oppressed.

To attain equality you need to be able to actually push back. To take action instead of being indifferent. The thing is - for that you can be easily labeled as an extremist. But as, once again, MLK put it - the question is what KIND of extremist are you gonna be?

Its easy to take the path of White Fang and use the existing problems as path to power. And sure that is what we see with the White Fang in Remnant. Whoever is leading the WF is seeing a power vacuum and susceptible people that can be radicalized into serving the leaderâ€™s needs.

But Â the thing is - one should be able to chose the other way and actually participate in activism FOR the actual minorities. You donâ€™t need to be â€œISIS-type of extremistâ€, you can be BLM type of activist.

The problems donâ€™t disappear just by removing the White Fang from the equation. It just returns the situation to status quo. You still need SOMETHING willing to stand up and tip the scales back to balance and equality.

While its weird that thereâ€™s no opposite organization to White fang, you could write that off to â€œcreative libertiesâ€ and stuff - writers could have needed WF to be the only Â ones to set up WFâ€™s power.

So it should be easy right? Just have Blake amass power and create her own organization that stands up for actual rights of the faunus and is willing to do anything to protect them. Sure Faunus are not about skin color and it is about species, but the comparison still works ideologically.

Its easy but thatâ€™s where the show starts walking a REALLY slippery slope of false equivalence and bad writing.

“Naïve pipe dream”...

With those three words, you have lost any right to debate this topic: IT HAPPENED IN REAL LIFE. NUMEROUS TIMES. That’s how black people got equal rights and that’s how women got equal rights. It can’t be a pipe dream if IT HAPPENED. You are seriously blinding yourself to reality if you try to argue THAT.

Uh...Yes you can: Civil Rights Movement did it. See your entire point is invalidated by the existence of the Civil Rights Movement...which you used as an example earlier!

... “the question is what KIND of extremist are you gonna be?”

... You bitch. That is NOT the full quote!

The full quote reads as follows: “So the question is not whether we will be extremist but what kind of extremist will we be. Will we be extremists for hate or will we be extremists for love?”

Yeah, don’t you dare try using him to justify your bullshit. You choose your extreme of hate a long time ago: Don’t try painting yourself as good anymore. And DON’T GO DISRESPECTING A GREAT MAN.

ISIS IS NOT AN ACTIVIST MOVEMENT! I lost my temper with you a while ago, don’t push me. You’re only saying that to make BLM look good. ISIS is not, never has nor will it ever be an activist movement. BLM is and you just wanna paint them as a good guy when in fact, they are the negative extreme. Being a BLM activist is being a terrible activist and actually harming your cause because it gives your opponent’s a reason to exist. At that point, you are creating your own villain.

No oone is saying “get rid of the White Fang”: The show is actively against that idea. It’s just saying “Get the genocidal manic and racist murderers out of the organization to get it back on the right track”: Are you so egotistical that you believe yourself right in every action you take. That you can cross whatever extreme you want and it’s fine, that people who call you out are automatically wrong? God damn it!

There is an opposite organization: The White Fang of the past, the White Fang that Blake originally joined, the one her family built up, the one that Adam stole and corrupted. You act like the White Fag has always been this way which just shows you either don’t watch the show or you’re blyinga nd misrepresenting the information at hand.

... You’re an idiot: The White Fang can still be salvaged and redeemed. Just like the SDC can be redeemed from it’s horrible past. Just...stop talking

Oh go right ahead: Give me more ammo.

Problematic False Equivalence and Bad Writing

The problem with worldbuilding in world of remnant and narrative themes in RWBY overall is that writers seem to instantly equate ALL kinds of activism to extremism.

Blake creating BLM equivalent is logical step for her. Its logical step towards challenging Adam and challenging the new WF leader who took the position from her dad.

The problem is that to RWBY writers BLM and ISIS seems sort of the same kind of maybe????

With the release of Blake character Short, it seems writers thing the viewer should see Ilia punching the bigot school friends in the teeth as some sort of warning sign or bad thing. Thereâ€™s a preachy Â underline to the conflict in Blakeâ€™s story that you can only achieve something by being completely peaceful.

Its the same kind of idea perversion as those claiming that MLK would somehow find BLM abhorrent - the idea that MLK preached purely peaceful activism and condemned all violence. Letâ€™s be frank - thatâ€™s not what MLKâ€™s Civil Rights movement was and MLK was not some holy moderate god. He understood the importance of standing up and taking action. Civil War was not won by simply waving a white flag and meeting others in the middle. Civil War took resistance. MLK condemned needless violence sure and wanted a peaceful solution, but he understood that it wonâ€™t come from just talking. The problems and inequality and bigotry was something that was needed to be SHOWN to the world. MLK understood that. He understood that you canâ€™t just sit and wait, you need to SHOW it. A lot of Civil Rights Movement revolved around standing up against white privilege and trying to turn the populationâ€™s attention towards the issues racial minorities face. And the world HATED that back then. Civil Rights movement was viewed as â€œneedlessly polarizingâ€ and â€œextremistâ€ by your average white people. But now MLK is lauded as a hero by children of the very same people and it is very clear that the said movement WORKED, even if it did not finish itâ€™s job. Activism is NEEDED for change to occur. It is still needed. If you are pushed into a corner you need to push back, you need to punch Â back.

So why should Remnant be different? Why canâ€™t Faunus make their voice be heard loud and clear and stand up for themselves?

Hell, even in terms of Remnant history the preachy message makes no sense - The faunus Civil war was not fought by Faunus sitting down and talking it all over and over again. It was a war. Part of great war. Where not just faunus but whole kingdoms stood up against certain ideas and to protect certain values.

Why making your voice heard is suddenly wrong now? The issues are the same, they are just more in background. The racism is still there, just more systematic and less open.The bigotry is still there. It might not be a â€œwarâ€, but as Blakeâ€™s very same character short shows, the faunus still keep dying in counts of dozens everyday.

Thereâ€™s nothing wrong with opposing WF with violent force, yet it is somehow wrong to push back against systematic oppression and acts of bigotry?

Its somehow RIGHT to throw dozens of WF members off the moving train(and into a tunnel cave in full of grimm, but somehow it is WRONG for Ilia to punch bunch of insensitive racist pricks who are laughing at DOZENS OF PEOPLE DYING?

Activism is not same as extremism. BLM is not same as ISIS. Standing up for equality in is not the same as acts of terror. Taking a stand against white supremacy is not the same as driving a car into a crowd of protesters. Punching a racist in the teeth for being a racist is not the same as staging an invasion into a whole peaceful country.

... NO! The writing does NOT equate all activism as extremism: The White Fang of the past PROVES THAT! The show is just saying that anyone can become like what they fight, that the path to hell is paved with good intentions, that you should beware staring into the abyss lest the abyss stares back! The only reason you say that is either because you are so blind to reality that you cannot comprehend what is actually going on or YOU ARE LYING in order to force people to see your side as the absolutely right.

THE CURRENT WHITE FANG IS THE BLM EQUVILANET! Stop treating a homophobic, racist, violent, self defeating movement as some pinnacle of humanity and stop ignoring the existence of the previous White Fang and the Civil Righst Movement to suit your narrative.

No, the only person here who thinks that BLM and ISIS are the same is the person who tried comparing a racial radicalist movement to ISIS IE you.

HE WOULD! He was a man of God! A man of peace! A man of love and acceptance! BLM literally lacks all of that! They instigate violence, they show nothing but hate and when people tried fighting for their own races, they threw a bitch fit! Seriously, you only think that because you are so blind and arrogant and egotistical that you cannot see the destruction around you.

‘Punch back” huh? I didn’t know a MAN OF GOD, a follower of JESUS CHRIST, IE The guy who literally said “Turn the other cheek” would advocate VIOLENCE! For Christ's csake, he was a PACIFIST. THEY DON’T FIGHT BACK! Great, now that’s TWO PEOPLE I respect that you’ve insulted: Wanna try for three with Monty Oum or Fredrich Nieztche?

THEY DID! Previous White Fang! Show’s lore contradicts you!

Gee, maybe people don’t like it when you start murdering everyone who disagrees with you...Including other Fanaus! yeah, Vale, that place that the White Fang unleashed Grimm on, had FANAUS living there. It’s a problem because PEOPLE ARE DEAD.

It WAS wrong to oppose the previous White Fang with violence because they were peaceful...and the people who did were wrong and the show treats them that way. PREVIOUS White Fang , not CURRENT White Fang because since they want to kill, they get killed. Law of the universe.

Considering those White Fang members where trying to destroy Vale, killing millions of innocents...HUMAN AND FANAUS: yes.

And Illa was wrong: because now they can always talk about how that awful, disgusting Fanaus assaulted them. They now have a REASON to be bigots. All because of Illa. They weren’t right in laughing but Illa was wrong in attacking.

No, BLM is not like ISIS...only that BLM uses racism as an excuse and have roots in something good whereas ISIS uses religion and was never good.

No...But it is the same as advocating the genocide of an entire race and killing innocent people that you are supposedly fighting for. Yeah, Adam contradicts your arguments.

Its an issue that really makes RWBY worldbuilding and intentions take a huge nosedive.

Its so easy to fix and its so easy to give thematic empowerment to minorities and it is needed for thematic coherence, but it seems writers are too busy with their â€œboth sidesâ€ bullshit it seems. Its especially problematic in the world we live in.

Nope, it doesn’t d any of that. The real world supports RWBY and it’s message with the likes of the Civil Rights Movement being peaceful and being the only one that succeeded.

But why are you saying that? Easy:

P. S: Its weird because its the complete opposite of what RVB did in latest season with making evil enemy grunts be alt-right tangerine-supporter assholes before the main characters murder the fuck outta them. Is there any coherence in company values at Rooster Teeth or not?

See, you are so obsessed with being justified that you confuse “internet trolls” with “conservatives.”

You hate moderates because they expose your thoughst for what they are: Sick, twisted, backwards and wrong. You are basically General Kimball if she refused General Doyle’s lesson: You refuse to see the other side as human and see your own flaws. You want to be right because you are egotistical and insane.

Well, Too bad. RT is a moderate place and company and they’ve always done this. What you want is to be locked into an echo chamber and have everything you want agree with you but since RT doesn't pander to you: You refuse to see your reflection and you don’t want any reality to show you.

My only response: Go somewhere else and take your bullshit with you.
