#and she has a reason to be mad at mirabel for the proposal even if deep down she knows it's not what she really wants

Hot take that shouldn’t be a hot take but Isabela is not the high school mean girl queen bee bitch that some of y’all like to think she is. 
#isabela madrigal#isabela my beloved#isabela is best girl#encanto#encanto fandom#encanto fandom salt#like yes she was mean to her sister mirabel#but you people ignore the fact that she was also a victim of alma's expectations#alma controlled her every move and literally she was convinced throughout her entire childhood that because she has to be pretty and perfect#that she is automatically superior to mirabel who has no gift at all#we must also not forget that some of this comes from jealousy like the fact that she wished she had the freedom that mirabel did#she even wishes in the books that she didn't have a gift sometimes#and she has a reason to be mad at mirabel for the proposal even if deep down she knows it's not what she really wants#plus mirabel's not entirely innocent either she literally refuses to see isabela as anything other than a perfect selfish entitled princess#her apology was not genuine in any way so miss me with the isabela didn't apologize to mirabel crap#because technically mirabel didn't apologize either#even when isabela admitted that she didn't want to marry mariano and the cactus sprung up mirabel doesn't care#her reaction is entirely sarcastic and she doesn't even take the time to process it and let it sink in#instead jumping right away to well that sucks anyway it's time to hug like the prophecy says we have to#isabela is halfway through her song when mirabel finally realizes there is more to her than the surface#isabela might have been antagonistic towards mirabel and she does have more of a responsibility as the older sister to be nicer to her#but mirabel refuses to see things from isabela's point of view as well neither of them are perfect they are both equally to blame#i don't know i just wish we could take twice the amount of energy we put into analyzing two of the male characters' every move#when one of them is not even important and put it into the female characters' instead#but no we just label isabela as a mean bitch to her sister and mirabel as the good one hence pitting them against each other#the same way people do for abuela#as well as refuse to understand dolores' motives for spilling the secret as well#it's annoying how much y'all demonize the female characters in the movie#like just admit that you hate feminine women especially non-white ones and go#and die lol
