Wait so this wasn't about him being afraid of everyone he knows not only rejecting him but hating him?
It was him being scared others would see his male skeleton?
All of his scenes were trans issues all the way down?
>>

The trans thing is a part of his whole mess, it doesn't overwrite anything, it is a part of the whole thing.

Did he hate every woman he met, and thought he could get into a relationship with Gangle by being a 'dere, because he's trans?
>>
>>154313151
Yes. Jax is trans. Everything about him has always been trans and all of his issues stem from him not accepting his transness. That's the moral of Jax's story.

The series is, and always was, cult propaganda. Pass it on, so we can Memoryhole it from history.

But no, not up to interpretation, no subtlety, no nuance: he's just a tranny and he killed himself, great, amazing.
I really want from now on every story to be like this, just have fatherless black men that turn to thieves, transgender characters that kill themselves and oh what else, maybe some mexican guy that really loves spicy food!
How can these people be so tone deaf honestly, yet they end up freaking out after someone made the 'nega-jax' joke.

The more I go back and watch the show, the less Abstractions seem to be "dead" and more like they seem to be in an altered state. It seems like what happens when an AI loses grip on their identity and experiences ego death. IE, there's a non-zero chance that accepting he's trans would literally fix it but he just isn't ready.

>>154314456
Being trans is not like being a hobbit, because being trans means you have revolting surgical monstrosities done to your penis and balls and everytime someone is talking about trans people it makes me think of the gif of those things happening and my mind physically feels that happening to my genitals in relation, like how looking at gore makes the limbs affected hurt MY limbs. It is phyiscally repulsing to consider trans people and I hate that and I never want to have to, they have psychically damaged me with their mental disease and now that’s what TADC is. Psychic damage.

This scene happened cause Goose find a cool fanart like it and decided to insert it in the show without thinking much about it. Does anyone have that pic btw?
>>
>>154314626
Interesting theory, but not really supported by the show, especially with Zooble.
And it most definitely wouldn't be ego death.
Abstraction was probably less confusing before Pomni proved you could mind meld with one and somehow the person is still inside.
>>
Even if Goose imagined the whole thing as a trans story, I would have kept that stuff a little more subtle. Imagine the longevity due to theory-crafting if they had been more cryptic about it and didn't spend most of the finale on Jax.
>>
>>154314980

>>
>>154315105
Zooble has a solid identity, that's why she hates the parts she gets.
>>
>>154314385
>>154314513

To my understanding the deliberate vagueness of the finale was the point even if it was clearly inspired by personal connection to Goose's transness.

You can't separate Jax from the trans lens that Goose wrote from but it is ultimately the lens through which the true theme of his character, the consequences of self-hatred, abrasive masking, and lashing out are explored.

>>154315216
From my point of view, the sequence of Pomni seeing Jax's mind was the only part of the finale that didn't drop the ball.
It wasn't done that well but it wasn't that bad either, it was even enjoyable to an extent.
But for Goose to then go "Jax would've been a tranny if he didn't have hang ups" it's just posthumously dropping the ball.

Granted, I do feel awful for >her, since the Digital Circus fanbase gives Steven Universe's fanbase a run for their money in who is the most cancerous.

I feel like Goose's initial intentions weren't clear and she didn't commit to it until the very very end. She says she planned it all out after the pilot but I don't entirely trust that. I think a few things about Jax don't make sense if he wasn't a guy.
>the program that makes digital bodies uses their "mind files"
>hard coded Zooble's dysphoria and Gangle's depression into a physical form
>Jax's body is still masculine

I'd actually be genuinely interested in a story where Jax manages to break free from abstraction, but at the cost of having to be randomly thrown back into the world as a girl before he's fully accepted it, now dealing with the pressure of accepting that long repressed part of himself, alongside the compounding pressure of feeling like he *has* to accept it or he'll literally die again.

So you have this conflict where it genuinely is something he wants, but he also feels like the entire universe is forcing it on him, and at a breakneck pace he wasn't prepared for.

>people accepting Goose's canon like being transgender is real
If he wanted to be a girl, it was likely because he was treated like the devil for being a man.
He's only accepted if he's hyperemotional and feminine, we see this in the show when he's trauma dumping to Ribbit and in real life.
Jax is not the only toxic character, but he is toxic in a masculine way that involves intentional isolation, the show is basically saying the longhouse vibes are more important than a male and his issues and instead of finding a way to foster positive masculinity, the man should spiritually(and literally for Noose) relinquish his maleness and be perpetually reliant and on the validation of feminine figures which he must blindly trust despite their intentions.
>>
>>154315444
Jax is essentially two characters and the switchover is so sudden and then consumes the show so badly, that I cannot actually believe that the real intention was for the show to always be about the mystery of Jax and his tragic past, and that's all we were ever building up to, including explicitly showing what their real life counterparts have been doing for years and then... not hiring a trans actor to play human Jax? Makes me feel like they slapped in the Stevie Wonder track and the clipshow at the last second. It didn't fit the visual language of the show at all, has no connection to the characters in the scene, and felt mostly like it was trying to make the audience feel sad for a character they already wasted the whole episode trying to be sad about.

Just reads like bullshit tranny pop psychology. There's literally no winning with them. Jax doesn't react and doesn't care because he's been a digital cartoon character for years now? Obviously that means he's trans too! But if he gets embarrassed by the embarrassing thing forced on him? That's also a sign he's trans, according to these retards who couldn't even recognize their own crippling mental illnesses, but will confidently tell you that they psychoanalyzed a poorly written cartoon character made by an amateur production team, and all the clues were totally there the entire time, and not only that, but all of it was planned before the show was ever made.

>>154316354
Goose used a clever writing trick called, "Being a fucking talentless hack faggot" to cleverly trick the audience by making Pomni the primary POV character, and framing the show through Pomni getting familiar with the circus and the other characters to misdirect us from noticing that the entire time Jax was subconsciously informing the audience that he has tragic mommy issues and complicated feelings about his own gender identity.

You'd think they'd at least ask each other what year it was when someone new popped in, right?

Nigga, I wish I was a girl literally every day and I'm not trans. That's just part of being an incel. It's easier finding a man as a woman than finding a woman as a man.

Or what about the fact that Jax was constantly breaking the fourth wall even in the finale... when he was never a special character with a reason to do this? He even bitched about how the finale was shit as if that makes it better.

No, he also had severe trust issues, is overly violent and sadistic, was afraid of going to jail for killing his mother, and was living in constant denial about the realities of life in the circus and his relationships with others due to an unwillingness to come to grips with his feelings and how his behavior impacts others.

Honestly his trans issues were the least of his problems beyond the fact that it played a role in the incident that caused some of his issues to develop.

He arbitrarily decides when they can and can't change outfits. We literally see him making a body for his first victim and the process is a glitchy mess like everything else he makes.

Nobody actually said they got used to their bodies. Zooble and Gangle both complain about theirs across the series and they *definitely* came up with some modifications by the ending.

Presumably they'd be modifying their forms into shit they're more comfortable with as time went on and they learned to work with their creator powers that Caine enhanced.

Let this show be evidence that trannies are literally, physically unable to make something that isn't about themselves. I *hoped* that it wouldn't be the case, I really did, but it isn't. They just can't help themselves.

>>154313873
The moral of the story is that you should let other people help you and not hurt others preemptively to protect yourself even if you've been hurt before. The moral is that your copes for your problems won't work if they're destructive. This is applies to everyone not just trans people. Transphobes are fucking brainless

Dude had issues - problems with his identity/sexuality were part of it, but people trying to make it out that it was the be-all-end-all of the character just have an axe to grind.

This really is why it was a bad idea.
They started with it supposedly mirroring a part of themselves but in the theme of Caine's circus.
It was supposed to mean something because of that but never did and no-one cared what they were by the end of it.

This is what bothered me the most about the entire show. You'd think that if you were faced with the prospect of eternity stuck in a digital world being toyed with by AI, you'd be trying to learn everything possible about the world you're stuck in and exhaust every avenue for escape. But no, they seemed far more willing to accept their broader circumstances, give up at the first sign of failure, and never really prod or ask questions beyond that. Like, Pomni didn't think to put a bucket on Kinger's head and start asking him serious questions about the place until Ep 8? And even then, they only cared about asking him how to tard-wrangle Caine? Nobody seemed to notice Caine has outside access to the rest of the world and inquire deeper about that?

>>154313151
No. This is about Jax fearing other people seeing him weak and laughing at them. It's about their vulnerability and the mask they wear being dismantled. It's related to the trans thing but it's not a literal skeleton thing. It's a metaphor for performative behavior.
>>
>>154316252
I really disagree. It was foreshadowed with the maid stuff and with the 'ladies first' line and Jax going 'why would I ever say that?'.
Jax's insincerity and fear to commit to feminine gender presentation that she clearly prefers is very blatant in hindsight.
I think people who deny this simply aren't watching past episodes with an open mind.
It was very clearly planned out.
>>
>>154313151
Nah it's just a tranny misunderstanding male weakness and vulnerability for being feminine and thus equating it to gender dysphoria.
Men can feel troubled by things that are psychological, but weak minded men with coom brains need a reason to associate mental instability with it being 'solved' by transitioning.

Good description.
They waited until Caine made a specific adventure about it.
They didn't even do the bare minimum of asking what Kaufmo was up to.

The bucket head thing seems retarded to me in general because they didn't explain how that actually makes it dark for him (and even start rendering his eyeball on the outside of the bucket) and they should have just tried to make a dark room. I mean, what would have been so hard about adding a shadow effect where the bucket is on his head?

the entire story about people stuck inside a digital hellscape with all the implications and possible themes to explore turned out to be about a single character struggling with being trans, wow.
>>
>>154327553
artists that unironically explore how Jax would still suffer simply from being trans make me chuckle, almost as if accepting you're a male that can still wear makeup and dresses is healthier and won't make you worry about "passing".

That's what it IS. Jax is based on gooseworx pre-transition. That's what gooseworx confirmed. Jax never transitions in the show, and even if Leeroy did at some point in the future that's not what his character arc is about.

Fuck's sake everyone's so desperate to make it all about trannies just so they can get mad about it. You're on fucking 4chan you should know what it's like to be unable to connect to people.

Kek I wonder how many of these literal actual transphobes on this site are the way they are because they're repressing themselves.
>>

He did. He's boymoding, goose confirmed that.
>>
>>154333118
i think this only applies to the ones that cut their dicks, rest only want to look like anime femboys and have sex.
>>
So Jax only developed gender issues because of his abusive mom...is that an admission that childhood abuse is the root cause of being a tranny? how has goose not been canceled yet for writing that, holy fuck.
>>
>>154337698
I know you're probably some smirking /pol/ moron thinking 'heh gottem' but I will answer regardless.

He was always transgender, him coming out to his mom is what led him to the circus, and before that why his mother would question his masculinity.
