absentlyabbie:hundredgifs:So you’re the one that killed 300 of my warriors.#i need this show to begin focusing more on the complex social politics#between the Grounders and the Ark#it’s about time they began humanising the Grounders#and depicting them as something other than savage#as something not ‘Other’#which is where they’re still kind of floating in the narrative#it’s wrong#this is now a story that takes place wholly on Earth#and the Grounders deserve a story that focuses on the society they created while they survived on Earth#i want to see their societies and their cultures#i want to the story to develop more around the Ark adapting to life on the ground WITH the grounders instead of against them#and to do that we need to learn more about the Grounders#instead of relegating them to the role of the savage#i want the show to rise above the typical racist narrative of Savage v Conquerer (open-pandoras-box) -- source link
