i rly dislike how the narrative about the jiang parents has just shifted to "they're shitty parents period"... like yeah they're not the best but also asian parents who don't know how to communicate and accidentally sow conflict between siblings for acknowledgement is VERY real
i just wish ppl would explore this more instead of just brushing the jiangs aside?? they were super complicated and super interesting but anyway
anyway I've noticed this sort of thing a lot more since mdzs became more popular and im just like hhhh consider cultural nuances and a lot of asian parenting is based on the principle of tough love which is controversial but more complicated than being "bad" or "good"
ok i guess since im already dying on this hill i also hate when ppl make lqr out to be really hateful or homophobic?? like the dude practically lost his older brother to a bad relationship and was left to raise his nephews?? ofc he doesn't like wei wuxian
if u only watched the drama and know nothing about the novel don't interact lol... anyway im not here to create debate and im not interested in debating randos bc my point is that the jiangs real to a lot of people and are products of the work theyre in (wartime cultivation)
