@Merc @hijabicatgirl the pale king literally fuarrrks everyone over bc of his colonial masterplan . hallownest was in harmony , he had to colonize it (pale king btw) . its a VERY anti tyrannical and strongly anarchic theme that drives the story , as is made evident by the variety present in hallownest and the death left behind by colonialism and patriarchy . this is the theme that resonates with queer people , the criticism of the nuclear family embodied by the pale king &co , that ultimately falls apart because its based on a nothing , on emptiness , on Void
that was my essay i hope you liked it
