people always talk about evil clones like oooh a dark mirror oohh what if you saw what are cruel person you were/are capable of becoming. and well yes but what if you were the evil clone. what if you looked in the mirror and what you saw was so bright it blinded you. what if you had to know exactly how good you could have been.

Canonically, Zim is an absolute monster.

He is cruel, narcissistic, delusional, and incompetent. He is responsible for many deaths both accidental and purposeful and even other Irkens rightfully consider him a terror and an embarrassment. His situation, sent to a distant planet to die alone, is a light sentence in the face of his crimes and were it not too dangerous to bring this walking explosion before the Control Brains he would have been executed years ago.

You absolutely should not feel sorry for him.

But, at the same time... there is something deeply tragic about Zim.

He is a pathetic little thing, paranoid and prone to depression. He is an outsider from every angle, desperate for approval from people who hate him, his only companions being broken robots and a nemesis hellbent on his dissection. He is so deep within his own constructed reality that he can't even see the indignity that is his life.

Could things have been different for him? Is he just broken, a faulty line of code that became a virus? Or is he the product of his environment, all the empire's ideals collected into one body and shown for the flaws they truly are? My guess is both.

There is no redemption nor forgiveness for a creature like Zim, but could there at least be closure? Could there?

You absolutely should not feel sorry for him, but you cant help it.

this started as a joke but then i started actually thinking about it and now im really annoyed that IDs have this one letter that doesnt mean anything for cis people and is a huge pain in the ass for trans people when we could instead have literally lifesaving information so emergency medical services could just check ur wallet to see which blood to give you so you dont die or whatever But No
