Ok not to be weird about it but the Eye liking adulthood fears more than children’s fears proves that the Eye is a weak idiot with no taste or imagination Kids’ fears? Bonkers as hell. Children are creating neural pathways as they go, which means that they draw connections adults would never dream of. Grown adults are neurotic, fine, whatever. We have anxieties and phobias and a general miasma of existential dread, but kids? Kids can attach symbolic meaning to anything, and they’re doing it in relative isolation without a connection to society at large apart from a small pool of other children and children’s media. Which means that the stories they concoct will often be unique in comparison to adults, who have less plastic neural pathways and also are more likely to have set, shared ideas about what’s meant to be scary and what isn’t. 
What children might lack in complexity (which, come on--kids are far more capable of coming up with complex ideas and having layered experiences than people give them credit for) they more than make up for in intensity and creativity. Children’s ability to feel is intense, both for biological reasons and because they don’t have all the tools adults have for managing (and repressing) emotions. No wonder the Eye picked Jonathan “What’s even the point of poetry” Sims and Jonah “I find budget paperwork thrilling” Magnus. It’s not just a snob, it’s a snob for the boring shit. 
The Eye is like That Guy in a film class who turns in black and white shots of buildings and like.... women with bad haircuts smoking while staring off into the distance. And then tells you you just don’t get film when you try to make something with a plot. The Eye refuses to listen to music in languages it understands because anything that conveys direct meaning is too plebian for it. The Eye doesn’t read comics--it only reads graphic novels.
Hey, big scary eldritch abomination--you like cults? If there’s one thing elementary school aged kids can do, it’s make little cults. When I was at summer camp one year we decided to worship mushrooms, you can’t tell me the corruption wouldn’t have a field day with that. You like terror of isolation? Children’s experience of loneliness is intense as hell, and separation anxiety is a serious thing. You like random acts of violence? A bunch of younger kids tied me to a tree once, just because they could. It wasn’t bullying, there wasn’t a grudge attached, they just thought that would be fun (I didn’t.) 
It occurs to me that I’m describing children’s trauma to an eldritch abomination like I’m trying to sell it a used car, but the point stands. It’s not that I think more children should be tortured for the enjoyment/nourishment of a horrible fear-god--I just think that if they’re going to be tortured about it anyway, the least said god could do is be a little more appreciative.

When I was younger.
Isolated
Victim, Noun. A person harmed, injured, or killed as a result of a crime, accident, or other event or action. The word originated from Latin - victima.
Falsehood, Noun The state of being untrue, a lie.
When I was thirteen years old I was schooled in an all-boys high school. Optimism filled my soul and I was much more eager to learn that all the other classmates. I had a dedicated motivation in my heart to learn mathematics and digital studies in the hopes to learn to code and make video games. I was Naive, but that was the motivation pushing me forward in learning. I selectively isolated myself so I could listen and get work done with no hassle. The first couple of days were all right, but I (for some reason I can't remember) was moved to another group class. I didn't mind much and got along fine with the boys in there, there wasn't an issue. I got through the year and did... all right to say the least.
Trouble for me started around year ten, though I don't remember how. It all just seemed out of the blue and unexpected. My naive attitude was something to make fun of with harassment and bullying, one kid burnt the back of my head with a lighter when I was dozing off in a chair. When I asked about why they targetted me, they couldn't give me an answer, it usually resorted to something stupid like "you're gay" or something like that, the people that I thought were my friends ended up wanting to hurt me more than the people bulling me. Threats about breaking my teeth and bashing me into the ground I thought were just boyish jokes - but when the look in their eye told me they were serious I moved desks and away from everyone.
The first time I ever got hurt was during a game of bullrush. The aim is to run from one side of the field to the other and not get tackled. One classmate grabbed my arm and slammed me into the ground - he friendly to me before so whether it was intentional or not I do not know. The inside of my lip was cut from the braces, my nose was broken and sore, and I was bleeding with dry grass in my mouth. After going to the medbay, my parents just picked me up - I didn't get any apology and things started spiraling down from there.
I started becoming depressed and took a lot of days off school. When I came back, no one was happy. I never thought about hurting myself because most people at the school did that for me. I escaped in literature and video games. I spent most of my nights playing Skyrim to have an empty feeling of someone thanking me for helping them. I felt isolated and removed from everyone at the school. The guidance counselor helped me in some instances but talking about it didn't really clear up the horrible emotions I had boiling in the pit of my stomach, the only thing that ever made me happy genuinely was just playing video games, saving the world from dragons and NPC's thanking me for it.
I went back to school one day and I punched a taller kid who was picking on me in the face, he punched me in the throat and knocked me to the ground. I still remember the cold floor and the laughing. By god the laughing. I pitifully got myself off that floor and the teacher hushed me and the taller kid out to the teacher's office. I was a blubbering mess, to be honest.
Before the year ended, my parents thought the best thing and had me change schools, I was more than happy. Albeit the first few months were a bloody mess with me not able to talk in conversations like a functioning person. But before December I had a small group of friends, and then I didn't because of some bullshit. But It all resolved itself.
I'm in year 12 now, things have been smooth sailing so far, a couple of bumps but I manage to make it decently. When I met a couple of people from my previous school and politely asked why they still didn't give me an answer. And at that point, a thought dawned on me, its a mob.
To give a clear example of how the mob works it goes as followed.
I had a friend I made in primary school and for a while, we still hang out, he then starts to group with some people who are a "group" and I see him less and less. When I don't see him anymore and he doesn't want to talk to me and repeats things that the group says to me, he isn't my friend anymore. He's become part of the mob.
The mob has a ringleader, the instigator, Typically its the baddest egg of the group, the one who disrupts the class and openly tells the teacher to go fuck themselves. They have an opinion and everyone just agrees with it. And anyone who doesn't fit a quota of the ringleader deserves shit. Again I will say that I don't remember what I said, or did to provoke them, but as it stands they won't listen. When someone holds power, the gullible will follow.
Today, a mob mentality seems to be the norm in society. fitting into a more - If you're not with us you're against us. Sort of thing. And its the young adults of this society and to an extent, even the adults. A toxicity of racism, sexism, Phobias, and regression in the minds and words of the grown-ups who are "Mature".
I'm not particularly good with politics. But where I stand on in the belief of life, some people will call me a bigot, and the ones that did didn't give me a good reason other than I hurt their feelings or because it "didn't work with them".
Where I stand on most things is this: Feminism (currently) is nothing more than a label for angry women to wear. To Blame and harass men for being men; manspreading, mansplaining, man everything. Not fighting for the rights of literal oppressed women in middle eastern countries, and generally just complaining about Men.
Racism is now a power structure where, if you're white you've got a silver spoon in your mouth. Being white is in itself an act of racism because a long time ago there were slave owners who were white. It seems encouraged to call white people racist or white supremacist for sampling having a color of skin.
LGBT+ has only gotten more neurotic with the word of gender being a simple thing, to a complex and unending meaning with new genders and definitions for those genders. Paranoia grows when a common person asks about when does this ludicrous spectrum end, and it goes far to say that the normal and hetro are somewhat afraid of these far-fetched definitions and thus they must another thing to openly and actively hate against.
So here I stand. A white middle-class male, an enemy of groups of people that have never met me and hate me for the things that I am. And to be honest - I can't hate them, I can't hold any anger or be spiteful towards these groups. I can criticize them as they can criticize me if they wish. But to genuinely be angry and want to see them hurt I can't. I still have the benefit of a doubt that any stranger on the street will be genuine to me if I am to them. Kindness goes far and opinions of normal politics shouldn't dictate how you treat people. Both the left and right have problems and if we can't meet in the middle and talk about these problems like mature grown-ups, then let god burn down the buildings until we learn how to work together.
You don't have to be friends with everyone, but you can be tolerant and not be a pitiful person like I was.
Here is my final note, If you really are oppressed, then you wouldn't be reading this.
