KK4: Interactionist theory

+ in Nimona again !!

Howard Becker's interactionist theory explores how society labels or identifies deviance and how deviants are positioned or treated within society. As mentioned previously, social norms or even the concept of deviance are relative as there is nothing that is universally condemned, instead these norms are created within society. This labelling theory ties into these ideas, as it revolves around how societies or at least the people in power set social norms through their interactions with individuals considered deviant. Generally, these interactions will be based on how they are labelled as well as how deviant behavior is represented through the stigmas, symbols, and motifs associated with it. This process of labelling often results in negative effects in those labelled as deviant, as they succumb to a self-fulfilling prophecy, partaking in behavior that further reinforces their given labels. An example within modern society would be the consumption of drugs or substances, such as smoking tobacco/cigarettes. Cities often have "no smoking” signs with a large red x like symbol over a cigarette, indicating that the act of smoking is deviant to society. Additionally, smoking is considered to have major risks for one's health, which may be a factor in a self-fulfilling prophecy. Smokers may accept that they are damaging their body through smoking, and as society has already labelled them as a deviant (in being a smoker and in destroying their health/body), they may indulge in other substances or harder drugs, inevitable leading to them being unable to escape deviancy as well as the deterioration of their life. Then, people like this are used as examples by those in power, to further create the social norm against smoking and/or drug use. 

The process of labelling can be described in three steps, identifying, defining, and labelling. These can all be expressed throughout the film "Nimona", following Nimona's character. With identification, behavior or traits are first determined by whether they present as deviant or normal by the people within society, more commonly through the people in power such as the government. Things considered deviant are generally stigmatized by the public and seen as wrong or different. Within the film, the existence of monsters, or “anything different” (51:12) to humans, is considered deviant.

In this, a lack of humanity is generally viewed as dangerous and wrong, which is further supported by the Institute, as they create an alarm system against monsters as well as the depictions of monsters being slain in the media in the film.

These views or stigmas against monsters relate to the next step, defining. In this, the views against monsters are applied not to the act or concept itself, but to the people who present or express these things. They are defined as deviant, or in this case, monsters. For Nimona, the fact that she wasn't human, that she was a “monster” was considered deviant, and society then began to fear or hate her for this, including those had once considered close to her.

Not only is the existence of monsters being described as deviant, but the people who are labelled as monsters are too, as people like Nimona are considered bad or wrong. This leads to the next step of labelling, where those considered deviant are reduced to how society perceives or more labels them. In this, people like Nimona are only ever viewed as deviants or monsters, they are unable to be seen as anything more than these stigmas, labels, or assumptions, that "no matter what" they do, they "can't change the way people see” them (52:04).  

This final stage of the labelling process commonly results in secondary deviance or a self-fulfilling prophecy. In this, those considered deviant start embodying their labels or resonating with them. They can't escape the perception of others, so they instead choose to double down on their deviance, often engaging in further acts that may even have more serious consequences. These effects of labelling are again expressed with Nimona, as after she faces the judgement and criticism of society, she starts to engage in increasingly deviant or even criminal behavior. She first decides to forgo trying to conform or fit in with her appearance as she dyes her hair pink which within “Nimona” is extremely deviant, seeing that no other characters in this world have non-natural hair colours. To further deviate from the norm, she shaves the sides of her head and as well as dressing in a punk like style rather than traditional clothing, she has multiple ear piercings and a facial piercing.

These changes to her appearance express her lack of attempts to conform, that she is no longer hiding or pretending to be anything other than how people view her, someone who is “different”. Nimona also has violent and criminal tendencies, as she graffities on walls, destroys noble properties, and gets into many brawls with the authorities.

This behavior she exhibits is a result of the label that the Institute and the citizens have given her. She feels that she is pushed into a corner with no other choice, seeing that no attempts will ever change the fact that society deems her wrong, saying that “they only see you one way, no matter how hard you try.” (14:35)  

This pressure and stigma that comes with the label forced upon her has other negative effects, a key one being its major impact on her mental health and wellbeing. She often struggles with suicidal thoughts/ideations, saying that she thinks of giving in to the people who hunt her down, and at the climax of the film, she attempts to take her own life as she is unable to cope with the hatred and judgement she faces being a “monster”. To make things worse, she had no support system to help her (before she met Ballister), as the people have outcasted her for her deviancy.  

Nimona’s character is a tragedy, a representation of the harm that labelling can cause. She expresses an all too true story, one that happens commonly in the modern world. People who are labeled as deviant will inevitably also be defined or given all the stigmas or assumptions that come with this label. They are set up to fail, as often all their attempts to change how they are seen make no difference. Yes, criminal acts and major violations of social norms should not be tolerated, but in less serious cases, the labeling and defining of people who engage in deviancy often causes majorly negative effects, further showing how bad it can get and why it shouldn't be as common as it is. Labeling should stop at the act; it shouldn't continue to the people. It's one thing to say smoking is bad than to say smokers are bad people. Yes, it may work to prevent negative deviance and keep the government in power, but it certainly isn’t in a way that supports people who are deemed deviant.

Allow me to re-introduce myself

The year was 2017, a certain Orange Mussolini wannabe was president, and on TV there was this show on the CW about a Twin Peaks-style murder mystery in the Archie comics universe. You would think everyone’s favorite red-headed golden boy would propel the show but alas, no…..instead was the red-hot romance between his supposedly lowly best friend and the girl next door that catapulted the show to the stratosphere. Cue the next few seasons when “lowly” (and im being facetious) friend became leader of the local MC with his (on/off) blonde lady at his side. The optimist in me decides to fully return to tumblr and change my name in honor of their “potential union” plus the fact that they were together IRL (I forgot what my old account used to be lol). Another year or so goes by, I end up ditching said show late season 4, and blah blah blah I’m all about Cobra Kai.

bUt wHy DiDnT yOu cHaNgE yOuR nAmE? Cuz I’m lazy, duh!

But fear not, because in the CK verse, the ships are a sailing! Which is ironic given the shows supposed to be a “male” oriented action comedy. However, my favorite ship, and the reason I chose to keep my name is….

Keenry! Or Tobby, Robchols, whatever….

These two are the bad-guys turning into anti-heroes that I like to root for. Plus they’re darned hot. So there you have it, as I’m not much of the writer, and my thumbs hurt. More on why I left the ‘Dale/Vale in another post. Let’s do this folks, No Mercy!

labyrinth for Kyle and Yuuki! ☺️

Thanks for the ask, anon! 💕

🎯 labyrinth : what are your ocs’ biggest “uh-oh” moments in your wip?

Kyle -- in KK4, Kyle gets badly spooked. Due to past trauma, he reacts to this spook with an exaggerated startle reflex which accidentally ends up injuring Yuuki. Kyle had already been feeling on edge, but after this he feels unsafe and utterly terrified.

Yuuki -- has a big screw up moment in KK5. He fails to notice a security issue, and gets distracted by things happening with Kyle. These moments of incompetence all lead to him indirectly compromising palace security and safety.

My wip at the moment is mainly KK4 (Kindall K #4), but I'm also working on KK5 and KK6 at the same time.

Both of these scenes (and the string of scenes associated with them) are part of my favourite parts of the wip planning :3 ✨
