the idea that pages are passive is based on nothing. Also presenting Dirk as overbearing is massively simplistic and feeds into people conflating him and AR. This all also heavily understates Jakes complicity in fucking stuff up, like how he knew for a fact that Jane liked him because Roxy told him like, twice beforehand and then lied to her about it. Or how Jake treated gayness like a bad thing at 13 and knew it prob messed with Dirks head but, again, did nothing about it.

obviously it’s way more complicated than what I said, that’s why I put  “ to say the least.” at the end
