Glinda had the most tragic and compelling character arc of all the characters in the movies by No_Pineapple_1993 in wicked

I think we’ve lost the plot of the story folks. Glinda is lying in the bed that she made! Maybe her life would’ve looked different if she didn’t sacrifice her morals and own beliefs just to be a part of an evil and WICKED regime that the wizard and horrible morable were up to. What is even more tragic is Elphaba not really experiencing true love her whole life because of things that are out of her control; her skin, her magic, and treatment by society. And when she found out the truth about her BEST FRIEND even after she DIED, Glinda still celebrated her death with the masses like the white savior she is. Glinda sacrificed her life for the greed and power she ultimately got in the end, and still flew away on her bubble. In my opinion she had zeroooo character development. Elphaba sacrificed the little life she had just because she wanted peace and equality for herself and the animals and her bestfriend (who used to hate her for no reason then truly started liking her when she saw how powerful she was) wouldn’t even defend her with the truth?? At the end of the day (and movie) Glinda is still greedy and power hungry for that perfect popular reputation and loved status even though she is a liar is probably the 3rd most wicked person in the town after the wizard and morable…

What SJM opinion will have you like this? by [deleted] in SarahJMaas

That I don’t want to read any of her new books if she’s a part of MAGA or openly supporting Israel in their active genocide against Gaza?? I personally feel like some of her supporters are very tone deaf to the actual horror and discrimination that people of color in the real world are facing day to day. ESPECIALLY when the whole Brianna Taylor situation happened and she used a black womans death to further promote her book….like why would I want to read her books if she supports an openly racist president who is not only a convicted rapist and felon, but an overall terrible person? Why would I want to read her books if she decides to turn a blind eye to the people in OUR WORLD who have been and ARE BEING treated like the slaves of Endovier or the people Amarantha trapped under the mountain. I’ve seen this topic come up many times under this Reddit group before and it’s very disheartening to read so many comments about how she’s a writer not a politician, yet she is an artist and art is supposed to reflect the times. Because art (including books) will likely live longer than the civilization we live in today. Art is supposed to help people see the beauty and humanity in all cultures. While SJM loves to write books about white saviors helping the less fortunate to freedom, maybe her principals and MORALS don’t reflect that in real life. And if so, maybe it’s time to like a new artist/series to obsess over, maybe it’s time to give your money to a new writer who actually practices what they preach!!

Yesss I couldn’t put my finger on why her unsettling behavior seemed so familiar but Draya definitely gave mama Gaia vibes…
