“The concept of portraying evil and then destroying it - I know this is considered mainstream, but I think it is rotten. This idea that whenever something evil happens someone particular can be blamed and punished for it, in life and in politics, is hopeless.”
—Hayao Miyazaki
One of my very favourite recurring themes in Miyazaki’s work - especially in Spirited Away - is how the grotesque and initially threatening reveals itself to be benign and even compassionate. It’s so beautiful, and a lot more meaningful than the typical good-evil/black-white dichotomy of other mythology.

Blatantly means he’s forgotten to think of a way to resolve Reichenbach.

So true never thought about that.

And it gives the notion that other forms of work, (especially menial jobs that require too much effort and barely get people by) also don’t require you to use your body as an expendable resource for survival, essentially “selling your body” in the same regard. You can have your own personal feelings about sex work and whether or not you would enter the field, but referring to it as the “selling of one’s body” while holding other forms of work in a higher regard is nonsensical and blatant sex-shaming.

It really is totally ridiculous. I’m not selling my body to anyone; I’m an independent contractor providing professional services.
