Quote:I see hexenbiest as consisting of two things. What they are and what they can do. No matter what you do to them they will always be a hexenbiest.
Interesting. In posting the quote above, I deliberately removed the poster's name because it is a sentiment several among you have echoed over the past seasons. So i am not singling out the originator, rather I am focusing on the implications of the comment.
So the first element to consider is that to some it appears that a Hexenbeist has a nature that cannot be altered.
But then comes another element to consider. Others, notably Hexenadler, have championed the idea that Grimm is ultimately a show about redemption. Witness we have Monroe, another wesen, who was able to subdue his essence. And the ever lovely Rosalee who appears to have reformed on several different levels.
The last, and most telling element is the writers have mentioned parallels between Grimm and current events.
So here is he actual question of this thread. Given the 3 elements above, I just wonder how some would feel if we substituted the word Muslim for Hexenbeist in conversations? Would the same people still concur with their stated sentiments or would they suddenly disagree?
More, given the writers have acknowledged the deliberate parallel with current events, what is their message ultimately going to be?
Things that make you go hmmm...
Oxford commas are so totally rad!.
