asked:
So ether it was last night or the night before you mentioned in an answer I read patch Adams was somehow offensive to the people it was based on I meant to ask how but never got around to it sorry
answered:
You know the female love interest in the movie?
It is true, Adams had a friend who was murdered.
Except that friend was a male, and a very real person with his own life.
But nah, let’s replace a real person who died in a tragic way with a shitty female love interest with a tragic rape backstory.
That is really really awful.
they also make patch a complete clown. I mean, there IS evidence that his methods work but it’s more than giving an elder w gun in the middle if the night and throwing balloon animals at him.
