No one! :D Because while I can recognize traits of myself within characters, I get none of the internal life that makes up 99% of who I am. Media also has, and is not necessarily a bad thing, but it has a tendency towards simplifying complex nuances down to easily digestible sound bytes. There’s very few pieces of media that accurately reflect anything, how could I ever expect them to accurately reflect me? Maybe in a communist society, but movie studios aren’t about to make a genuinely radical piece, and liberal attempts at understanding and portraying radicalism come off as hollow and miss the Mark literally every single time.
