I don’t get the message here tbh. Mr. Pritchard’s appears to be anti-establishment. You aren’t abnormal, you are special. The school wants to turn you into a drone, think your own mind, dance to your own music and you can be your best self and oppose the established norms that want to bring you down, that sort of thing.
Now Carla and Miles want to get him away from that for reasons that still aren’t very clear to me, but they aren’t pro establishment. They are also anti-establishment but in a way that will not foster Kevin’s talents, nor help him feel confident, but instead plays into his vices. They want to turn him back into the candy and video games obsessed kid who is bad at school and pretends not to care and instead goofs off because he is a lost cause anyway.
Why is this the side the comic wants us to root for? And why is Carla and Miles’ goal to tear Kevin back down?
