Snow continues to grate with how insensitive she is to the ordeal of others. Someone’s just “killed/banished” their mother to save Emma? “Oh good, we can have the wedding tomorrow”. Snow seems to get more and more self-centred with every passing season and considering she was such an integral part of season 1 with her selflessness, it’s a shame.
The Charmings in general are pretty vomitous these days (they’ve always been, in a certain way, but it’s getting worse). It used to be that if you’re some kind of anthropomorphic magical creature, the Charmings would relegate you to the “disposable beast” category with nary a second thought (Maleficient and the Medusa come to mind). But now, it’s escalated. Here’s how I imagine Snow’s dialogue to go:
Snow: “Oh, there’s a whole realm of abused children exploited for their labor in magical mines? Well, how terrible. Anyway, where were we, ah, yes, Emma, what corsage palette should we pick?”.
“*to Rumple* Oh you killed your mother? Great, thanks for taking care of that. Anyway, should we have a vegan gluten free option for the wedding cake, or should we ask the guest for their food allergies first?”
The more I watch the Handmaid’s tale, the more Snow reminds me of the commanders’ wives social class.
