User blog comment:Michel Deus/PE Proposal: Thin Man (Come to Daddy)/@comment-1705775-20190617225235

"Come to Daddy came about while I was just hanging around my house, getting pissed and doing this crappy death metal jingle. Then it got marketed and a video was made, and this little idea that I had, which was a joke, turned into something huge. It wasn't right at all. "

this is a  quote from Aphex Twin and the first thing we read in his article, which kind of makes me feel he was a dark joke that people took too seriously.. doesn't help a PE case when the first thing we read on the article is the creator himself basically saying that the character was meant to be a joke.

also, there's moral agency issues again - it seems like Thin Man is an embodiment of evil and the video is disturbing but not too many deaths etc are actually shown.. just implied.
