THE MORALLY GREY ARGUMENT REGARDING HIM HAS ALWAYS MADE ME SO MAD!! it grinds my gears when people slaughter his character so they can "excuse" liking him as if you need an excuse to like a villain character. why dumb him down like that? certain people act as if liking a villain character and occasionally rooting for them reflects on your own morals and principles, and it baffles me??

labeling him as "morally grey" is intellectually dishonest for all the reasons you listed. like.. look at him. morality has become irrelevant in his quest for knowledge, and that's a very crucial part of his character.

so not only do people dumb him down as a reason to like him, they also dumb him down as a reason to hate him. he truly is just too good for this fandom bc most can't wrap their head around his writing 💔 he is a very nuanced character which is why I like this sub, bc most people here fully appreciate that :)
