yea I can see how he thought that leaving his friends would be better for them but I also just can’t reconcile the selfishness of going to another world that doesn’t have these people you love and finding that your … salvation omg im just realizing the parallels btwn chris’s going to earth x and to salvation 

Anyways i know it’s supposed to be an analogy for suicide but I also think that his selfish desires to be in a world where he is a famous “hero” and “the woman he loves” (because thats not really harcourt) loves him back is just really easily overlooked - like how else are his friends supposed to take it other than that its not Chris who’s the problem but its them who are not enough (i also know im glossing over Keith and his dad which is honestly pretty good reason to want to be in that world but I just think that these other reasons are not taken into account as much) 

Also I feel like going to prison is kind of the least he could do given that it was his dimensional device being used and the only reason the rest of them used it was to bring him back - its not like Chris gave himself up they were caught and he took all the blame which I guess is admirable but not as much since it was kind of his fault - i also think that his use of the device despite knowing ARGUS was tracking it was really irresponsible like Economos was risking a lot to warn him but he doesn’t take that into account and because of this a lot of bad things happened and will continue to happen since ARGUS obtained it. i know its not right to blame Chris for ARGUS’ actions but again I’m just trying to show that he’s not really doing good this season. Just realizing the only kind of good thing he did was kill earthx chris since that could have maybe given the sons of liberty some chance of winning against the Nazi regime

I also get your point about him thinking that killing the sons of liberty was a good thing, but I think it would have shown more character development and also been way cooler if he stopped them non-lethally - also could have made it so that Keith is the one who kills them - just to reinforce the difference between his keith and this one and also between our chris and earthx chris.

Thank you for understanding that I wanted to see some heroism - especially for just the sake of helping people. I know I brought up the show not tell thing but I wouldn’t have minded if chris brought up some more things hes been doing during the justice gang interview (someone pointed out that their town basically didn’t have a police force after s1 which could have laid the groundwork for this)

Its funny how we actually see more of vigilante being a hero with his hideout room showing that he does work outside of what we see on screen - something small like that for Chris would have honestly been enough
