TLOU FINALE SPOILERS
I’m wading into the hellscape that is the “Is Joel Right in the TLOU Finale” discourse as someone who hasn’t played the games so I’m basing this off the show entirely (I do plan to play the games so no game spoilers.)
I’ve seen a lot of people argue that the Firefly’s cure wouldn’t have worked or that they couldn’t have produced it but imho that argument completely misses the point.
Joel in that episode never once questions if the cure would work, he doesn’t care. The effectiveness of potential cure played literally zero role in his decision making. He could have been provided 100% certainty that the cure would work completely and the apocalypse would end and he would have made the exact same decision as we saw him make.
In my view he did what he did knowing he was dooming the world but it was worth it to save Ellie.
And before you get me wrong, I completely understand where Joel was coming from!! I just think the potential effectiveness of the Firefly’s cure is irrelevant to ethical discussions of Joel’s actions.
