#I'm really sorry but I'm not about to excuse genocide for any reason lmaooo

[rius-cave]

This comic this artist made is making me go crazy because it just shows how Adam was never the villain! Like they make it seem like him killing sinners is a bad thing...like hello!? Sinners?! You mean the people who did down right horrible terrible things that they CHOSE to do by free will and ended down in hell by their own actions. But Adam is the bad guy for killing the r*pist and abusers? Adam? The guy who probably wasn't always like this, but has been jaded by the evil of man kind caused by Lucifer? Lucifer, the guy that was so selfish about wanting HIS vision for what mankind should be. Leading all humankind to it's down fall? Now his kid is trying to get these horrible people into heaven where they'll most definitely run into their victims again, and their victims have to now live eternity with them?

And sure, Adam is not 1000% perfect, and I'm sure some people in hell are not just plain evil like angel dust or nifty. But Adam is the asshole? Please.

I love hazbin, but there's a lot of things they need to address in season 2.

Okay anon, I definitely think you're missing the point a little bit lolol

Yes, it's definitely a little more nuanced than just "Adam bad, people in Hell good", but let's not go and boil it down to "Adam hero, sinners awful" either lmao.

We're talking about the guy that's completely okay with killing children, with punishing people, the guy who just ENJOYS killing. I love Adam, I really do, but he is literally committing genocide.

Listen, I'm not about to come here and lecture any of you on whether or not it is moral to kill bad people or not, especially when the alternative is making them better people. Like we know, Hazbin's theme is about redemption, in believing that people who once did bad things can be better. This is an important message for the show, and I'd argue it should be something that we believe in too, at least for most people. I'm someone who also believes in redemption, in people genuinely seeing the error of their ways and being better in the future.

But even if you believe that all criminals should die or that we should genocide prisons as well, the show is kind of... Very clear that a good number of the people in Hell are NOT that. It's more complicated, it's not just black and white, it's not just sinners and winners. They're all human souls who made mistakes, and maybe some of them genuinely want to do better, or they COULD if someone gave them a chance, like Pentious and Angel.

I love Adam, and I don't think he's just completely evil either, or that the Hazbin cast are all saints or that people in Hell are GOOD people, but my boy Adam is a straight up murderer lol and the show is clear that this includes innocent people as well.
