Have you noticed how very... cult-like tfa autobot society is? Like I don't know how to explain it but it just feels very culty. Shunning those who defect, demonizing everyone and everything outside of their society, becoming a Pariah if you step outside of what they deem "acceptable", the manipulation tactics, and how they've controlled and rewritten history. It's almost textbook cult, like damn. Maybe the Decepticons had a point, that's not to excuse their actions, but they might've been on to something.

I'm pretty sure it's like that on purpose, both meta wise and in universe!!

#transformers #maccadam #transformers animated #and it's such an interesting situation!!!#I am biased_ I'm especially fond of thinking about the darker side of the autobot faction (whether it's baseline or shattered glass)#because in tfa especially it toes that line in an interesting way #especially looking into the history behind the autobots_ decepticons_ protectobots_ destrons_ guardians_ ect...#in tfa it seems to me like history has repeated itself several times over on this #especially ESPECIALLY when considering the stuff that starts to happen when Sentinel Magnus comes into power #and Megatron & the decepticons coming back into Cybertron's picture again after thousands of stellar cycles #🥺 it's interesting
