#my first DA controversial opnion? who would have thunk it

[pondering-gales-left-orb]

Look im Not really gonna write an essay on Why anders was right specifically but all im gonna say is its very telling to me that almost all the people who think he is right and justified are people who went through war and revolutions of thier own and the people who keep harping on and on about peaceful solution are mostly those who didn't

Maybe this is too controversial to say but its very telling that the same people after seeing the atrocities comitted by the templars and the chantry standing by them (inaction about oppression is acting in favor of the opressor) and think oh but cant we talk it out? Yes lets talk to the templars and ask them to stop brutally abusing the the mages literally tranquilizing them like animals lets ask them to give up the very thing that makes them powerful lets ask them nicely to stop the very thing they invented so they can use them not only for unlimited power but also sexual abuse totally lets sit down with them that makes sense! NOT (also not to mention that Anders HAS SPENT YEARS talking and sending letters and meeting with people and non if it worked)

If Anders and justice/vengeance didn't do what they did someone else would have this civil war was gonna happen anyway regardless of who blew up this is what they tell you from the start! but he killed people inside the chantry the sisters!!! you say to me! all the mages that were wrongfully tortured and killed by templars and the chantry do thier lives matter less? so Its okay to kill mages but you draw the line at the religious abusive authority....okay keep telling on yourself

If the chantry was still an influencing factor in the war the mages would have lost and been fully enslaved point blank period. Yall forget the ability of religion to make people turn off thier brain once it takes sides people of kirkwall would have watched a mage get unfairly publicly abused and publicly killed and wouldn't bat an eye because the chantry didn't even move a finger for them. Hell andraste herself was about to wage a war before she died to free the mage slavers slaves like did you think she was gonna march in with an army and then talk over diner with the salvers? Bffr

Also considering that King Alistair does the same exact thing and gives the mages thier freedom anyway and thats fine but when it comes to the kirkwall mages its all "but who will stop them from becoming bloodmages but who will keep them in check" like king Alistair said the mages can self regulate themselves they just needed the freedom and space to do so, blood mages exsisted when they were under a tight watch of the templars anyway that alone should tell you the templars are a useless lot.

Well i guess i did write an essay lol anyway im not really interested in debating people about this so if you were gonna try to "call me out" or "prove me wrong" save your energy.
