one little pet peeve I have with media is when they don't give any weight to killing people and just go '...yes?' when people ask 'hey is it OK to kill our enemies?' as if it's not a difficult moral question

#personal crap #this is about of all things the toh finale #I've tried to keep quiet about this for like 18 months so hopefully no one will come after me for this #but since i just saw someone call it an s tier finale... I'm sorry but to me it's a c tier at best #i just hate how lightly they took killing belos #i don't mind that they didn't redeem him or even that they killed him #i mind that they treated killing him as something completely ethically above board and something you shouldn't have any pause about #like luz basically does the doctor's 'do i have the right' bit from genesis of the daleks and they go 'are you fucking stupid? yes!'#i think telling a 12 year old to kill someone should be handled a bit more gracefully yk?#and the worst part is i swear no one agrees with me they act like it's more unreasonable #that (say) aang and steven react to being told to kill their enemies by going 'what the fuck? no!'#once again: I'm not saying they should've redeemed belos #I'm saying they shouldn't have excitedly rushed into murdering him #if they'd handled it in more of a 'it didn't have to be this way' way like with shadow weaver or simon in infinity train #I'd have been ok with it #but it just felt mean spirited af to me
