So what about any of that screams “the Terran Empire did nothing wrong” to you? Or would you rather keep deflecting?

I wasn’t talking about you in particular, nor was I making the connection to that character when I was talking about red flags until you forcibly made it for me.
Read again. I was talking about people posting sometimes hours-long screeds in public zone chat channels in an online game about how badly they want to exterminate undesirables, that also happen to almost universally identify with the Terran Empire or Section 31 between such rants.
Because you went off into the weeds to talk about a specific character, I did happen to roll my eyes at “the mass murdering dictator is sorry and that somehow means she is okay now” argument, though it was a different topic and wasn’t even connected to what I was saying about toxic fans (and the actual topic brought up in this thread).
Spare me the catty reddit-logo smugness. It’s toxic nonsense.

Truly dazzling.
