so from a jewish point of you catra has done enough to be redeemed? doubt it. she murdered a person, that's dumb, she deserves punishment in ANY religion.
why are you bringing me being jewish into this, my friend? or are you just antisemitic? this debate has nothing to do with religion whatsoever - the only way it ties in is through subverting the typical idea of a christian redemption arc, because the christian idea of redemption is inherently flawed and if you INSIST on direct punishment being the only way for someone to be redeemed, then glimmer should be punished too, because she attempted to destroy the planet and detonate the heart. scorpia should be punished for her part in the war. entrapta should be punished for her part in the war, as well. so should hordak - heās killed thousands more people than catra has (and she didnāt even kill angella in the first place, so please actually watch the show before you pull takes out of your ass), as well as headed a war for decades and kidnapped and raised children as soldiers.
and as iāve said above, catra didnāt kill angella, because angella isnāt dead. itās been stated multiple times, both throughout the show and by the crew, that angella did not die in the portal, and that, if the length of the show allowed for it, they would have brought her back. if you want another point on top of that, as a direct result of opening the portal, catra:
1) dies
2) dies again
3) is kidnapped by an intergalactic warlord and chipped, electrocuted, and killed
you want her to be... punished... more? because that will suddenly make amends? because catra being punished is going to fix everything suddenly? because catra shouldnāt get to grow as a person and heal and get to fix her mistakes, i guess? how is making catra suffer again for something we KNOW she constantly thinks about going to help?
because by that logic, glimmer should be punished too. entrapta should be punished too. scorpia should be punished too. hordak should be punished too. hell, so should lonnie, kyle, and rogelio. so shouldĀ
punishment is normally carried out to prevent someone from doing the same action again. so what is that going to do? how is that going to help? how is that going toĀ āmake catra a better personā?Ā āhehe just so she doesnāt go pulling any levers againā
i have more to add, but i also have 0 spoons because reading this ask genuinely made me lose like 10 braincells
