I understand why some people think Kara killing Krem at the end invalidated what she spent the whole movie telling Ruthye—but hear me out
Krem didn't deserve to live. He was a pedophile, a murderer, and a sex trafficker
Kara Zor-El knew that he shouldn't be allowed to live bc he'd just keep doing what he was doing
But does her murdering him in place of Ruthye invalidate her teaching Ruthye "murder is wrong"?
Well, no bc i dont rlly think the message was "murder is wrong"
It was "dont let your grief and rage consume you"
If Ruthye had murdered Krem in her grief and anger it would've consumed her. Kara didnt want her to live with that. She sacrificed a part of herself to kill Krem, so Ruthye wouldn't have to be the one who did it
Yes, Krem was a piece of shit who deserved to die
But that doesn't mean the 13 yr old girl whose entirely family was murdered should've been the one to kill him. Lets not put that on her to do. She shouldn't have to. Kara knew that, its why she did it instead
