Genuinely "love" how Maripologists desperately makeup things in order to downplay Marinette's actions.
Especially with how it does not take that much effort to instantly destroy all of their arguments.
Werepapas aka the episode Marinette unnecessarily risk permanently killing Adrien
Maripologists LOOVVVE to pretend Marinette had no choice in the matter, how she did "everything" to convince Ringmaster to willingly break free and how she knew Adrien would be ok... Despite the fact that Marinette barely tried to talk akuma down in comparison to literally any other akuma in the series. How she ignored her resources, aka Felix and Rose, who could have been immensely helpful here!
Felix: Not only is he the current leading expert on sentimonsters thanks to his kwami being the literal thing that creates them but Marinette literally has him on speed dial! We've seen throughout the series that the miraculous possess a communication feature both text and verbal, meaning they could have literally had Marinette signal him with her miraculous and then text/call him on what to do!
Rose: the girl who's power is literally the perfect tool in a hostage situation... do I need to say more?
Also to say Marinette knew Adrien would have been okay if she broke his amok is a massive lie, the scene had her immediately hesitate before bringing her yoyo down on it, meanwhile, the aftermatch had her show genuine relief that Adrien was ok. Making it perfectly clear that she, in that moment had no idea that would have worked!
Marinette breaking Sublime's prosthetics.
Maripologists constantly attempt to downplay Marinette's role here either by trying to claim nonexistent factors or by giving an outlandish claim to downplay her actions..... Despite the fact that the show itself has made it bluntly clear that this was entirely Marinette's fault! If she didn't soap up the entire floor and then proceeding too jump directly in front of Sublime as Ladybug while she was in the midst of running, none of this would ever happened!
"Oh but Marinette didn't mean to break her legs, it was an honest mistake! that makes it ok!" Newsflash, just because you don't means for something to happen doesn't mean it's okay or that the person you wrong is supposed to forgive you, especially when your actions direct affect them!
Sublime not only got hurt but literally lost her sponsor because of Marinette! Something she was working hard for! And before one of you says; "Oh b-but Bob Roth w-was a horrible person anyways! And she got a new sponsor so it doesn't matter!" Need I point out the fact that her getting a new sponsor almost instantly was incredibly lucky and that said sponsor was TOMOE TSURUGI who is so much worse then the greedy bastard that is Roth. Oh and Sublime getting a new sponsor still doesn't excuse Marinette here!
Though that said, can I say I'm actually thankful the writers decided to make Sublime forgive Marinette despite having every right to either never want to talk to her again or justifiably sue her? Cause I know for a fact that Maripologists would absolutely be salting Sublime to hell and back like they do with every character that doesn't automatically blindly support Marinette for her atrocious behavior or instantly forgive her.
Marinette's stealing
While somewhat uncommon I have occasionally seen Maripologists try to excuse or justify Marinette's stealing and by either claiming "She returned it, so that means it's ok!' Or by blaming it on the akuma of the day... which last I checked CopyCat didn't hold Marinette at gun point to break into Adrien's locker and steal his phone. Also just because she returns what she stole doesn't magically erase the fact that she stole it in the first place.
Marinette's stalking behavior
Maripologists love to deny the fact that she is absolutely a stalker and will use the utter retcon that is Derision as an excuse for it, despite the fact that Chat Blanc and the shanghai special exits and that the former is an example of behavior that retcon doesn't cover.
Chat Blanc: the episode where Marinette the moment she was alone in Adrien's room instantly starts touching all of his belongings and even going as far as to sniff what she believed to be his pillow, it was Plagg's but point still stands as she didn't and couldn't have known that. Literally none of this was behavior excused in the slightest by Derision or even undone by the rest of the episode. Now, to be fair, I will give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that they forgot the fact that Marinette did all of this, I sure as hell try to due to how flat out creepy this was.
Shanghai: the special where Marinette lied without any shred of guilt to her parents in order to stalk Adrien to another country, and I specify without guilt here due to the fact that she showed zero shame for her actions even after they told her how they've been saving money since she was born for her to go shanghai in order to connect with her roots.
