I think it's a little crazy I've seen nobody in the fandom back then mention how lowkey kind of scary Patton's breakdown was in SVSR. Sure there's a lot of jokes and references to cut the tension there but when you think about it and also listen to what Patton is saying, it's genuinely kind of scary especially coming from someone like him.
"I don't know the right answer here, it's up to you !" THE WAY HE SAYS THAT LINE LIKE PATTON CHILL.
It kind of reminded me of Steven Universe Future and Steven's breakdown funnily enough (time isn't real so I don't know if that happened before or after the episode came out).
Anyways, this scene imo kinda puts into question the dark side's status as being dangerous because if PATTON did this then wouldn't it be unfair to seperate the dark sides so strongly ?
Kinda tired so maybe I'll get into more later but it makes me sad this fandom just has never really analysed Patton more deeply outside of just making him evil for no reason. He's a complex man ! He's got his layers !
