I want people who instantly go on attack mode and start patronising or insulting others for critiquing fictional characters or shows to stop calling themselves "passionate". You're not passionate, you're obsessed. And that will never be a good thing, a childish thing maybe, but never good.

"Please Christian Grey? And I realise, in that moment, that yes, that's exactly what I want to do."

I find it really hilarious when I see various stans across fandoms get so aggro and make strawmen out of other people's criticism of their fav character in order to not engage with the actual argument. They act like it's a winning strategy, but it's just the final nail in the coffin for any critical thinking.

Ultimately, you can't, nor should you, try to 'morally' justify the optics of characters taking part in abuse or tolerating/promoting/enabling imperialism, fascism and slavery, and you don't even need to. You can just enjoy the characters, love every sassy one-liner or flashback sob story they have, but your favs are not just 'misunderstood good guys' to everyone when that's on their ticket. You can't erase the (pretty major Jupiter-size) flaws people find in your characters just because you're too weak to admit the characters you like would likely be pretty shitty people in real life based on their actions.
