Hijacking my own post with a repost to make it more specific to a fandom:

I saw someone saying that anyone who likes Hoffman needs to be tested on their media literacy and that there's a difference between liking/defending (they put the two in the same category) a character and appreciating their role in the story. I really don't want to be too mean because I don't want that person to feel bad if they see this post but that's genuinely such a bad take.

You can like a character who's a bad person. The point of saw is that 90% of the characters are bad people in some way. That doesn't automatically mean you're defending their actions. They also said how people say that his trauma with his sister should be talked about more but that's not a valid reason to defend his actions??? I've never seen anyone say that it is. We're just saying that there's more to his character. There's a reason for his murder. AND THAT'S NOT DEFENDING IT. It's just explaining why he did it.

They also said that people who defend Hoffman hate Jill and gloss over her trauma which. Yeah, it sucks how Jill is often glossed over. BUT, you're allowed to like one character and dislike another as long as you're not rude about it. I say this as a Jill fan.

You can hate a character without bastardizing them. There's more to Hoffman than just heartless murder (at least until 3D fucked up his character) (and even then I don't really think it was fully heartless), and saying that is not defending his actions. No one needs to be tested on their media literacy because they like a fictional character who's a bad person.

Too many people confuse liking a character with defending/supporting their actions. You can like characters who are bad people. That doesn't mean you support their actions. If you had to support the actions of every character you like, there'd be pretty much no likeable characters.

Also explaining why a character did something is not the same as defending it.

There was a character in a book I read once who was described as "handsomely fat" and that phrase is stuck in my brain forever. The author really was like "no shut up, they're charismatic, they're good-looking, they're handsomely fat. not just handsome AND fat; them being fat is directly contributing to their good looks. you agree." and they were RIGHT

the thing that bothers me with 7 deadly sin based characters is when they cant decide if they embody the sin by suffering from it or by drawing it out of others. ie. if your gluttony demon is a guy who loves eating then your lust demon should be a gooner sex pest. and if your lust demon is a seductive girlboss then your gluttony demon should be a 5 star chef. does this make sense.

What if Lawrence had just taken the five seconds to check Diana's closet. What if he wanted to prove to his daughter that there are no monsters, and no bad men lurking behind that closed door. Would Zep have panicked and just shot and killed him right there, and then done the same to Alison and Diana. Would Adam, waiting around for his latest photo subject to leave his home to go cheat or whatever, hear those distant pops. Would he have maybe caught a glimpse of an extremely frazzled dude speed walking out of the building, frantically looking over his shoulders again and again. Would Tapp have been watching from the window in that moment, and immediately made his way over to the Gordon's place, only to find still warm corpses.

Would the police arrive shortly thereafter, see Tapp standing within the home, gun on his person, and implicate him in the brutal execution of a mother, father, and young daughter. Would an eventual investigation of Tapp's place only further incriminate him, with the overwhelming amount of evidence regarding his obsession with the doctor. Would Adam, Lawrence being a no show and all, have had the patience to stick around outside long enough to see the police, or would their sudden arrival have scared him off. Would he have gone straight back home that night, deciding to just try to get more photos tomorrow. Would Zep, not knowing where else to go or what to do about the poison in his body, drove to the bathroom far earlier than he was instructed to. Would he find John lurking around town there, and desperately plea for his life. Would Amanda already be laying in wait in Adam's apartment. Would John call her off, after learning the only important player of his game is dead. After all, what else can you do when the game has just barely started, and your main piece has already been taken out?

Would Adam wake up that next day, and eventually catch wind of absolutely bewildering news: prominent oncologist and family found murdered in home, discharged detective suspected in the brutal killings. What would he have felt when the news showed pictures of the apartment. When they showed a small handful of happy family pictures of the victims, and pictures of the suspect. What would he have felt upon seeing some familiar faces staring back at him. Would he have quickly destroyed any photos he had taken for 'Bob', not wanting to have anything to do with any of this. Would Zep have still died down in that bathroom, albeit slowly and painfully this time, his pleas for a cure ignored. Would Adam still be in John's radar, and get tested at some point- or would he go on living his apathetic little life, all but forgetting about the events of that night within a month or two, moving onto another sleazy shitbag to take damning pictures of.

What if Lawrence had just checked taken the five seconds to check that closet .
