      Okay look this person is not that great a writer, and so they may not really mean what they're saying But what they're saying is incredibly dangerous If you believe ANYBODY is NOT CAPABLE of evil, you are obviously wrong, and that belief is going to get somebody hurt https://twitter.com/Polygon/status/1290338042822242304 …pic.twitter.com/zmbRYRQ9ML

      the basic point here seems very clear to me, that morally gray stories often depend on an understanding of good and evil as being basically no different. it’s not about how good people can’t do anything bad, it’s about how these stories frame good and evil as indistinguishable.

      I disagree with that premise and consider it to be a strawman If "morally gray" means "reveling in nihilism" then I think it doesn't exist and you're just reaching in an exaggerated way to slam works you don't like

      This is my same rant about "hopepunk" "Hopepunk" advertises itself as a "cure to grimdark" because it IS grimdark and it is strawmanning other grimdark works There is no non-hopepunk grimdark WH40K, by the definition of hopepunk, is hopepunk

      Like I agree that Bioshock Infinite sucks I don't think anybody would actually disagree with this critique at this point, "Fitzroy and Comstock are the same" is a take so cold your tongue gets stuck on it when you say it

      But the *reason* Bioshock Infinite sucks ABSOLUTELY IS NOT "Booker and/or the unseen narrator judging Booker's actions thinks right and wrong do not exist, good and evil are the same, and nothing matters" It's the fucking opposite of that

      The unseen moral judge has a VERY STRONG moral belief, and that moral belief is that all violence and destruction is evil -- so evil that those who engage in it are beyond redemption And by contrast, those who have not engaged in it are fundamentally pure

      That's very clearly their moral framing, and I think it's a bad one I think they think so too, and I think the angst -- the "moral grayness" -- is from their confrontation with the fact that this morality can't possibly work, violence is inevitable

      It may, in the end, function to enable quietism and defeatism and all that shit, it may lead one to conclude the most moral action is to do nothing and allow oppression to continue That is not the same thing as saying it's pure moral nihilism

          And it's important to separate that, because if you don't get that's what they're actually saying you'll end up saying the same shit yourself Like, you understand that the mindset of Bioshock Infinite is THE SAME as the moral system of Undertale

          In Undertale, you're Daisy Fitzroy -- you're not the aggressor, you're the victim, you've been imprisoned against your will for selfish reasons by people you owe nothing to
