@moozooh Best comment hands down. No ranting, just calm statements on the core theme of the story.
Sure, there's a certain catharsis to supporting a character lashing out at the world, as Eren is doing. But what kind of world will be left, if this sort of destructive, short-sighted, self-assuaging rage is permitted on such a scale?
The resistance to Eren's plan is less about them being kumbaya/morally higher as most people have taken it and more about "this isn't what we want to be as a species."
I don't know about a lotta these readers, but I wouldn't want to live in a world where this sort of mass extinction was carried out on my behalf, regardless of what I'd experienced that would appear to justify it.
Passing comment, but that magazine cover was... Hmm.
