This was, tbqfh, the most annoying part of the film for me. I could have written this whole secret because I went from loving Poe to actively disliking him so hard, but the way he's earned previous fallout for similar mutinous actions, and does it again, and this time the consequences are a 1000000x worse but now he gets away with it free and clear? I have never wanted to flip a table so much. I don't think he's evil (yet) but a lot of villains have a sad story where they fell down a slippery slope paved with good intentions.

He gets away from it because, he's not responsible for it. The problem is that people think he was responsible for it, and the cognitive dissonance arising from that impression, not the fact that he gets away with it.

Obviously, that's still the movie's fault that people got that incorrect impression, but I'm also like 99% sure that's what the movie was going for.

It's not even the deaths that he should have been held responsible for but the MUTINY that indirectly led to those deaths. How is it ok to let him get away with that at all?

I think he was punished appropriately for the mutiny side of it, especially when you take into account the specific context of what happened, and the general looseness of the Rebellion/Resistance approach to military organization.
