131. Total word--you've expressed my feelings about this perfectly. I'm not in the fandom, but it makes me sad to hear people are apparently seeing Felix's recent actions in black and white, because I don't think they are meant to be seen that way at all: the situation is tricky, and his motivations are good. IMO, if the show just wanted us to hate someone, they would have had Zerek lead the insurrection by himself (though even Zerek is clearly a very complex character).

[velvet-mace.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I thought it very telling that Felix, in fact, had mostly taken over the insurrection from Zerek. Zerek is all ideas and bluster, but in the end he's just not that capable of a leader. He can convince people to follow him, but he can't follow through on it -- which is why he never achieves the top spot, and why he spends so much time being locked up. He's all idealism, not enough practicality and thought.

We can demonize Zerek's incompetence (as is shown by the fact that his plan B was to kill the elected counsil -- essentially destroying the very thing he wants), but we can't demonize his core idea: to get rid of the cylons. Because Adama's plan is a huge gamble, made undemocratically in private, which if misjudged could easily mean the extinction of all humans.

BSG could just have easily and believably framed Adama and Roselin as the bad guys -- They are all but dictators, and the entire race is held hostage to their ideas -- ideas which have been apparently wrong. (Earth)
