If you can help it? That seems pretty easily helped to me.

I mean I am human, and sometimes I slipped. You kind of insulted me earlier without meaning to. Sometimes people do awful things without meaning to, I can't say that I will be perfect all the time.

The sad thing about this is that I think these discussions could have really been interesting, concerning Marina as a character and how she's been used by the plot and writers--none of these "bashers" struck me as unintelligent--even if the starting point was "I hope she dies!" But instead we get "I hope she dies!", "STFU, misogynistic jerk!", "WTF, don't call me that!" on and on and on. If your initial response to something like that is "HOW DARE YOU" instead of "Why would you say that?", I think you're missing out on something potentially interesting.

See, I am tired of that starting point, and if starts at that point I don't engage anymore, because at this point I don't want to hear their justifications for why they think a character deserves a firey death or whatever, they set the tone of that conversation, and I don't trust people who start off that way to argue in good faith.

Maybe because when I tried what you said those people should do, I got called a "homophobic slut", and when called that I can't assume good will on their part, and they lost my respect, so at that point I usually step out.

Where did I say that defenders are on the wrong side? I'm just saying I've noticed a pattern of people getting defensive on a character's behalf that ultimately leads to bad blood and hurt feelings.

I guess my point is that that is true for both sides, not just the one side, the source of bad blood does not just lie with the side that is defensive. I think my problem is that you seem to be insinuating that the responsibility lies solely on one group when it doesn't. It is what happens when people are overly invested in their own opinion.
