A little Column A, a little Column B. Like I was in FFXIV fandom when Shadowbringers came out and Emet Selch was the new sexyman. His actions were always understandable but I was really disappointed in the number of fans who passionately argued that him committing genocide was a good thing and how cool the scenario writer was for writing a character who "made you reconsider the ethics of genocide" and gosh maybe the heroes were the real monsters all along.

Emet Selch is a cool character and a tragic one and his actions are completely understandable but I've never forgotten the fact that those types of fans were hanging around justifying a video game character like that. It didn't die down until the Israel-Palestine war started up again and then a real genocide taking place made everyone keep that opinion to themselves.

This! I love Emet-Selch as a villain, he's a great character, he was very clearly in the wrong haha.

When I see things like this I'm glad that the game-story discussion was with my group of friends who basically had the same thoughts as you: understandable from his perspective but ultimately wrong and he needed to go because he would not stop. I love a villain with utter conviction in their goals but that doesn't make them right.
