Why should either of them be forgiven, though?

Honestly, it seems like you think that you're agreeing with the secret (petunia and snape have fucked up in similar ways), but the way it comes across is you taking a shit on Petunia. I'm seriously not trying to be argumentative or mean, I'm just saying that this is what people think you are doing which is why you are having lots of disagreement!

I'm really just replying to all the other comments that have been posted by people who think that by saying that Snape can also be forgiven/more easily forgiven, I'm trying to sanctify him, which I've continually pointed out that I'm not doing. A lot of those people are very much of the "Forgive Petunia if you must for how she treated Lily/Harry but never forgive Snape" mentality and my attempts to point out the often-overlooked root causes of Snape's ass-hattery and cruelty apparently made me out to be someone akin to a Snape-wife (which makes me shudder).

I don't think people are saying Petunia should be forgiven while Snape shouldn't. They're agreeing with the secret, which points out that only Snape's situation is forgiven by fandom when they're BOTH awful people. But you just essentially admitted to going on a crusade here against those people. And you wonder why you're coming across as a Snape wife? Really?

People are already well and fully aware of why Snape was so fucked up and abusive, ok? It's all in the books, and even moreso in fandom. They're AGREEING WITH THE SECRET, and discussing WHY Petunia is no worse than Snape but gets treated as so. I have yet to see anyone who has screamed that Snape should rot in hell while Petunia should be absolved, ffs. But then, I haven't been obsessing over this comment thread like you appear to have been.

See? That's why you come across like a Snape wife.

I made a point about why I would more easily forgive Snape than Petunia if I had to choose and several people replied to me with very different opinions. That's what I meant when I said I was responding to them. I didn't just start reply to everyone's comments.

Most are my comments are saying the same thing to different people. If it looks obsessive, then that's why. Because I'm repeating myself over and over to people who didn't read my replies to other people.
