A+

I think people who think villains cannot ever have anything sympathetic about them operate on the same logic as woobifying fangirls: any hint of sympathetic motivations means he's OMG TOTES INNOCENT FOREVER. Except fangirls choose to cling to anything that can be interpreted as sympathetic to excuse all the evil he's done, whereas the bashers try to explain anything sympathetic away by saying that he wasn't really sympathetic -- he was just pretending, or something.

Newsflash: your genocidal world-conquering murderous villain will still be evil if he had a bad childhood or has regrets or still loves his brother or feels genuinely sad at times. He's not going to magically disappear into a puff of purity and innocence. You're still allowed to hate him, or love to hate him. Don't worry.

This.

It's a shame some fans can't grasp those simple facts. Fandom is way too extreme at times; it's why I comment anonymously on fandom things. I like to talk to other fans, but the bs is bothersome.

This. Exactly this. I would suspect some of the blind rage hatred is a form of backlash because you can only hear "HE JUST NEEDS A HUG" so many times before you crack a little.
