So I got very heated at the end and ended up scrapping the whole thing.

Mainly, it was a rant about how the fandom constantly tries to downplay Fordola's actions, and that she was justified in what she had done. Even though Yotsuyu took far more delight in her actions, I was more sympathetic to her because you're flat out told, via multiple sources, that she was a domestic and sexual abuse survivor from her OWN culture. Meanwhile, Fordola, we don't know at this time what the catalyst was to set her on her path, and she committed atrocities to her own people to gain acceptance of the foreigners who have treated them as garbage. I'm not going to say either one was more justified over the other, but at this point, Yotsuyu was MUCH better explained and understandable as to how she fell so far, and she was vilified whole Fordolda for woobified. And that just does not sit well with me at ALL.
