God This Is Infuriating And I Needed To Say Something About It - Blog Posts

Been reading more into the BNHA tags and I’m truly disappointed in this fandom.

People need to stop pretending that bad things happening to you(big or small) or having a mental disorder, excuses literal murder. Stop making Dabi seem like a tragic hero because Endeavor is an abusive asshole who’s being forgiven too easily. Dabi is the one who decided to kill people/doesn’t care who dies on his path to get revenge. Stop pretending all abuse victims are sad pushovers that can do nothing wrong.

People need to stop pretending it’s all Dabi’s fault. These people need to stop pretending that all abuse victims look and behave the same, Dabi is doing this shit because he believes it as the best/only option, not because he’s being a baby about his trauma. Stop blaming abuse victims.

In conclusion, Dabi is a deep and introspective character and y’all need to stop reducing him to a single, one-dimensional quality, either he’s done nothing wrong or he’s done everything wrong. His character goes deeper than that, he’s a product of his environment and he’s lashing out against said environment because the person who abused and traumatized him is getting away with it, the system is set up so certain people will always fail and certain people wil always win. Dabi as a character is a commentary of that.
