When your "allies" become your murderers.

That's why it's most offensive to me that Sasuke was destroyed as a character, and also that the system hasn't changed since Kakashi and Naruto came to power.

That is, Sasuke spent time in prison, and the elders continue to hold their positions of power. As if the humiliation wasn't enough, Kishimoto also took away Sasuke's arm.

And this is not mentioning all the other bullshit my boy had to go trough.

He to Naruto and Sakura is the prize. To Itachi is the damsel. To the leaf and fandom a cold hearted bitch who doesn't deserve the male protagonist's devotion even though he is a victim all the same and just didn't cope the way everyone wanted. He was not the perfect victim and even while striving to make his own destiny was manipulated and pushed by men's selfish desires. Always somehow relenting to the men in his life. The one time he does something for himself he is punished both by the narrative and the fandom. Then is finally married off to remain shackled to the same system that victimized him and his loved ones.

In the warring era, some evil Uchiha abused a powerful jutsu to unfairly gain power, and what did the rest of the Uchiha do? Turn their backs and let them? No, they made a counterjutsu to confront them and put an end to the problem.

Madara had just lost his brother, was broken in pain. And what, did he go crazy so-called-curse-of-hatred mode? No, he gave up justice for the person he loved most in the world in exchange of peace, just because he believed Hashirama, his enemy, was offering a treaty in good faith.

Madara finds Hashirama is a shameless liar and tries to get the Uchiha to break the treaty, what do the Uchiha do? Follow him and resume war just because he is Uchiha? No, they explicitly discredit him and send him away.

Sasuke finds that Konoha murdered his whole family just because its leaders were power thirsty genocidal jerks, does he just go and automatically join Obito and Madara because they are Uchiha? No, he summons his enemies to hear their part of the story and ends up fighting against the two evil Uchiha to help save the village.

They are profiled and accused of acting on hatred and emotions, when over and over again we are shown evidence that they do what is fair. Even when they are targeted, mistrusted and treated like enemies.

You know who puts their own above the village, above peace, above justice and above whatever is needed? Freaking Konoha's leadership. Hashirama put his brother above everything, risking the treaty and Konoha, letting him do racist crap as he pleased. He put him above everyone's safety letting him develop the evil zombie army jutsu. Hiruzen put his student and friend above everything, turning a blind eye to their crimes. Naruto himself is putting his own interests and his predecessors above everything, never holding the advisors responsible for their crimes, sweeping everything under the rug.

Massacre was what happened during wars, in any major battle, be it Minato, Sasori, or even the Sanin. Now, the Uchiha extermination doesn't even come close.

People weren't being killed for being enemies on the battlefield; they were being murdered in the dead of night inside their own homes.

Anyone with Uchiha blood was doomed, whether it was a child who hadn't even gone to the academy or an elderly man who had never set foot on a battlefield.

Because it didn't matter if the individuals were part of the coup or not, whether they had an active Sharingan or not, whether they were civils or not. It was all about having Uchiha blood.

Because eventually, they might have the Sharingan and might, perhaps, develop the curse of hatred and rebel against the village again.
