"Poor little baby Hodge can't see any more flowers." "Robert can't go back to Idris." "Maryse barely made it out of institude." THEY COMMITTED GENOCIDE. They killed people just for not being like them, stole their possessions, and looted their homes. THEY TRIED TO START A CIVIL WAR. The Clave was benevolent because they were RICH. But I want you to tell me if you would have thought it's fair that someone who murdered YOUR family and your own kind in cold blood would only be made the DIRECTOR or advisor of one of the most important political figures of shadow world.
Is like saying that Cortés, Franco Musulini or Hitler were "just having a bad time".
I undertand if you love them, I really like Robert and Maryse, I respect Jocelyn, I love to read fics about them all the time. I also respect a lot writters who can create a different POV about or for them.
But canon Circle of Raziel where horrible humans that kill with no mercy. Please never forget that facism is not an opinion, IS VIOLENCE FROM PRIVILEGE, is what shadowhunters is about.
