I will never understand Regulus hate. He was born and brought up in a cult and saw firsthand with his brother and cousin what happens when you go against the family. God forbid a CHILD try to survive in a culty household and war. People who hate him only see him as a death eater like hello??? Are u forgetting the main part of his story where he walks into his death destroying a horcrux??????? He ALONE at 17 discovered Voldys secret and died destroying a horcrux and people are hating on him????? HES A MFING WAR HERO!!!!
Instead of thinking critically, the fandom wants everything to be black and white, right and wrong, good and evil.
Gryffindors good, Slytherins evil.
The Order of the Phoenix good, Death Eaters evil.
Marauders good, Slytherin Skittles evil.
The fact is that there is far more grey area than that, even in canon:
Dumbledore groomed Harry to die, but he also showed him how to defeat Voldemort. Peter was one of James’s best friends and he betrays him. Remus was the “good boy” in school and the best DADA professor, but tried to run away from his wife and child. Draco was Harry’s worst nightmare, but Harry saved him from fiendfyre and Draco refused to identify Harry at Malfoy Manor. Regulus believed his family’s cult programming, yet he was also the one who figured out how to take Voldemort down and sacrificed his life to do so.
Nothing is ever as simple as good and evil.
