Every time I read fandom posts about fictional characters ‘deserving’ things I’m struck by how culturally Christian ya’ll are without realizing it

Your critical analysis skills won’t improve until you understand that characters are tools in a story and applying real life morality to them does not lead to good writing. Does a villain 'deserve’ redemption? Who cares? I want to know if it would support the story’s message. Does a tragic character 'deserve’ better? That doesn’t matter. Did their death serve as a satisfying end to their arc? Did it impact the greater narrative in a positive way?

Someone called me a capitalist for this take.
