And this is the straw that broke the camel's back. It was becoming apparent with the last few ones, but it would seem that I can no longer entertain your opinions. You have a right to have them, but the thing that irritates me is that several of these opinions fly right in the face of stuff said in the same episode, or merely looking at the most cynical interpretation.

''..They are gonna try to recruit people at midnight? '''They're still trying to recruit people?! '

Sun mentioned they were going for the Night Faunus, the Nocturnal Ones. Of course they wouldn't be there in the day.

....And yet she did it anyway. Alone. Without telling Sun.

She did tell Sun, he even thanked her for inviting her. It was a reverse trap.

I mean, seriously, at this point she's just Adam but worse. Just as stupid-radical and her arguments are even less rational and believable, if they even are rational and believable to begin with. And Adam at least has corny lines and edgy looks to make him unintentionally funny. Ilia doesn't.

Really man? She just outlined she doesn't like hurting people, that she is only doing this because it gets results.

There’s the  humans  that still hate the Faunus, and there’s the others who stand by and let the hate happen! But you know what snuffs out hate? Fear. I don’t like hurting people. But I’ll tell you this… ( she points her weapon at Blake ) ...it’s gotten us results.  We all have to make sacrifices for the greater good, no matter how much it hurts.

Adam despises Humans, but he wants to rule them. He wants them to be subserviant. Ilia wants them to just shut the fuck up and leave them alone. If anything, she is more similar to Sienna Khan than Adam. And Adam's beliefs are rational how? The dude is clearly psychotic, and the justification I've only seen is that the animal traits of Faunus give them superiority to humans. If that was the truth, why in the hell are the Faunus is such a situation to begin with?

What, is it to make Ilia more sympathetic? Please, this revelation only makes her feel like a joke instead, with pettier reasons for fighting Blake, and that's before considering how she did a 180º in that regard, going from heartbroken about the idea to barely minding it.

 Were you even paying attention to the context of the scene? Blake says she knew this wasn't Ilia. Ilia said she didn't really know anything about her. She then revealed she had loved Blake. This wasn't supposed to be her reasoning for the thing, she was using it as an example as to how Blake doesn't really know her.

 Hell, even Adam made his radicality sound more rational than how Ilia made her radicality sound. And even more, Adam is actually willing to work with humans while Ilia just wants to engage in genocide or something.

 No, it makes Adam look like a damn hypocrite. He wants Humans to serve the faunus? How is he gonna achieve that goal? By serving humans! And yes, he is serving them, as no matter how smug he may be, it merely takes one snap of Salem's fingers, and Hazel crushes him like a twig, and replaces him with a more willing member to serve them. Ilia wants the Faunus to be left the fuck alone, the humans to shut up and be delivered justice for the crap they put the Faunus through. How is she gonna do that? Eliminating obstacles that lead to a less likely but more blinding follow method. Ghira's method is dumb as hell. I like Ghira, but just showing up there and offering aid against the WF doesn't solve any problems. Plus, trying to convince Faunus to help the people that fucked them over is blindly optimistic. Ghira's method did however discredit the WF on some level, so getting rid of him is the proper strategic move, when done properly. Basically, follow the WF or suffer the same fate. At least unlike Adam, she has reservations to this idea.

 I'm sorry, but while you have a right to your opinions, this page just made me cringe. I had to stop reading at several points just to soothe the migraine it was giving me. Want to express your opinions, power to ya. I'm just not gonna listen to them anymore. Farewell SYUTK, may we meet again, but it just won't be here.
