Feel free to read the comments for some glorious salt farming.

Now my follow up. An imagery conversation with a fictional character so many are so willing to defend to death (literally if he actually existed):

“Itachi, why did you massacre the entire Uchiha clan?”

“Because I don’t like war, and they were forming a coup, and three of the four elders told me to.”

“And you saw no other way to prevent that? Say, I don’t know, exposing the coup? Convincing your father there’s are better ways to cause change? Kill the elders pushing for this massacre even? Perhaps doing what every other clan does short of massacreing everyone? No?”

“Nope, had to kill everyone.”

“And you don’t think that’s at all extreme and may have far extending conserquences, like, I don’t know, your little brother trying to take revenge on you or the whole village because three of the four the elders told to do it?”

“Had. To. Kill. Everyone.”
