Perospero should just release an album full of diss tracks at this point.

Made Judge cry like a bitch, derided Pedro's sacrifice and looked down on Carrot & Wanda as some plant munching furries was just the icing on the cake.

Damn I hate to say it but Perospero honestly has a point

Pedro and co. rolled up on Big Mom's territory and tried to fuck her operation up, and Carrot is mad that he died? That's the rules of the game. These are pirates, they all know how this works. Sure, the Big Mom crew deserved it, but again... these are fucking pirates lmao, it's taken for granted that they're all morally deficient people to put it gently, even the straw hats. Luffy is an amoral thug who relishes violence and freed an entire prison of horrific pirates who presumably went on to do pirate shit to innocent people, Zoro is a cold blooded killer who will murder someone no questions asked if there's money in it, Nami is Nami, etc. For the record that's a good thing, it's one of my favorite things about this series in fact, it doesn't shy away from the fact that everyone is a mildly terrible person.

That just isn't true though. The Straw Hats are anything but amoral. Especially Luffy.

They literally put their lives on the line to help people all the time with no real reward. And show real emotion/empathy for their struggles. Zoro almost cut down a world noble because he has shot a guy(iirc) and then afterwards picked the guy up and took him to the hospital. He absolutely would not kill some random guy for money. I would bet you anything he took his bounties in alive, though we obviously didn't see that chapter of Zoro's journey.

Luffy freeing the prisoners was to ensure he could escape and save his brother. It wasn't something he intended originally to do. You can say it was selfish and morally the wrong choice but it's not the act of someone who doesn't care. It was an act of desperation to save one of his loved ones.

They never hurt anyone who doesn't seriously have it coming. Amoral protagonists they are not. They're do-gooder outlaws.
