That does answer my answer greatly, thank you for the reply and explanation.
For your only child MikeyAU Do Lieutenant or Brute have some reservations on letting Raph become a host for the armor? Like they got attached to him after a few years together.
I’d probably say that Raph is kind of in the same boat as Casey (who was also taken into the Foot at a young age) in that Lieutenant and Brute sort of take on a mentor role and they definitely care for his well-being, but aren’t proper substitutes for parents. They treat Raph less like their child and more like an employee (to emphasize this, Raph wears a disguise and works at the Foot Shack lol). Raph is pretty much given free reign around New York as long as he doesn’t attract too much attention to himself.
Also, because they are a cult, they see Raph’s destiny to become the Shredder as genuinely amazing; they aren’t doing it with malicious intent (not that that excuses it, of course, because it’s still bad for Raph) , but because it’s the highest honor one can have in the Foot, and since he works so hard, and is naturally durable, it makes perfect sense for them to pick him.
Hope that answers it!

What is something objectively good that you don't like or hate?
My issue is that if I hate something, even if it's good up until that point, I don't continue engaging in it. If I dislike a game, I don't typically continue playing it.
If I dislike something, I typically do not dwell on it either, so I don't remember it.

Good on them
Let Frank punish them!
okay but now i wonder if Frank is gonna hunt down all of the corrupt cops and lunatics who stole his symbol to use as a symbol for hate... because I need real world far-right idiots who do that shit to be finally fucking called out by marvel for turning punisher into a hate symbol. it's about time art reflects real life.

”… What’s happened?” ”Nothing. Everything. I lost my way.”
This was honestly meant to be a short piece, but my crippling weakness for dads + found families means my muse took the wheel for some Morgan Trayton/Megatron and Thaddeus Marshall/Terminus over the years.
(For the curious, Terminus raises Megatron as something of his son in this Human AU! Also that panel with Megatron beaten up is basically the night he came back from police custody after going out for a drink with Impactor in the city.)
Equating fascism to communism/socialism. Tell us you are a centrist without telling you are a centrist.
I know you might have trouble with this, but socialism is not Marxist in nature. Marxism is socialist in nature.
This means that other political ideologies, like fascism, can arise from socialist ideology.
And it did. Much like how Stalin’s USSR was socialist in nature.
Learn to accept it, you’ll be better off and more honest for it.
