Sasuke, largely, was right about many things towards the end of the manga, but I'm not a Stan who condones everything he did. For example, him asking Sakura to kill Karin in order to join him is not justifiable as 'working through trauma' or whatever you guys say it is. That's not a Sasuke who is acting justly and in line with any morality and I don't like that version of him. Those acts speak to some kind of darkness beyond righteousness. In a better-written manga, that coldness is what Naruto should have helped him resolve so that Sasuke could continue to make the changes he wanted in a just manner. Even if you sympathize with him, you have to admit there was an actual darkness to Sasuke, though perhaps not one as all-encompassing as canon suggests wherein he was apparently wrong about everything. He's not that black and white in my opinion.

Sakura gripping sasuke’s shoulders so hard they creak before he enters the courtroom: do you have your flashcards. Do you remember your lines. Do we need to go over basic respect again. Are you sure I can’t just transform into you and make your case myself

Sasuke: isn’t that illegal

Sakura: oh so now you suddenly care about the law?

Sasuke:

Sakura: ..yes it is but that law was made when the Uchiha ran the police and could tell with their sharringan. Not like anyone’s gonna do that NOW.

Sasuke: hm. Funny that.

Sakura: shut UP we clear your name first and THEN we can actually do things that matter.

Sasuke: so my potential execution suddenly doesn’t matter?

Sakura: DO YOU HAVE YOUR FLASHCARDS OR NOT

Sasuke: GOD fuck fine YES I have them now get out of the way or I’ll be late. Is that what you want you want me to be late I can’t WIN with your crazy ass

(Three minutes later, Sasuke on the stand)

Kakashi, loopy on painkillers I’m preparation for the obvious oncoming migraine: ….and how do you plead?

Sasuke, setting his note cards on fire and turning on his sharringan: guilty on all charges, obviously. The real question is how YOU, as the citizens of konoha complicit in atrocities and wars and countless horrors in your name, plead

The jury: 👁👄👁

The courtroom: 👁👄👁

Sakura: *foaming at the mouth and being physically restrained by Tenzo*

Naruto:

The konoha 12: thats what I thought you’d say you dumb fucking war criminal

Naruto: 😭🥰😨😍😰😘😱

Kakashi, very relieved he’s a dictator: well then I’ve heard enough. You’re free to go =/

he's a 10 but was unjustly framed as a villain by the narrative for doing something completely justifiable
