As Is Our Tradition, We Must Gather Round, Join Hands, And Manifest Viktor's Return.

as is our tradition, we must gather round, join hands, and manifest viktor's return.

times are tough, viktor nation. we have been scorned by the purple heart and then the trailer. but we have 3 final chances: another poster reveal, geeked week's sneak preview, and, if all else fails, the final trailer.

viktor nation thrives on delusion. we subsist on misguided hope. but we are eternal. we will win.

So one thing I've noticed about a lot of caitlyn haters is that they dislike her either because she's an enforcer or because she goes against jinx... I wanna break something down a second here

First of all, a lot of people seem to have a problem with enforcers in the show because they relate them to real life police. Guys this is a fictional world. And yes, there are problems in their system as well, but Caitlyn is not a representation of those issues, she counters them and is seemingly trying to lead by example as to what should be done. At no point does she treat anyone different because they're from the undercity. Like literally never. She only used her gun when necessary, and trades it in a heartbeat all for Vi.

The only reason she does not do the same for Jinx is because it is impossible to approach Jinx entirely passively, because Jinx does not trust Caitlyn, and so immediately resorts to defensive methods. Even so, she does not fire at Jinx in the last episode, but she greatly controls the situation by showing her power, but not abusing it. She doesn't want to hurt Jinx, she wants to ensure Jinx doesn't hurt other people again.

Which ties to my second point that Caitlyn has no choice but to go against Jinx. There isn't a middle ground, its a case of what is the best route. Caitlyn thinks rationally, she doesn't just attack Jinx because she's a threat. She knows Jinx is capable of so much destruction without any moral holdback. Unlike Silco, who plans what he's going to do to get the power he wants, Jinx acts to get attention, make an impact and without thinking what consequences there might be. As well as this, she is largely influenced by trauma, and has killed multiple people because of it. She is quite literally Topsides main threat, not just to Power but to people's lives, and safety, which then also becomes a threat to those of the undercity.

Maybe I'm just a massive Caitlyn defender, but I have my reasons. And don't get me wrong, I love Jinx, I think she's a great character, but she is highly flawed.
