That last bit frustrates me to no end in various media. It’s part of why I hate Marvel films. You have these people already dishing out vigilante justice but killing the mass murderer/genocidal maniac is “lowering oneself to their level?” I’m sorry but at that point it’s your duty, lest you’re complicit in their next genocide.
i’ve been reading a webnovel called “Path of the deathless” and it’s very gratifying to have the protagonist go “no i don’t care that ‘you’re the only person who can run this empire’, you obviously need to die lmao, you’re a remorseless slaver and your empire is built on suffering. Now, please take a step to the side so i can pulp you without hurting the innocent people, thank you!”
I concur.

Ugh.

That does sound very gratifying.
