Is my morals in the wrong here? I don't understand why Guwon is wrong abt being stingy(?) with the supplies? The punishment, I kinda get it since prison will just waste their resources, banishment might be a liability in the long run. I just don't understand.

    R u only asking in regards to the supplies? Then yes, being scarce in using essentials is important in dire times.

    Due process is important too however - getting all the facts, understanding the motive, n applying the appropriate disciplinary action.

    Since it’s a fucked world in the story, everything is extreme - W medicine being low n a child dying, stealing is frowned upon in general. Though u may not b killed by the law by committing robbery, during the end of the world full of despair, doesn’t seem out of the norm.

    If we follow due process, the child’s dad could’ve asked to get some of the meds even if he surely knew he was going to b turned down. If I were in the position, I would do what I can to keep both my child n I to live - if there was truly no other option, then yes, I will accept my faith. I wouldn’t haven’t any regrets tho n I would spew n curse everyone because I still tried to do what was right.

    Perhaps in the end, it wouldn’t matter since the town doesn’t want to get on Guwon’s bad side n all of their families were killed as well but in regards to morals: its wrong to steal in any circumstance but the punishment should match the crime to maintain civility n true harmony - due process should b involved always.

    Honestly what you're saying is very logical with how their world is right now, but there's a difference between logical and moral. Stealing doesn't warrant being killed but as you said it might cause this and that if you don't put a stop to it. But I guess since Mc is still holding onto his morals (that killing is just wrong) from when before the apocalypse of course he would see that what Guwon did is wrong in his eyes.

    Those explainations/logic you said isn't wrong, that is if you don't have any more options, many people -including Mc would agree that killing would be last resort (i.e. If the guy is very dangerous and can't be tamed or something) since killing is generally considered wrong unless of course self-defense. Plus, everyone has their own morals, which is shape by what you believe. I mean you can say what he did is wrong, but what can you do when this and that might happen if the person is left alive or something. ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍

    But y did it get to that point? Yes, Guwon started it w massacring the town’s family members because they were of no use n that’s wrong although, having so many mouths to feed can become a problem - being frugal is important. What could’ve been done is sending him out to b a scavenger as punishment so he can provide for the town.

    But there is three kids involved - that’s what we will teach the future if there will b one? In extreme circumstances, yes our morals n what we believed in would change but remaining logical is essential to survive. In some way, Guwon thought that way since there needs to b a use for survival in the current times but what kind of town r u creating?

    I’m not saying that killing is out of the question when the world is ending but Guwon’s a psycho LMAOOO but it’s a total theory, hmu when it’s the end of the world ε=ε=(ノ≧∇≦)ノ

    I mean Guwon does give off a weird vibe, like he just got born in this messed up apocalypse and had to learn how to survive first before anything else or something ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
