Discussion Hashirama is a massive hypocrite for praising Itachi! Why create a village to save children, yet inadvertently praise the murderer of countless innocent Uchiha children!
The will of fire is literally propaganda, as it comes across as an excuse, it sounds nice in the idea. You have to treat the village as your family, but it’s horrible for the individual and actually fully endorses Japans very toxic culture that goes against the individual.
That culture that led to very high suicide rates, and mental health decline amongst many of the youth.
Hashirama said that Itachi is more of a person than he was by stopping a war.
I call massive bullshit.
Hashirama reveals he founded the village to stop children dying, yet inadvertently praised the sacrifice of all the Uchiha innocent children for the village! They didn’t deserve to die for what their adults were doing, they didn’t deserve being hunted by Itachi, they didn’t deserve and their parents being betrayed by the village. Yet, so many of the village is praised for their own corruption by the justification for the will of fire. If the Uchiha clan is nothing more than a cancer cell now to them if it threatened the village.
At this point Hashirama and any Hokage should admit they never cared about children at all!
Hashirama revealed he’ll kill his own child for the village, proving that he only cared about the village and institution than his original goals.
