User blog comment:BeholderofStuff/Pure Evil Removal Proposal: Piella Bakewell/@comment-35446580-20190624022025

Okay. So as somebody who fought hard for Piella’s qualification when she was proposed for the category in the first place, it’s obvious that I’m inclined to keep but to try to avoid as much needless bias as possible my current vote is an undecided. However... While I get Piella is fat and that she seems to be made fun of because of that but I just kind of hate the reasoning that she isn’t taken seriously... while I’m not outright debunking or doubting that, it just feels wrong on so many levels (to me at least) that a serial killer, and I mean a serial killer in a lighthearted children’s claymation “isn’t taken seriously.” I also don’t think that Wallace’s mourning is really that disqualifying, because to me it’s similar to a good person just mourning an enemy’s death- I read that Caesar (I think that was his name) from the Planet of the Ape series mourned Kobu’s (whoever the bad ape was) death and the latter is still PE the last I checked. I get that maybe the creators are making fun of Piella for her weight but she’s killing people in a claymation aimed at children, for a relatively petty reason. Now again, my vote is currently an abstain since I’m certain that people will easily put this argument down but I just wanted to say that before we continued.
