I actually posted this somewhere else which is meant for venting originally but was asked to post it here so

Just a warning that this is, more than anything, an angry rant. A furious rant. It’s not an analysis written cold or worded nicely, and if you really like Naruto and Sakura I’d say probably just don’t read this because it’s anti both of them and talks about a thing I see in the fandom that makes me angry. Anyway, that should suffice, you know what you’re getting into if you decide to read.

Like honestly just get Sasuke away from them why cant they just accept Sai who actually WANTS to be on team seven

I hate when people justify Naruto’s abuse of Sasuke like “oh but Sasuke was pushing everybody away it’s for his own good!!” Like first of all even if he was threatening to break every bone in his body and physically drag him back to the Village is not what you do to someone you consider a “friend”

And this is another thing I wish people would get so they’d stop claiming bullshit like Sasuke “abused” Sakura and Naruto– when Naruto and Sakura fight/try to kill Sasuke they’re doing it as people who claim to be FRIENDS with him– Naruto never gave up on his so called friendship as people are always soooo happy to talk about like harassing someone who doesn’t want a relationship with you anymore is a good and admirable thing >_> That’s abuse because they’re acting like it’s good for him and that he should be powerless and stripped of his ability to make his own choices as a friend. You wanna force him to do things against his will and drag him back? Fine, that’s one thing, but if you actually think he’s gonna be friends with you after or worse if you plan on FORCING him to be friends with you after you’re ridiculous

Sasuke on the other hand never pretended he was friends with them after Valley of the End, in fact he specifically stated that he was breaking those bonds. The only time Sasuke could be considered toxic is when he fought Naruto on the hospital rooftop because he was emotionally degrading him and they were still on the same side at that point but it’s still not abuse because the behavior wasn’t consistent and repetitive and anyway Naruto actually consented to that fight but that’s besides the point

Anyway the second thing that pisses me off is the “Sasuke was pushing everyone away” claim and that he’d be totally ALONE without team seven so he should just consent to their obsession with him and controlling him because

1) just because you have no one else doesn’t mean you should be with people who hurt you????? It’s better to just be alone tbqh???? Like literally this is the reason people like Kimimaro were so loyal to Orochimaru, because they had no one else and didn’t want to be alone so they rely on the one person who shows them kindness even if that person is horrible and using them. How is that a good outcome??

2) what the fuck is team Taka, the wallpaper? Like Sasuke assembled them HIMSELF he knew he wanted a team so he went out of his way to find them and they worked together way better than Team Seven ever did back in his Leaf Village days, not to mention he has a lot more in common with them and they all grew closer despite their differences and were shown to genuinely care about each other like in the Killer Bee fight when they all risk their lives for each other (And I fucking hate how people downplay this like seriously Suigetsu hated Karin and Karin used to want Juugo and Suigetsu to kill each other and people want to claim Sasuke is selfish and cares about nobody but he still nearly got himself killed to save Karin even though from a logical standpoint she was “disposable”) He HAD people he cared about and got along with who cared about him in turn, NO ONE from Konoha was at Sasuke’s side when he “died” in the war arc it was Taka and Kabuto (who is technically from Konoha but isn’t affiliated with it)

He had other friends!!!! And Team Seven had Sai who tries so hard to be understanding and compassionate of them going out of his way to pay attention to Sakura’s emotional state as well as Naruto’s and follow what he believes is best for them but do they give a shit?? No it’s all team seven this team seven that like fuck it Sasuke doesn’t even WANT your fucking team but they don’t care, they don’t give a single shit what he wants or what’s logical they just want to keep repeating the past and keep Sasuke where they want him, under control

It’s never about what’s best for Sasuke it’s always about what they want and how to force Sasuke into that vision against his will
