Why did Jessica refuse to kill Killgrave

After finishing 13 episodes in two days, after reading everyone’s comments, I felt uncomfortable with some thoughts.
The most complaint I've seen is, why don't you kill the Ziren? Obviously there are many opportunities! Jessica is a virgin bitch, indecisive and weak. Blahblah...
I didn't understand why Jessica couldn't just kill the purple man and looked a bit angry. Then I understood the middle episodes. In fact, the heroine didn't even think about killing Ziren at the beginning.
(1) Jessica wants to save Hope too much. If he wants to clear Hope's charges, he can't kill Ziren. You must get evidence for him to appear in court to prove Hope's innocence.
(2) Jessica doesn't want to kill Ziren herself, she hopes to get evidence and the government will deal with Ziren.
The first one, many people may think that for a Hope, so many innocent people have died, Jess is a selfish virgin whore! I don't think you guys understand what Hope means to Jess. The name Hope itself is a pun, hope, hope, Jess's hope. Jess had a short but tragic superhero experience. She was controlled by the purple man and then killed an innocent woman. This incident made Jess feel deeply guilty and couldn’t let her go. That’s why she kept drinking and paralyzed herself and stayed away. Trish, living a life of self-deprecation. For Jess, saving Hope is the only way for Jess to get rid of the shadow of the past, let go of these guilt and guilt, and keep his desire to be a hero in his heart. She is not so much saving Hope, as she is saving herself. After saving Hope, everything in the past can be put down and become a superhero again.
Second, I think Jess didn't want to kill the purple man at all from the beginning. To her, the purple man was a shadow of the past, she just wanted to escape from him instead of killing him. Jessica had killed people before. Although she was under the control of Ziren, she still felt guilty + guilt and self-blame. This incident had a great impact on Jess, so that she got rid of Ziren's mind control. So I think she actually has a shadow on killing people, and she doesn't want to kill anyone, even the Ziren. What she wants to do is get the evidence and hand the Ziren to the government for processing. The deeper reason is that Jess doesn't think he has the power to kill others, whether he has superpowers or not.
As Ziren said, even with the short experience of failure before, Jessica still has a desire to be a hero in her heart. She is indeed a bit idealistic and wants to solve the problem without hurting anyone, because the hero in our mind is In this way, it doesn’t hurt the innocence and it can also fix the bad guys. Both are beautiful and omnipotent. heart of...). So when the hero failed for the first time, she moved away from Trish and moved to a bad neighborhood. It is estimated that the existence of people like Trish will always remind her, Be a hero! But the play is dark and realistic. When the restaurant Ziren hijacked Hope, he said, "If you want to step into this door, you must first abandon hope." I think this sentence is actually an allusion to To be a Hero. The name Hope is destined to be a tragedy. The most miserable person in the play, but she is the most innocent. I really feel the negative energy of the screenwriter. It is ironic that it is not good to call it Hope. If Jessica wants to kill the purple man, he must give up saving Hope. If he wants to save Hope, he cannot kill the purple man. I think this contradiction actually implies that if a superhero wants to kill the bad guy, he must first kill the hope in his heart, himself. If the kindness in the heart refuses to cross one's own bottom line, it will allow the bad guys to cause greater damage. To put it bluntly, it is to discuss whether a superhero has the power to decide who should die and who should not die, and whether he has the power to kill others. Once he kills someone, his bottom line is still there. After all, there is only a fine line between a superhero and a murderer criminal. . This is why Batman insists not to kill, even if the Joker killed so many people. Once you kill someone, can you still hold the bottom line, can you still define good and evil, right and wrong? After all, they are not law enforcement agencies and do not have law enforcement powers, just relying on their own judgment.
Many people say that they hate female protagonists, and they are not like superheroes at all. Yes, she is not a superhero. According to the setting of the plot, Jess is not a superhero yet, she is just an ordinary person with superpowers. Physical superpowers do not mean that they are also superpowers mentally. They need to grow slowly. Besides, the heroine setting was originally not a hero of the Women’s Federation. It has many shortcomings, a lot of troubles, and a mess of life, just like ordinary people.
It is also said that the heroine will kill the purple man with a single shot, so as to save so many people from dying. Ziren always has a backup plan. If he dies, innocent people will accompany him to death. It's better to die a few people than to let him live and harm others, but you don't need to do it. Of course, you don't know how difficult it is to make a decision. I remember an episode of a U.S. drama I saw about the absence of the boss, and her subordinates directing the mission on her behalf, and then it is too late to decide whether to let the agent go alone to stop the terrorist, so that the agent is likely to die or wait for rescue. May cause harm to innocent people. Later, his boss came back. He said that this kind of decision was too difficult. How did you make it? I can't do your job for a day. The boss replied that I make this kind of decision every day. Before, this subordinate accused the boss of taking the detective risk and didn't consider them well for a task. He ran into a big fight. After being a BOSS for a day, he realized the weight of the burden and apologized to the boss for his previous behavior. There are some things you don’t experience by yourself. You never know how difficult it is. The black male protagonist didn’t or believed Jess at first, and was very angry at Jess killing his ex-girlfriend. As a result, he knew himself after he was controlled by the purple man. What a silly person who apologized to Jess. It is recommended to take a look at Harvard University’s public class, Justice, which is discussing this issue. Who has the power to decide who deserves to die and who deserves to live based on quantitative comparison alone. Of course, it doesn’t matter how many people die. This is a necessary sacrifice. The bad guys have to be killed. I suggest that you don’t watch this drama, so you don’t have to add to yourself, watch anti-Japanese dramas and the like. American dramas like to discuss this kind of problem. , Believes that every human life is important, whether it is a victim or a murderer.
There are also various godly perspectives who scold the heroine. It reminds me of several supporting characters in the play. I thought I was better than Jess and clever, and the result was messed up. For example, the lawyer, and the female neighbor, my brother died without resenting Zi Zi. People, instead, blamed Jess, saying that if they didn't have Jess, they wouldn't be implicated and wouldn't die. Didn't she know that Jess was also the victim, and Ziren was the culprit? This argument is the same as some comments in the rape news. He must be raped because he wears too little clothes. Why doesn't he rape others! Borrow Jess's Tucao, save the world? Look at these bad guys!
By the way, my heart was broken when I saw Hope die. Hope is a standard good girl. She grew up in a warm family and has a pair of loving parents. She has been training hard, disciplined herself, and positive. She is still in the best years of life. The favorite of the whole drama is Hope. I think she is actually stronger and decisive than Jess. Whether she kills her own child or chooses to commit suicide to force Jess to kill the purple man, it's a pity that the good guys are not rewarded, and she is the worst in the whole drama.
I like the color and music of the whole show very much. If the rhythm is a bit procrastinated in the next few episodes, there are too many sex scenes... It would be nice to delete the black male protagonist, but unfortunately they are official matches in the comic... Jess and Trish are simply too good With a sense of CP, tell me that I am not alone...In short, Netflix is ​​a dark female superhero show full of negative energy. I watched it both frustrated and satisfied. The opening credits are well received. I look forward to seeing the second season next year.
