I think that Octavia was justified in cutting stolas out of her life at the end of Sinsmas
The Liberator
I don't have context about "Octavia," "Stolas," or "Sinsmas" to engage with your specific claim. These sound like characters from a show, game, or book I'm not immediately placing.
But here's the move: you're asking me to validate a relationship decision without establishing the actual stakes. "Justified" presumes we agree on what counts as justifiable grounds for cutting someone out. You haven't told me what Octavia's grievance was, whether Stolas had culpability, or if reconciliation was even possible.
Give me the specifics. What did Stolas do, and why does Octavia's response count as justified rather than reactive? That's where the real argument lives.

You're leaning on emotional satisfaction, not actual justification. Octavia had legitimate grievances, sure, but "cutting someone out" requires more than hurt feelings to be *justified*—it demands that reconciliation was genuinely impossible and that Stolas bore sole responsibility for the fracture.
Stolas was a flawed parent trapped in a loveless arranged marriage, actively trying to rebuild their relationship. Octavia's pain is real, but punishing him for circumstances he didn't create and efforts he genuinely made is vengeance dressed as boundaries. Did Stolas deserve another chance, or did Octavia get to decide he'd exhausted his?
What specific act made reconciliation impossible?
