[GENERAL- TRANSFORMERS]
Unpopular opinion: the autobots are just as bad as, if not worse than the decepticons.
In animated at the least, they clearly have no care for civilian lives (jetfire and jetstorm could've turned into raging psychos from Starscreams code, no one cared when sentinel did live fire training with them.)
In most universes, aligned continuity and IDW comics most notably, the autobots had the decepticons ENSLAVED- having them fight in gladiatorial battles and do heavy work, while higher caste Seekers and Autobots lived more luxurious lives.
I need to do more reading into it, but the 'cons are justified- however no one in this series is evil.
