Editing Mary Sue (section)

===Moral Sue===
Sure, they're not invicible, super-strong, super-fast or have powers beyond reckoning. Neither are they beloved by everyone except the cartoonishly evil villains. But one thing is clear; they are ''constantly'' shown to be right about everything. Or at least put at such a pedestal when it comes to giving out life lessons that it becomes extremely annoying. Moral Sues are [[Skub|debatably]] a thing. Because of mostly two factors; for one, how does one actually declare a Moral Sue? Sure, a character could be always "presented" as right because of the choice of words or the mise-en-scène while they deliver their little speech, but on the greater scale of the medium they reside in, are they really right about the one thing they preach? Some characters may be entitled or very faithful to their ideology, but how much is it the author doing intellectual masturbation and preaching, and how much is it the character just acting the way they are? Perhaps in a near future, they might actually grow out of that mentality.

Another issue comes in the form of political bias. That is to say '''our''' political bias. What if a character is just right? What if we don't necesarily agree with what he or she says, but at least their argument or what they stand for makes sense and sounds actually understandable? This can happen. More often than not, accusations of character being Moral Sues stem from political disagreements online. With that being said, an actual Moral Sue would be presented as always right or standing correct at any given moment, with the added bonus of terrible or unsubtle writing to accompany them. Not only that, but their current situation or happenings within the confines of a story will prove them right at one point or another.

Probably the best way to prove a character is a Moral Sue? If readers/viewers who '''actually agree''' with the position ''still'' find the character intolerable for being too preachy (a situation TV Tropes calls "Don't Shoot The Message").
