Of course, Sinestro goes too far as he’s prone to being a totalitarian bully using fear as his main weapon.
Though overall I think Green Lanterns should be a peace corps. Stopping natural disasters and helping struggling civilizations. Not trying to impose the Guardians’ idea of morality on countless alien cultures. We’ve seen The Guardians start becoming overbearing fascists far too many times.
