    So you consider the British King to be definitively evil then?

    Doesn't matter what I think about a historical king, but what the colonists think.

    But in fictional story, if you're going to say that the emperor is not evil, then the rebels are either mislead/wrong or outright evil for trying to start a rebellion.

    Why must there be evil? Why must fiction follow your rules? Why cannot the morality of the real world exist in fiction?

    It depends on the story. If you're going to have a conflict with actual killing and you're expecting me to take side, then there must be good and evil, otherwise the conflict is meaningless and just a simple competition between two sides with no killing would have been a better way to frame the story.

    You don't have to take sides. Princess Mononoke is fiction and you don't have to take a side in that conflict.
