History EvenEvilHasStandards / RickAndMorty

* In "[[Recap/RickAndMortyS2E9LookWhosPurging Look Who's Purging Now]]", Rick eagerly awaits the violence of a yearly purge night but gets disgusted by it a few seconds into it, and looks distressed when [[BewareTheNiceOnes Morty]] ''[[AxCrazy really]]'' [[AxCrazy gets into it]].

!!Evil Morty

* After being transported to the perverted dreams of a woman in Morty's math teacher's dream, (ItMakesSenseInContext) Rick has no problem whatsoever in engaging in her fantasies, but even he's disgusted when Summer, his own granddaughter, is revealed to be part of her depraved fantasies.
* Rick also complains about his family spending Christmas on their phones and other devices, on Jesus' birthday, despite not exactly being the wholesome type.
* Despite Rick being happy for any chance to prove Morty's idea for an adventure sucked and win their little bet, when [[spoiler: Morty almost gets raped by King Jellybean and admits that Rick was right]], Rick immediately tries to cheer him up by conceding the victory to him, before taking him home, [[spoiler: and shoots his would-be rapist on the way out.]]
* While he has no problem hosting a wild party against his daughter's wishes and ignoring Morty's protests, Rick criticizes his granddaughter for only wanting to hold the party to increase her standing with the popular kids and later, trying to get rid of her old unpopular friend, instead of just partying for its own sake like himself.

* [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil Rape deeply shocks and offends him.]] In "Meeseeks and Destroy," he's horrified that Mr. Jellybean attempted to rape Morty, and makes a special point to come back and ''over''kill him. In "Rick Potion #9", he calls out Morty for using a LovePotion to "roofie" [[GirlOfMyDreams Jessica]] and calls him a "creep" (though Morty correctly points out that Rick helped him make the potion when asked, so the point is downplayed.) In "The [=ABC=]s of Beth", when Tommy (the antagonist of the episode) rapes an innocent creature he brought in as a "demonstration", Rick yells at Tommy to leave it alone, and then [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere outright bails on the adventure]] when Tommy states his intentions to ''eat'' the resulting fetus.
* In TheStinger for "Something Ricked This Way Comes", it's shown that Rick hates Neo-Nazis, animal abusers, bullies, and homophobes, enough to use his new jacked body to beat them up with Summer.
* Among the multiple universes' Ricks, he is the one of the few Ricks who cares about his Morty as a person. Most others treat theirs as somewhat valuable resources at best and outright disposable nuisances at worst. Not that this stops him from accepting a coupon for a "[[ReplacementGoldfish free replacement Morty]]" in one episode, but he notably ''is'' completely unwilling to otherwise replace Morty for an alternate reality version or clone like he has with Beth or Summer.
* In "[[WholePlotReference Look Who's]] [[Film/ThePurge Purging Now]]", Rick eagerly awaits the violence of a yearly purge night but gets disgusted by it a few seconds into it, and looks distressed when [[BewareTheNiceOnes Morty]] ''[[AxCrazy really]]'' [[AxCrazy gets into it]].
* In "Pickle Rick", he seems to be disgusted by the head of a foreign office when he finds out that he lied to [[YourTerroristsAreOurFreedomFighters Jaguar]] about his daughter being alive to use her as leverage.
* In "Edge Of Tomorty: Rick, Die, Rickpeat," Rick is visibly disturbed that several of his cloning vat backups are placed in parallel universes run by [[ANaziByAnyOtherName fascist regimes]]. His counterpart from one [[ItMakesSenseInContext where he and his family are wasps]] is similarly disgusted by the idea and dislikes his Morty "[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything looking at the wrong messageboards]]". Earlier, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere Rick smashes his head on one tube]] at [[NoJustNoReaction the idea of meeting a universe of fascist teddy bears]].
* In "One Crew over the Crewcoos Morty", although Rick is petty and showed up at [=HeistCon=] just to upstage Miles Knightly, even he is freaked out when the fans he brainwashed end up literally tearing Miles apart, quickly making it clear to Morty that he did not plan for that to happen.
* In "The Vat of Acid Episode", despite Rick planning everything to get back at Morty for making fun of his fake acid idea, he is clearly disgusted seeing that after undoing the fates of many alternate Mortys, several groups and representatives want Morty's head for the 'pranks' and other {{Noodle Incident}}s he pulled during his so-called SaveScumming. He also made sure to do all of this in an alternate dimension from the one where they've been living, as he doesn't consider it to be worth it to potentially burn all their bridges in their home universe and have to hop dimensions again just to teach Morty a lesson.

* Rick is appropriately grossed out when he learns what Morty was doing with the horse mount in "Rickdependence Spray", and decides that Morty should stew in the consequences.

* Zeep Xanflorp in "The Ricks Must Be Crazy" was horrified that Rick had used his whole universe [[ReedRichardsIsUseless just to power his car battery.]] He himself enslaved a universe but [[WellIntentionedExtremist was using it as a power source for his whole civilization]].
* The gangsters in 'The Vat of Acid Episode' might be amoral enough to double-cross and attempt to kill Rick and Morty, but even they are horrified when Rick dives in the (fake, but they didn't know that) vat of acid with his grandson.

* A lot for VillainProtagonist MadScientist [[Characters/RickAndMortyRickSanchez Rick Sanchez]] from ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty''. Rick is almost a completely SociopathicHero and unrepentant JerkAss who constantly endangers/traumatizes his grandson and other family members for usually selfish reasons. But even ''he'' occasionally has lines he won't cross:

** In general, Rick seems to dislike discrimination, as he has little-to-no issue with helping a cat girl turn the tables on her oppressive and elitist government, despite wanting to leave the planet just minutes earlier, and after Summer criticizes him for looting a (seemingly) abandoned ship and leaving some graffiti to make any police that come by think it was the work of an unrelated alien species, the only thing Rick seems to think is wrong is that [[HypocriticalHumor the police would on the blame on said species just because they found some graffiti.]] When he learns that he apparently sometimes goes on rants about Israel while drunk, he's legitimately worried at the thought that he might spout anti-Semitic rhetoric while intoxicated, and is relieved when Morty tells him he just rambles about defense budgets.
