* ''Anime/CodeGeass'': Suzaku is this despite trying to be an InternalReformist - while he does acknowledge that Britannia is corrupt and should be fixed, he still keeps supporting it despite the increasing amounts of atrocities said empire commits. This is his main FatalFlaw, as he can't recognize that Britannia is fundamentally broken and needs to be destroyed as is in order for actual reforms to take place.

* In ''Literature/HeavyObject'', the existence of Objects has resulted in an era of "clean wars" where there need be no civilian casualties and only the Elites piloting Objects need to fight. However, this has resulted in radicalization of the populace and the "clean wars" are actually devastating and often far uglier than claimed, not to mention the massive drain on global resources each Object represents. It's even revealed in lead-up to the finale that Object battles have released so much energy they've [[spoiler:disrupted the Earth's rotational axis and damaged the tectonic plates, potentially dooming all life on Earth]]. Despite this the powers behind all four supernations are united in their need to preserve the era of Objects and they are willing to kill anyone who questions this.

** The Gem Empire, for thousands of years, lived under the oppressive rule of the Great Diamond Authority; self-expression, self-change, and individuality were harshly punished. Even worse, it wasn't just the denizens of the empire that were oppressed, but also Blue and Yellow Diamond, two of the empire's leaders, as well. (And by extension, ''Pink'' Diamond, who [[spoiler:started a war and played both sides to free herself and her expressive brethren]]!)

* ''VideoGame/TheTalosPrinciple2'': Mayor Hermanubis is a supporter the isolationism, believing the Founder intended for new humans to remain in New Jerusalem and cause no harm to the outside world. He discourages exploration despite it being clear that the city is running out of resources, but allows Byron's expedition to confirm if the Megastructure is a threat or not, as long as they don't pursue its technology. Near the end he admits he values everyone's safety even if he has to be the contrarian and wouldn't mind if he doesn't win the next elections.

* In ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'' Sera the High Seraphim understands, on some level, that the system of Divine Judgement which puts angels into Heaven and demons into Hell is flawed, and that the Extermination plan is inherently unfair to the Sinners. But at the same time, Sera refuses to question it or stop the Exterminations. [[spoiler:It doesn’t matter if Sinners like Angel Dust can be redeemed or monsters like Adam were made angels; as far as Sera is concerned, whatever criteria is used to sort souls into Heaven or Hell is infallible and unchangeable, even if she doesn't know what those standards are. Sera's speech to Emily in the episode "Welcome to Heaven" reveals that Sera fears that any angels who question the system will end up as {{Fallen Angel}}s like Lucifer. So Sera not only doesn't question it, but she prevents anyone else from questioning it either.]]
