"  The motivation of the Homelanders still confuses me"

I've said it elsewhere but I would bet money that in about a year we will find out that homelanders are in some way committed to being the source of all dumb dumbs, like maybe 20% of the population is made into dumb dumbs, and so consequently they feel motivated to commit genocide so that they will be free of their curse.

I've thought a lot about this, "what is so horrible that these people feel justified doing what they are doing?" and that's the only thing I've been able to come up with that passes the smell test.

I mean, if they just want the coordinate just cause they want to get rid of the titans, all they would need is Eren, there would be no necessity to exterminate the wall people, but apparently, in theory, even if they get Eren, they face some sort of consequence if they don't exterminate the wall people and I think that somehow they have to keep being the source of the new dumb dumbs.

That's the only thing I've been able to come up with where "the pieces fit".
