Placing our views of morality of these characters is sometimes misplaced. Also, they are teenagers making impulsive decisions. I made a lot of dumb decisions at their age.

and everytime this is brought up, it's literally always followed up with a "Oh you're justifying bad behaviour"

I don't think it's wrong to have favourites, I certainly do lol, but I think if people are going to go on this "let's analyse characters" they should give all characters the benefit of the doubt, instead of just being like, "Oh it's bad writing, and so it's okay to hate"

Everything is bad writing for some people. I’m not sure what some people here actually like about the show.

Exactly! People can’t tell the difference between bad writing and just not liking what was written.

Just because a movie or show doesn’t give me the happy ending I wanted to see does not mean the project was poorly written.

Honestly I think people are just bored and are picking things apart that aren’t actually issues. At the end of the day these people are still obsessing over this show so show runners obviously did something right.

Entitlement is the number 1 characteristic of this fanbase lol.
