the way the fandom talks about arthur sometimes is…. really interesting

#.talk #malevolent #particularly in the way that john is made out to be arthur’s victim so often #like the addison arc post-yellow . seeing arthur called a ‘fucking psychopath’ for . having a complicated trauma response #i thought the whole thing with uncle made it pretty clear that arthur is not fucking . out to commit murder for fun? #there are things to be said about him enjoying the hunt and enjoying the act of killing evil people #but . he specifically was seeking revenge on uncle & larson because he was triggered #in killing them he’s trying to kill himself #IDK MAN. IDK i just . there’s not a lot of nuance in some posts #there’s more to be said about arthur & john’s relationship bc they are codependent as fuck #and that is in fact a 2 way street #neither of them are victim to the other but at the same time they are both victims to each other yknow? #they both suck. and i like them for that
