He's a great character, but he's an awful awful person
Many of these chuds seem to hero worship Joel. Is it just worshipping the cult of violence and vigilante justice?

He is. He's also fiercely protective of the ones he loves, as well as being a lonely, closed off guy who has been devastated by loss. He's someone a lot of guys can relate to. He's a flawed, fucked up human being to be sure, but to say there is no good is as blind as saying there is no bad, which is the point the comment above was trying to make.
I didn't say there's no good. Just in my opinion the amount of bad in the man overwrites whatever good there might be.
He wanted to protect Ellie for selfish reasons so he could have a surrogate daughter and didn't take into consideration what she would have wanted.
He's a violent vigilante reactionary and there's a reason chuds love him so much
