    Skylar hate is so nuts. Her husband was becoming a goddamn violent drug lord. Even when I was watching that show as a shitty lib I didn’t understand the hate

      In these discussions I don't see nearly enough people commenting about the fact that Walter raped Skyler like what, 10 episodes into the series?

      So for me it was that she always derailed the cool/crazy shot that was already going on, without being able to match it in the interesting department. She was like the team rocket of breaking bad (Pokémon season 1 had cool premises that always got dropped for dumb steal pikachu plots)

      I understand the hate for her. The show deliberately makes you hate her. Shes annoying! She fucks Ted! She’s just a fucking bitch all the time!

      But then as the show goes on, you realize that being “a bitch” is completely incomparable to the sort of monstrous crimes Walt is committing. Its a sort of commentary on the difference between s bad person and someone that just isn't likable.

      But people on the internet kind of glazed over that and just jumped at the opportunity to hate a woman.
