looking at the account's history I'm pretty certain its a long-game bit but satire is dead and buried in a ditch somewhere and americans really do think like this

I watched Breaking Bad recently and one of the things I knew going in was that Skyler was supposed to be an "annoying bitch" because the show needed to make you hate her.
Imagine my surprise when she just reacts very authentically to being forced into a series of impossible situations. I can't defend smoking while pregnant and being aware of the potential effects, but most everything else she does is totally understandable given what (and who) she's dealing with.
Bonus BB hot take: Everyone hates Marie but I love her she's one of my favorites
Bonus bonus BB hot take: Walt is obviously a monster for most of the show's run but I think people sometimes go too far dunking on people for sympathizing with him given how the premise is overwhelmingly set up to have you sympathize with him, then have that sympathy rot into disgust and pity alongside his transformation. Yeah he's not some sigma to idolize but you are supposed to feel sorry for him
Bonus Better Call Saul hot take: Jimmy did a whole lot of bad things and made bad choices but I still think he was failed by many of the people in his life and if he'd had a better support network things wouldn't have gone down like that
ya how else is skyler supposed to react? is she supposed to go "oh ok walt, thats cool. keep making meth i guess"
She's supposed to have a brief but demure and non-disruptive struggle with morality before saying "I may disagree with your decision to cook meth but I'll fight to the death for your right to do it", at which point all of Albuquerque claps and Walt hands her a crisp $100 bill

Do... do they not understand the concept of "acting"?
Personally I love people who literally shit their pants at the thought of someone smoking a marijuana, those are my favorite non annoying people for sure

I don't see how they bungled the conclusion. Everybody fucking hates his guts at the end. His own son spits on his offer of money and tells him to die. Even Jesse rejects his attempt at cathartic martyrdom and tells him to do it himself. He dies alone, in a pool of his own blood, taking solace in his vengeance because it's the only fucking thing he has left.
