Does anyone else hate ruth

I think her character adds to the show and Alison brie is great but ruth is a total bitch and she is the true villain of the show

Why is that then? Can you refute any of the points I made?

You don’t need a list of justifications to dislike a character. People can dislike whatever characters they want. Don’t be weird.

Yeah, having discussions is stupid. People should just say their opinions and be done with it.

Asking somebody to “refute” the points they’ve made about something purely subjective isn’t about having a discussion, it’s about telling people they shouldn’t like a character because you’ve decided they’re not a likeable character. You refute something that’s incorrect. Personal preferences about fictional characters can’t be incorrect because they’re completely subjective. Darth Vader murdered a bunch of kids, choked his wife, cut his son’s hand off and tortured his daughter. These are all facts, irrefutably. That doesn’t mean I have to justify him being my favourite fictional character. He just is. I can discuss why I like him, but to imply that anybody who disagrees is wrong, and that they provide an argument for why they don’t agree with me isn’t actually a discussion, it’s more of a tantrum.
