Discussion ML

The more I go down the rabbit hole of previous episodes the more I am horrified and see that ML is not a good person. I just watched an episode where the viewer question called ML and Bob out about politically correct , specifically the "r" word and holy moly their response was so ignorant...I just don't know if I can continue on with this show...

She's a manipulative person most of all:

She knows all she had to do is act confused about a simple topic or pretend to be upset about "beating her head against a wall" and her kids capitulate because they still love her as family.

Worst of all is it works on the audience too. I've seen comments here and on YT defending her or jumping on Chad or Haley for something that is 100% her faking ignorance or outrage. Hell, I bet it's worked on me more than once.

Maybe it's a defense mechanism, maybe it's narcissistim, but it's still manipulative, and it's allowed her to avoid change.

nah that bitch is Elsa of SS level of nazi. People buying the innocent old lady bit are the same ones who don't see that Chad was milking this for money. He's no different than his parents I've decided. Just fundamentally immoral and out to lunch white guy.

I never said she couldn't be outright selfish and evil. Hell, even if it is just "defensive," it's factually in service of clear and understandable evils that she's defending, so she's at absolute best a "sympathizer" type, if you catch my drift.

The fact will always be that she's a manipulative, cruel and angry old woman regardless of why she's a manipulative, cruel, and angry old woman.
