Exactly this. There is no amount of logic that can justify what we just saw. The idea that we can just wait for the redemption is honestly a joke. Redemption requires a path back to being a decent human being, but you don't redeem your way into a happy relationship with your victim, that’s just a textbook toxic cycle rebranded as a romance. It’s wild to see people defending this as complex when it’s actually the most one-dimensional writing possible: use extreme violence for a cheap shock, then pivot to Twitter fluff to keep the shippers happy….
there was absolutely NO justification about what he’s done. no amount of logical reasoning can defend the fact that what he did was beyond toxic. whatever this story’s outcome will be, it will never change that he was, he is, and will always be a terrible being.
