I've seen a lot of people being mad/annoyed at Manny's relationship towards The Priest and it feels like y'all are mad at MANNY and that's irksome.
Manny throws a fight to earn money for his family, never receives that money, is visually impaired in one eye to the point he has to give up his DREAM of boxing, his brother DIES, he gets revenge, joins a gang and is at the lowest he's ever been. Then BOOM The Priest shows up.
The Priest provides him emotional stability, an anchor for his despair, and is a safe space for him under the guise of religion. He's a victim who believes he deserves whatever the Priest throws his way. To get him to turn in the Priest or against him is going g to be very hard because Manny is so indebted to him.
I think its really unfair to be mad at him when its so ridiculously sad. Of course he's not as mad as the ML about the assault because Manny really feels like it's his own fault.
