Is Negan a truly bad guy?

MyNameIsCharlie · December 10, 2016, 12:47:46 AM

I mean he is bringing society back together. Is it ideal? No. But could the world be put back together perfectly after a zombie apocalypse?

Think about it. Everything has gone to shit. The only thing that keeps you alive is the sheer will to survive. Then you meet Negan. He gives you a place in the world and a place and role in it. Sure, he's cruel. He takes a lot. But you have safety and rules to live by. Moreover, he's predictable. Give him his due and you live. Break them and pay. Is that really any different than how it is now? Lose your job and you lose your ability to pay bills or get healthcare. The only difference is the timeframe.

My point is the Walking Dead writers are villainizing what makes us, us. We follow rules or pay. We have people over us we may not like. But life goes on. And we live.

There was a pretty good post on Reddit about how the situation in each season represents a different age of civilisation, including Negan.

Negan took Rick killing a fuck ton of his men surprisingly well.

Don't forget he also got rid of that one guy who had the guts to betray Rick.

Buddy, are you still there?

Fuck Negan. Just finished episode 3 and I already hate him.

"Hehe I said pee-pee LOL"

apparently he's 12 years old, which would make sense to why he's so childish, violent, and obsessed with himself

SecondClass · December 10, 2016, 04:41:38 PM

also, of course he's a rapist, too

can't be well liked in america without that

I don't care what bullshit justifications the comic spins for Negan's misogyny - in the show Dwight's wife was given the choice to marry Negan or have him die, pretty much. She's being forced into giving "consent", which is rape.

Side note though: Ezekiel is an amazing character. S7E2 was easily one of the best ones so far, KE's whole "life is life" speech was so good

No, in the show, Negan wanted to marry Dwight's sister-in-law. They ran away and got the sister-in-law killed. Negan took Dwight's wife as compensation. She can LEAVE AT ANYTIME, and no harm will come to Dwight, as the debt was repaid. Instead, they fucked behind Negan's back and Negan melted Dwight's face with a hot iron.

There is nothing stopping Dwight's ex from leaving Negan, besides free hand-outs.

Rewatch the episode, moron. Negan was about to kill Dwight before she stepped forward and offered to be Negan's wife.

I actually kinda like Negan. If only he hadn't killed Glenn and Abraham he would be my favorite character by far.

"But then Sherry says she will marry me if I let Dwight live"

Sounds like its consent. It was her idea. Negan isn't forcing her, and nor did he say "Fuck me or Dwight dies". How are you going to enjoy this show? You know Negan is a main character right? He's still friends with Rick in the newest issue that came out this month. He's gonna be on the show for at least four more seasons.

I didn't care for Abraham, and Glenn's death is on Daryl.

Agreeing to this is rape. What Sherry said isn't consent, it's forced consent. Being someone's sex slave so your loved one isn't killed. The fact you think she made an uncoerced decision there is appaling.

And I don't care if a meh character like Negan sticks around to boost the ratings. He's an entertaining enough psycho to watch, and he doesn't bring down the show or anything, but all these basement kid fanboys he has who think he's some cool moral guy are annoying as hell.

Glenn's death is 100% on the person who murdered him.

A mad man with a gun tells you not to do something or he will kill you, do you do it?
