Pink

"There's one last thing I need to do. No one can ever find out we did this. I never want to look back. So, for my last order to you as a Diamond, please, let's never speak of this again."

The show was extremely unfair to this character and I take it as a lesson on how a content creator shouldn't be influenced by their fandom mid-story. Notice how all of Pink's crappy decisions pre-S5E18 stem from a lack of self-worth, an inability to get validation from her family, and just plain not thinking her actions through, while all the really awful stuff was written after the fandom decided she was Literally Satan. She was abused and the show was happy to give a get-out-of-jail-free pass to her abusers while condemning her way past the original scope of her wrongdoings - all in a show that was originally about how nobody was perfect, everyone makes mistakes, and you should never give up on someone because they always have the chance to be better than they are.

Tl;dr, please stop telling me about how Pink was the worst person ever. It's why I quit the fandom and remembering the whole thing just makes me uncomfy.
