I think people give Breaking Bad way too much credit in convos about art glorifying violence. If that show wasn't meant to make audiences cheer for Walter White, then the show failed spectacularly IMO. (This is a tangential, subtweet-y response to the current Joker discourse.)

And sure we can say "All those viewers just didn't GET IT," but at what point does that happen on such a scale that we start to wonder if maybe the show didn't "get" how glorification works, how media glorifies bad men, how people respond to such anti-heroes if they're "badass"?

I was unknowledgeable of the issues people had with Skylar White. I think Skylar is a hypocritical character in some ways, but not because of the vile reason people have. For instance, in near the shows end, she’s entirely occupied with wanting to have a normal life again (1/2)
