Castiel was interesting at the beginning but he quickly turned into a caricature.

Cas in my opinion, started as an antagonist, as the mirror image of Ruby. He was the one manipulating Dean, he opened the panic room to let Sam out, and he did exactly what heaven told him to do which made him interesting, and compelling. The fact that he chose to help Sam and Dean, to go against heaven's orders made him even more interesting because he defied everything he knew for them. He turned on his home, on everything he knew, because he realized humanity was worth it.

That's where my issues with his character started because why wasn't that implored more thoroughly? Why couldn't they show him change, show him become more merciful and human-like without reversing it each and every time? Why couldn’t they focus on Castiel hating how weak he'd become without making jokes or giving him his powers back?

The writers could have done so much more with his character but instead, they just repeated the same cycle over and over again; he gets weaker, he miraculously gets stronger, he wants to help which means he needs to become even stronger, he fucks up majorly, he gets punished for a minute, repeat.

That said, I think it's clear that Castiel’s downfall started quickly and didn't stop until he 'died'.

Like I said, at first he was a compelling character with depth and tons of potential but as soon as season six started he started decaying, slowly losing what made him interesting until he was nothing more than a husk that could be filled with a new personality every time his character became stale.

It's obvious the writers didn't know what to do with him after season five which is why they sent him on random quests; getting out of the way but still close enough in case Sam and Dean needed him for something. Even that could have worked though; he could have been a recurring character like Garth or even Bobby. They could have explained his absence so easily too; he's needed in heaven, rebuilding what was destroyed.

But that wasn't the case. Instead, they kept him around and made him into a fool that actively made things worse for the people around him. He didn't even take responsibility for most of the things he did, not even for the few I'm certain he did on purpose.

(I'm talking about things that happened after season five, before that his alliance was with heaven after all)

Let's start with him pulling Sam out of hell soulless. There is no way he didn’t notice Sam didn't have his soul, that he didn't notice Sam was acting different because if he didn't then that means he pulled him out and left without looking back. And honestly? That just makes it worse considering he would have left his injured and incredibly traumatized 'friend' in a field without letting anyone know or making sure he was okay. It would also mean that he didn't check in on him or Dean during the time Soulless Sam walked around.

That wouldn’t be a bad thing if they kept Castiel ambiguous if they made him care about them slowly, bit by bit, but they didn't. They presented him as a part of the team, as a friend, very early on but they didn't make him act like it. He constantly acted like a comrade who changes alliances as soon as someone stronger, someone better, showed up. That didn't just happen once either, it happened multiple times.

And of course, he wanted to be stronger to help but why did he always trust people he either barely knew or knew to be evil? He trusted Crowley, someone who wasn't trustworthy at all, over his so-called friends. That, of course, didn't end well. Not only did he free the Leviathans and became Godin his quest for power but he also destroyed Sam's hell wall. That led to dozens of deaths and almost killed one of his friends. And, instead of dealing with that whole situation the writers 'killed' him, erased his memory, and wrote him out of the show for a while. And when they decided they needed him back Castiel took Sam's hell trauma, making himself suffer. That would be a great way to show his growth if the writers and characters weren't pretending it never happened in the first place. The fact he broke Sam's wall is basically never mentioned again, instead, it's always about Castiel being insane (not to mention that said insanity gets used as comedy).

After that came Metatron, an angel he barely knew, if at all. Trusting him would be understandable if Castiel didn't already know that angels are just as untrustworthy as demons. He already had to deal with angels that were manipulating and conniving (Uriel, Michael, Naomi, etc.) so why did he decide to trust Metatron blindly? Why didn't he try to find out more about him or the trials Metatron wanted to perform? And why, after Naomi told him that the trials Sam was doing would kill him, did he decide to go see Metatron on his own? I also can't decide if I believe Castiel didn't know the trials would kill Sam upon completion or not. On the one hand, he could've said Naomi was lying due to her track record but on the other hand, it didn't seem like he cared about Sam's upcoming death all that much so who knows? In the end, it didn't matter anyway because Cas, once again, lost his powers, Sam survived (barely) and the angels fell.

And then there was Lucifer. Castiel helped free him the first time by opening the panic room, something that could be excused considering he was still on heaven's side then. Still, the fact it was never mentioned he did that by anyone just goes to show how little he cared for Sam. But, this is not about that, rather it's about him freeing Lucifer the second time.

Castiel knew Lucifer couldn't be trusted. He knew what he did to Sam in the cage, intimately considering that he had taken Sam's trauma earlier. He knew Sam was still traumatized. He knew how many people had died last time Lucifer was free. He knew all of that but still decided to let Lucifer possess the body that didn't even belong to him.

Sam had been in that cage with Lucifer, his abuser, for so much longer, saying "No" over and over again while he was terrified just for Castiel to say yes after a few minutes. Sam knew Lucifer was lying, that he was just saying what they wanted to hear but Castiel trusted him anyway. Not just that, he didn't even tell them about it. He let Lucifer walk around in their home, Sam's home, without saying anything. He didn’t warn them, he didn't leave and he didn't do anything to protect his 'friends'.

Then when Lucifer tried to kill Sam, after he had already shoved his hand into his soul, Castiel finally decided to stop him. But instead of kicking him out of his body he just left and continued to let Lucifer possess him because he thought he knew better. Because Lucifer might have tried to kill Sam but he would still help them and leave them be afterward. We all know that's not what happened, that people died, that people suffered and Jack got created. All because Castiel thought he knew Lucifer better than anyone else, than Sam who spent decades with him only a few years ago.

All these things wouldn't be that bad if they hadn't made Castiel up to be family, if they had treated him like Crowley or Rowena but they didn't. They wanted Castiel to be part of Team Free Will. Still, they made him do so many things Sam and Dean shouldn't have forgiven him for, things that made him Naive and stupid. They should've killed him or had him be a once-a-season character instead of making him into what he was at the end and I am sure they would have if it weren't for some fans loudly begging for him to stay.

But what did it get them? A character that repeats the same mistakes every time he doesn't have anything to do, a character that wouldn’t even be around if the writers had stayed consistent regarding Dean’s character. Because let's be real: Sam suffered from Castiel’s actions the most, either directly or indirectly, and Dean should've killed or at least abandoned him for it.

That brings me to my next topic: the relationships between Castiel and the people around him.

Let's start with Sam and Castiel’s relationship. We all know it started with Castiel calling Sam an abomination while Sam was starry-eyed due to finally meeting an angel, a being he had believed in for years at that point. Him seeing Sam like that could have been the start of a compelling and impactful story. The writers could have built the relationship between them slowly, making Castiel’s view change from 'walking sin' to the good and kind-hearted person he was. Castiel could have questioned Heaven's ways because of Sam, because he was told The Boy with the demon blood was evil even though Sam always tried to do the right thing.

They could have built upon that, they could have shown how the two of them helped each other but they didn't. Instead, Castiel said Sam was a friend but acted like he didn't care about him at all. He didn't think he should be saved, he didn't care when he was soulless, he ignored his prayers, he destroyed his hell wall and so much more.

We all know why: because the writers and some of the fans decided Dean was better, that his relationship with Castiel would be more interesting. That decision, to me, was the noose that slowly took the air away from Castiel’s character and the confession scene was what kicked the chair out from under his feet.

I know that might sound harsh but I truly believe it to be true.

Dean and Cas were never friends, never family. At first, Dean hated Cas, thought he deserved to die because he wasn't human, because he was a monster and every monster deserves to die in Dean’s mind. Then they were coworkers, working to stop the apocalypse they both helped start and later to stop Lucifer. That's it. You could argue that they might’ve been friends after that but only out of convenience. Dean was the human Castiel latched onto at the beginning, he raised him from perdition and then he was his mission. Castiel was the friend that could help Dean with everything, every time he needed help and he was the friend that couldn’t die. Castiel didn't choose Dean, Heaven did and Dean tolerated Cas because it was convenient.

Not to mention that Dean constantly treated Castiel like trash, like he never stopped thinking of him as a monster but the writers still forced them to be friends. Dean made fun of him losing his powers, got angry at him when Castiel was too busy to come as soon as Dean called him and he abandoned him when Castiel needed him. Castiel didn't even stick up for himself, he just continued to run after Dean like an abused dog that still loved its owner. And just like the dog Castiel deserved better.

Every relationship that came after he met the Winchesters traced back to them as well. He met most of the people he knew through the Winchesters and the few relationships that were created without them were destroyed by them. It's like Castiel wasn't allowed to exist outside the Winchesters, like his pure essence was tied to them no matter what.

He never freed himself, and never tried to be someone else; he just continued to be Dean’s property. Dean was the one he spent the most time with, the one he was seeking out, the one he cared about the most. He stayed at Dean’s side through everything, only having other relationships when it furthered the narrative, losing them as soon as the story they were needed for ended. He didn't get much screentime with Jack either, because even that was given to Dean, the person who hated Jack from the moment he was created.

But still, Castiel liked Dean better than Sam, even though Sam treated him way better in comparison.

That isn't to say that he deserved Sam's kindness because he didn't. Not just because he acted like Sam was beneath him, not just because he did everything in his power to make Sam's life worse but because he didn't even apologize.

He never told anyone that he opened the panic room, not even when Dean practically disowned Sam for starting the apocalypse; something all three of them did. He didn't defend Sam when Dean blamed him for everything that went wrong and he, just like Dean, acted as if he'd always known about Lillith being the last seal.

He either purposefully rescued Sam without his soul or just ignored his injured and traumatized 'friend' while he went on his quest for power. He later destroyed Sam's hell wall, the only thing keeping him sane, to keep Dean away from him. That once again, shows that he barely saw Sam as his own person instead he was an extension of Dean; a prop.

He practically didn't care when Naomi told him Sam would die if he finished the Trials, he repeatedly kept things from the Winchesters, he went off the rails multiple times and most importantly he freed Lucifer. He freed Sam's abuser and kept it from him, and then when Lucifer started doing what he always did, Castiel made it everyone's problem. He acted like it wasn't just his fault that Lucifer was freed and he gaslit Sam into thinking it was his duty to help. And don't get me started on his monologue; telling Sam that "he was used by Lucifer too" AS IF IT WASN'T HIS OWN CHOICE. He acted lik3 h3 knew what Sam went through even though Sam had been tortured and sexually assaulted while Castiel sat around watching TV. (Sam should've punched him for that honestly)

So no, Castiel wouldn't deserve Sam's friendship but Sam would still be the better choice. But he chose Dean. He hopped from Noami to Dean, back to Naomi, and right back to Dean. In the process, he lost every bit of his character that made him so compelling until he was nothing more than 'the angel hanging around the Winchesters'.

Seeing what became of his character I can't help but wish that they killed him off. His death was set up so often, they could have just let him stay dead but no, they brought him back time and time again; diluting his character with each resurrection. They didn't give him proper, compelling storylines, they didn't develop his character in any interesting way and they certainly didn't let him exist outside of Sam and Dean. Instead, he got a bad confession of his love to Dean, something that wasn’t set up or fair to his character.

(As you can see I got a bit mad halfway through)

I will make a post about Sam as well but I don't know when. Also, if you want me to write about a different character just tell me and I'll look into it!

jensen’s quotes about samdean that piss every heller/sam hater off:

“i’m trying to mold dean into the way that i remember john being. i’ve always thought that dean would become his father at some point”

“dean would have drunk himself to death without sam”

“she (sam) would come out in a dress and dean would do this: YESSS!”

“sam makes a great wet nurse”

“dean is straight”

“d*stiel doesn’t exist”

Dean Winchester is the open wound in the body that is Supernatural. He is an infection that spreads until it poisons everything around him, no matter if It's a person or a plotline.

At first, he was just annoying and borderline abusive, something that could be explained by his upbringing, that could’ve been explored. There was potential for him to grow, to evolve beyond the toxic traits he inherited from John, to show that people can get better, that your upbringing didn't define you and for a bit, it seemed like he might. But as soon as he showed signs of becoming better, he ripped off the scab of progress and let the wound fester instead. Season after season, rather than improving, he got worse, getting more selfish, hypocritical, and abusive. Instead of healing, he became the rot at the show’s core.

The infection spread beyond just his character however, it consumed the entire narrative. Everything began to revolve around what Dean wanted, how Dean felt, and what Dean needed. The other characters stopped being people with their own agency and instead became tools, existing to serve and cater to his every whim. The story bent itself around him, sacrificing logic, depth, and complexity in favor of ensuring that Dean never had to face real consequences. It ruined the show’s potential. Instead of telling a story about how a bond like Sam and Dean’s (or even Dean’s relationships with Cas, Charlie, etc.) could help someone grow into a better person, they doubled down on Dean’s worst tendencies. Instead of evolving, he dragged everyone else down with him.

One example of how Dean’s toxicity didn’t just warp the narrative but completely destroyed a character is Castiel. Castiel represented something meaningful at the start: the idea that humanity, despite all its flaws, was still worth fighting for and that people can change and form their own opinions even though they've been controlled and manipulated before. He was proof that even among corruption and destruction, there was goodness that made it all worthwhile, that people can forge their own path if they believe in something and act upon said belief.

But, once the writers started throwing rotting breadcrumbs at the Destiel shippers, they stripped Castiel of his character and made everything about Dean. Instead of being a character with his own beliefs, struggles, and development, he was reduced to nothing more than an extension of Dean, an accessory whose only purpose was to suffer for him. And what did Dean do in return? Nothing good. He never treated Castiel as an equal. He constantly belittled and ridiculed him, acting as though Castiel’s sacrifices were either expected or irrelevant.

Castiel went from breaking free of heaven’s control, from questioning blind obedience and learning to think for himself, to willingly throwing himself into another toxic, one-sided dynamic where his needs and wants didn’t matter. He lost everything, his family, his power, his home, his life, and for what? Are we supposed to find it meaningful that Castiel’s entire existence was reduced to a last-minute, half-baked confession that Dean didn’t even acknowledge? That his death scene was brushed aside with no real grief, no impact, no weight? He deserved better than that but the writers decided it would be a good idea to have Castiel’s story amount to nothing. In the end, he was nothing but a footnote in Dean’s narrative, something that mattered for a few minutes before it lost its relevance.

But if Castiel was collateral damage in Dean’s story, Sam was the biggest victim.

From the very beginning, Sam had potential, potential for something beyond hunting, beyond the endless cycle of death and violence that consumed their lives. He had dreams, ambitions, and a future that should have been his. And every step of the way, Dean was there to tear him down. Long before the show even started, Dean was already keeping Sam small, making sure he never realized that he deserved more than a life of blood and misery. Dean wanted Sam trapped in hunting, dependent on him, tied to him forever and that pattern never changed.

He is obsessive and possessive, acting less like a brother and more like an overbearing owner who refuses to let Sam have any independence. The second Sam does anything without telling him, whether it's texting someone, making his own choices, or simply not answering a call, Dean immediately acts like Sam just opened Pandora's Box. He treats Sam’s autonomy as a threat, as if the moment he isn't constantly under surveillance, the world will fall apart.

But he's not just abusive he's also incapable of accepting his mistakes considering that Dean becomes aggressive and defensive as soon as they get brought up. Examples include breaking the first seal which was 'understandable because he got tortured', tricking Sam into getting possessed which was 'something he needed to do because he didn't want Sam to die' (no matter how much Sam wanted to), and locking Sam in the panic room to die because he'd "at least die human". Still, he never hesitates to throw Sam’s mistakes back in his face. Sam is never allowed to forget drinking demon blood, never allowed to forget trusting Ruby, even though she preyed on his vulnerability and caused his addiction to manipulate him. Dean also holds him responsible for being Lucifer’s vessel, even though that was quite literally decided by God. And yet, when Dean makes mistakes suddenly it’s not his fault, and everyone just needs to move on because they all made mistakes (especially Sam, apparently).

But Dean’s hypocrisy doesn’t stop there, oh no. Because when Sam was blamed for "freeing Lucifer," by mistake he alone was expected to fix it, but when Castiel knowingly freed Lucifer suddenly all of them needed to take care of it. The double standard is obvious and tells us the following: Dean plays favorites when it suits him, and when it doesn’t, he shifts the blame onto whoever is most convenient which more often than not, means Sam is getting blamed.

And yet, despite treating Sam like a scapegoat, he also treats him like a trophy, a possession, something he has complete control over. He needs to know where Sam is, who he's talking to, and what he's doing or he'll pretend like the world is ending.

But he doesn’t just control Sam, he's not just hypocritical and abusive, he also sabotages his storylines at every turn. I'm saying that because every time Sam had an interesting plotline, something that could have made the show richer and more compelling, something that could've made Sam stronger, Dean was there to ruin it.

Sam's demon blood arc? Reduced to a mistake Dean never let him forget about, rather than the complex story about addiction and manipulation that it could have been. Not to mention the fact that even before Ruby used Sam's grief to get him addicted Dean judged Sam for having the blood inside him in the first place; as if it was his fault Mary made that deal, as if Sam could have stopped yellow eyes as an infant.

Sam as the Boy King of Hell? Dropped without explanation and never picked up again (until years later for one minute that is). I personally think they dropped that particular arc because Dean would have been insufferable towards Sam during it which they couldn't do considering 'Dean is such a cool guy'. It was the same with Sam being psychic: Dean would never accept the fact his brother wasn't what he wanted him to be so the plotline was scrapped.

Sam's hell trauma? No need to explore it or show the lasting effects because Dean would be sad if Sam wasn't perfectly fine after his mangled soul got forced back into his body (by Dean, mind you).

Sam being suicidal? Why explore that if you can do other, more interesting things with Dean instead?

Even Sam’s relationship with Jack was downplayed. The parallels between Sam and Jack alone make it obvious that the relationship between the two of them should have been the focus of Jack’s introductory season. Sam, who spent his life struggling under the weight of what he was supposed to be, who was told time and time again that he was dangerous, that his powers made him evil, was the perfect person to guide Jack through the same struggles. But that wasn’t explored. The fact that Sam was raising the child of the man who abused and controlled him, the child of the being that essentially destroyed Sam's life and psyche even though he was probably scared to death every time he saw Jack wasn't explored either.

Jack’s entire story should have revolved around his relationship with Sam, the person who treated him with kindness, and who tried to help him even though his father was, like I said, the being who abused him for centuries. Their relationship should have been so much more but it wasn’t and why?

Because they needed to shove Dean into Jack’s story instead. Even though Sam was the one who treated him with kindness, who defended him, and who saw him as more than just a weapon, the writers made sure to include forced bonding scenes between Dean and Jack so that they could pretend Dean had always been the father figure. I'm sure they did that so Destihellers and the writers could pretend Cas and Dean were Jack's parents even though everyone who watched the show should know that isn't true no matter how much certain people might want it to be.

Alone the fact that Dean threatened to kill Jack should make that obvious.

The sad thing about all of this is that Sam was supposed to be the main character but when fans decided Dean was cooler, the writers catered to them instead of telling a story about the person that's objectively more interesting.

So in conclusion, Dean Winchester wasn’t just a toxic character; he was an infection that spread through the entire show, warping the story, ruining the characters, and dragging Supernatural down with him. Every plotline, every relationship, every moment of potential was sacrificed so that he could remain the center of attention. The show could have been so much more, but instead, it chose to revolve around the worst thing in it: Dean.

(I will make separate posts about Sam and Castiel as well)

Side note: I wrote this at 3 a.m. because I couldn't sleep and saw people waxing poetry about Dean on Twitter.

[ienjoybeingahater]

I hate Dean Winchester so much it's almost comical

[ienjoybeingahater]

I usually block anyone on Twitter who aggressively ships Destihell, but a few days ago, I decided to respond instead. I can't really remember the post but I know that I replied with something like, "Me, trying to avoid antis," and, unsurprisingly, I ended up getting blocked.

I also came across a post claiming that Castiel was the reason Supernatural lasted as long as it did. I just had to respond, saying that this wasn’t true and that the real reason behind the show’s success was the relationship between Sam and Dean. Something everyone should know, might I add. I also mentioned that the show could have continued without Castiel because why wouldn't it? That, too, got me blocked.

Gotta love how H*llers can dish it out nonstop, but the moment someone pushes back, even a little, they immediately hit block.

[ienjoybeingahater]

Just saw a Twitter thread with some of the worst Supernatural opinions imaginable. Highlights included: 'Destiel is canon,' and 'Cassie and Castiel were Dean's only real love interests.' Lisa was mentioned multiple times in the same thread, yet somehow, the woman Dean lived with and raised a kid with for an entire year doesn’t count as a love interest.

Other gems from the thread: season one is 'the worst season,' and the later seasons are 'the best ones.'

I muted the OP immediately because I have no desire to see more takes like that especially because all the comments were agreeing with them.

[ienjoybeingahater]

I don't know what I did to deserve this but my whole twitter timeline is full of Destiel and 'Dean is the greatest' posts and I hate every single one of them. Blocking the hashtags doesn't work either because people aren't using them 😭

[manwiththemagic]

Sam Winchester is such an interesting character like wdym you didn't tell your family you were hallucinating Lucifer and getting tortured because you "had bigger fish to fry" had "more important things going on" HELLO??

and he legit never talks about the true extent of what happened until he briefly mentions smth to Rowena in like S12?? S13?? S14??, to make HER feel better bc Lucifer traumatized her too. (Not for 200 years but still. Yikes.)

"I saw his real face to. It's still haunts me." OR SMTH. AND THEN HE GOES ON TO SAY HE DIDN'T TELL ANYONE BC THE WORLD JUST KEPT ENDING, AND THAT IT'D "BEEN TOO MUCH TIME" SINCE THEN??? HELLO??

SAM WHAT ARE YOU DOING BRO.

[ienjoybeingahater]

One of the many reasons why I love this man, I just wish he took care of himself once in a while.

[ienjoybeingahater]

If I see "Dean and Cas were Jack's parents" one more time I'll explode. If anyone was Jack's parent it was Sam, not Cas (he was dead though) and definitely not Dean. He treated Jack like shit and threatened him, basically immediately after he was born, because of something he couldn't comtrol.

People defending him, saying that it was out of character for him make these arguments even worse, because it wasn't out of character for Dean.

Dean treated Sam differently as soon as he found out about the Visions, something Sam had no control over. Don't get me started on the whole demon blood thing where he locked Sam into a room, on his own, because he didn't want him to live as a monster. Sam had an addiction. He needed help, and what did he get? Dean.

The same way Cas got Dean, someone who didn't care about the Civil War in Heaven and how much help Cas might have needed because Dean's problems come first. (One of the many reasons Destiel shouldn't be a thing people want to be canon)

The same way Jack got Dean, someone who hated him just out of principle, just because he wasn't human. (If I hear even one word about Dean not trusting Jack because of Jack's father I swear)

All three of them would have been better off without Dean.

[ienjoybeingahater]

Watching Supernatural after season four just hurts my brain. Every time Dean is being a dick to Sam or when Castiel is doing his holier than thou act I want to punch my screen. That feeling only gets worse when I remember what happens later and how much worse these two get.
