I’ve been on the Alien Romulus subreddit and the amount of negative and gross posts/comments about Bjorn are driving me crazy. like did we all watch the same movie??
I see a lot of comments saying: “People defending Bjorn need to get a grip, he was going to leave his cousin and rain there to die, he was a psychopath” etc, etc. 
I guess it goes hand in hand with interviews where it made it seem like Bjorn was the token bad guy, BUT LIKE?
Bjorn only ever cared about his friends, like everything he did was in an effort to save them up until he died.
• He checks on Navarro because she’s praying and seems nervous before they leave Jackson Star
• He fights off the face huggers in the room, saving Tyler and hitting them with the stick
• He’s the last one out of the room where the face huggers started attacking them and he tries his best to fight them off while the others are running
• He’s the first one who gets up and rushes to Navarro when he sees what’s happened to her. He repeatedly tries to remove it and refuses to leave her. And let’s not forget he sits with her and pets/holds her hand nearly the whole time she’s unconscious. He even turns and looks away when Tyler uses the cryo on the tail of the face hugger probably because it was so close to her neck. AND when she wakes up he’s immediately there holding her and talking softly/reassuring her
• He tells Tyler that he will let them in if they shut Andy off ((because he thought Andy was going to try and kill Navarro)) and he fights like hell to get up to where Navarro and Kay are when shit starts to hit the fan. He looks utterly heartbroken when he sees the chest burster, knowing that Navarro is dead
• THEN, he protects Kay by keeping her quiet and calm, before trying to kill the Xenomorph AND when he gets stabbed and acid starts to eat through him he begs Kay to stay away to keep her safe
I don’t think he was ever a bad person to anyone and even with Andy we as an audience learn why he feels the way he does, which doesn’t excuse it but yeah it makes sense. 
I’m glad the fanbase here on tumblr understands the depth of his character because Reddit loves to tear him apart and it pisses me off
