⚠ WWK SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 7, SEASON 2 ⚠
Okay, so I just watched the 7th episode, then I entered Twitter, and as I was expecting, everyone was dissing characters like Alma or Isabel or Scooter or Catherine - BASICALLY EVERYONE WHO'S NOT RITA. And then again... it's the Lana stans...
Now, Rita gets arrested for murdering Carlo. We know she didn't do it. Okay, fine.
But my problem is, how people are praising Vern for helping her: he's only helping her because he wants the money (which is understandable, because that man is getting married AND having a child, he wants and needs to provide for his new family). And people is dissing Scooter for doing the same thing when a) Rita was LITERALLY pimping him out, b) she left him with nothing unless he did what she asked (which I'm pretty sure it's coercion) and c) he owns her nothing because she put him in that position. Also, I don't care if he's feeling something for Catherine or not, he's saving his ass, something we praise on women but... not on men??? The AUDACITY.
People are also dissing Alma (I swear, you don't need to bring up the fact she's fact to diss her) when, AGAIN, she's protecting her family. This goes beyond the Graden Club thing, Rita humilliated her, got her daughter fired, and threatened her family. I think she has every right to attack Rita. You could have pointed out how she manipulated Bertram but no, you went with the "she's hurting my poor baby". Well, she had it coming.
Also, dissing Isabel and Catherine????? Catherine has already stated that she felt she and Rita were friend and that Rita betrayed her because she was never her friend. Do we see pattern here? I say we fucking do. And Isabel... she left her to rot in jail, but we can't judge her UNTIL we know their full story. Because she was right, Rita gave her a job - as a maid. And to be fair, I hardly doubt Rita is the mastermind here, I think Isabel is smarter than what she looks like, I'm pretty sure she could have given her another job. Hell, even when it was the two of them she still treated her cousin, who apparently helped her get rid of an abusive man that was hurting her, like a maid. You don't do that to the people you love.
I'm tired of people justifying Rita's behavior, she's a bitch. And she had it coming. And no, you can't compare her to Regina, those two are way different characters, Regina had SEVEN seasons to develop, to change, to grow. Rita doesn't, and she's not that appealing in the way you may think. She's a good villain, a good antagonist, but she's not the main character, and she's not a good person. And that's okay, but what's not okay is people complaining that we feel not sympathy for her when she's that type of character. It's 2021, trust me, you're allowed to like a villain just because.
I feel a bit sorry for her, for being framed for a crime she didn't commit, but I don't think I can say much in her favor until I know her full story. In the meantime, I admit she's stylish and sassy, but she's also a horrible person.
