āOmg the hate for john Rolfe is so forced and unnecessary. People diss him because they prefer John smith.ā
Or maybe people diss him because heās an awful and unlikeable character & love interest (especially compared to John smith) and considering the fact that heās pretty sexist and condescending toward Pocahontas (heās even pretty effin rude to her father when they first meet as well), is pretty controlling toward Pocahontas, doesnāt try to get to know her as a person or learn more about her or her culture, only tells her sheās beautiful when sheās dressed and acting like an English woman (he also buys her this tacky necklace that is clearly not her style and never took the time to see if that god awful necklace is her style or not which to me shows he just wanted to buy her something fancy just to show off his wealth which is another red flag right there but thatās another post or two), mopes around on his ass and doesnāt do squat to help Pocahontas when sheās literally about to be executed, doesnāt even tell Pocahontas that it was John smith who immediately jumped on his horse to save her while he was moping on his cowardly ass and deliberately knocks something over when Pocahontas and John smith are having a heartfelt reunion and conversation after being separated for so long I would say the hate and dislike is pretty reasonable and warranted
