I don’t think this was a flaw in writing because it was probably intentional, but I always found it hypocritical and ridiculous Jesse (at least for most of the series) was perfectly fine with cooking thousands of pounds of crystal meth and ruining countless lives yet once kids are ever involved he loses his shit. What he does causes kids to be raised in broken homes (like what we saw in peekaboo). It causes the deaths of innocent people yet once Jesse has to kill gale he can’t live with himself. Jesse knows the destruction of what he does and he chooses to ignore it, that doesn’t make it any less evil. So what makes Jesse a good person and walt an evil scumbag? I’m not saying walt wasn’t evil or better than Jesse but they both cook crystal meth. Walt just does what he has to do and acknowledges the reality of his profession while Jesse ignores it. Walt was actually an upstanding citizen that contributed to society before the show. Jesse was always a degenerate that never made any contribution to society. Again I’m not trying to justify Walt I just don’t think Jesse is that much morally superior as people act like he is.
