Negan Origins has me... angry?

Spoilers obviously.

I wasn’t excited for this episode because I thought they would gloss over what Negan did.... and well they did in a way.

They never mention his wives, the coerced sex (rape), JDM says Negan didn’t want to kill anyone but had to show his rules? Then why did he laugh and mock them? Why did the saviours kill people at every new group they found? Why did he take photos as trophies?

I wanted them to focus on the fucked up shit he did because during his half assed “I’m nice to kids redemption” arc he never once showed remorse and I thought, wel maybe the show wants us to forget what he did?

Wanted this episode to prove me wrong. Prove that the show wants us to remember what he did.

They even gloss over why Daryl punched Negan and caused Glenn’s death. Negan taunted Rosita when he found out she loved Abraham, daryl defended her.

They showed when he tried to kill Carl but don’t talk about it? Don’t mention his hypocrisy? Don’t mention how hes clearly mentally unwell.

I could buy into a negan redemption IF they made his character address all the fucked up shit he’s done.

Did they even mention how he wanted Maggie as a wife?

They play it off as if it was all just ricks group misunderstanding the situation, when it was really just negan being an evil pos.

They also don’t show how creepy Negan is with kids. He showed off sex slaves to Carl, a 12 year old. He taught a 10(?) year old boy who he just met what “nut tapping” was? I mean if I was his mother and saw this 50+ year old stranger teaching my son THAT, I’d freak out. That’s creepy.

“Negan has a code and he follows it, dont kill people who don’t deserve it, never kill kids.”

Proceeds to butcher Glenn and Abraham. Allows his men to kill people on the road (Daryl, Sasha, Abe). Allows Dwight to kill Denise, allows Simon to kill kids at Oceanside, bombs Alexandria knowing they have kids, kills a 16 year old at Hilltop.

“Someone people think he’s a villain but” no fucking buts. He is. He’s an evil pos. Man I hate these showrunners so much.
