Finally Someone Said It

finally someone said it

The fact that so many of y'all think Rue is spilling the tea and that she is right is really f*cking concerning. Especially in 2x05.

Like clearly either y'all have a weird view of what life is about or y'all are just extremely dumb. The parasocial relationship with Zendaya is really starting to show right now for so many of you.

Rue is literally putting her whole family through hell and downright being abusive during all this episode yet y'all are rooting for her ?! Not rooting for her as in to get better, rooting for her thinking she's right ?! Are y'all insane ?! I don't even need to explain this, it makes no absolute sense to even think something like this.

Oh and Jules! Jules does small mistakes here and there (despite us knowing WHY she does it), and when finally she does something really not cool like cheating on Rue despite again knowing why she does it (and the three of them were literally kissing each other in the same room moments before and some have done worse things than what she did) she is the monster and villain of the show but Rue gets to get away with everything she does ? We may know why she does it but we also know why Jules does the thing she does, there is no villain in their story. At no point was this portrayed as a healthy thing. Rue putted all the pressure on Jules about being clean and how everything depended only on her. She still did it in season 2 and even lied while doing it, pretending she was clean when she wasn't. And Jules told her she didn't want to deal with something like this yet Rue still does it and expects her to comply to her every need 24/7 and being aware all the time ? How mental is this!

Yes she should have been more careful in some instances and she is at fault for her cheating but she was also going through her problems and this doesn't justify the hate she's getting right now!

This "Rue is bad yes but Jules is horrible" is pissing me off. It's Nate and Cassie all over again, he manipulated her in a moment where she was vulnerable knowing full well what he was going to get. Cassie has her own faults in the situation but let's remember who started it all and WHY.

And as for Elliot, he is also a drug addict who is just as irrational in his choices as Rue is. There was no grand master plan of his and he is not the mastermind behind some tactics of pushing Rue towards a downfall.

She did this herself. She went to Laurie. She chose this. With all the sympathy, compassion and understanding I can have for her, the suitcase and what it meant is her fault. She knew what she was getting into.

And if I have to hear after this episode that Euphoria is romanticizing drugs or the usage of it, I swear I will go feral. It never has and I don't see how y'all cannot see that.

The show has flaws but this is not one of them.
