Possibly controversial opinion: when it comes to those “evil toxic masculinity characters”, such as Patrick Bateman, Walter White, Tyler Durden and so on, I don’t think it’s really any more “media literate” to just deride them as bad people and stop there. Of course treating such characters as aspirational does show piss poor comprehension but I also think you’re not fully engaging with the text to say “this man is a BAD PERSON” and stop there. And in a lot of cases I think that it’s at the detrimental of actually examining such characters because you’re stopping to scream I DONT ENDORSE THIS every five seconds.
