#and Allura is always horrible for glaring at keith for like 5 seconds

[blanceyblance]

I will always side eye the fact that in the fandom the slights against Keith are far more heavily discussed and remembered than the times Keith had insulted someone else, specially in regards of Allura and Lance

We always read about how Allura was racist and mean when he was revealed as half galra, when most of what she did was glare and kept her distance.

Yes, that was wrong but also she is a genocide survivor who is still processing her grief, you would think people would give her more leniency

She ends up apologizing later and Keith is fine with that.

Lance teases and pokes at Keith the first couple of seasons in a childish way but we had seen than other than annoyance Keith doesn't seem to mind that much, he even jokes and is friendly with Lance

The jerkiest Lance had been was implying Keith was lying about Shiro wanting him to pilot Black, and then he spends the next seasons being fully supportive and encouraging of Keith's leadership to the point he openly admits Keith is the future.

Both of these characters ended up growing from those actions, it was actually part of their development (for Allura to see galras as also allies and friends and Lance to "put the team before his pride") and they both apologize to him or end up making up for their wrong doings with actions.

But you still see people acting like they are horrible abusers.

Meanwhile, we had Keith:

Throw in Allura's face the fact that she got "cozy with Lotor", something we saw Allura feel very guilty about

Insult Allura's death father to her face

And say the reason he chose Lance was because he didn't want to spend eternity with him after Lance had sincerely complimented him

Keith does apologize (kind of, tbh Allura deserved an actual apology) and then mades up with Lance through actions, but my point is that the fans are ready to crucify Allura and Lance but I rarely if ever see hate towards Keith for moments where he is genuinely a jerk, in fact excuses are quickly made for it or barely mentioned
