So which is it? Did Bruce treat everyone like that or was he only super mean to Steph bc of the writers? Like I’m tired of the excuses being made, if it was one and done whatever but the way Bruce treated steph did impact her story and then changing stephs personality to golden retriever blond doesn’t change that at all lmao

#fans when the character flaws are socially unacceptable 😖😖😖😖#like yeah a lot of tim and Bruce’s writing did reflect racism classism and misogyny of the writers #that doesn’t make their impact on the characters they were talking to any less racist misogynistic or classist #and i genuinely think choosing to ignore it in order to preserve ur image of ur white fave whilst completely changing the way steph Duke #Damian cass etc. behave is more racist than the writing #this is just to me #to ME changing the things tim said and making Steph a ditzy Girlboss blond is more misogynistic than ANYTHING they could’ve written #at least they had a point where growth could happen and the possibility to give Steph a backbone #y’all just say tim is a coffee addict and go #and It’s the personality shifts that bother me the most #like this most recent Damian is ass sorry #like in canon making his relationship with Bruce good or closer than it actually was….#and ppl saying Bruce changed post death like no he hugged Damian once lmao #like that didn’t change a damn thing between them before #and if it was presented as codependency and trauma bonding whatever but it’s not they just act like he was always a difficult fave #which fuels racist fans who already thought that even more #yuck #and every single personality shift that happens is to prop Bruce up and by extension tim bc the meanest thing dc does to him is nothing #like y’all think tim is most hated NOT true #he’s badly written in the sense that his personality becomes being the perfect soldier for Bruce #which y’all play into by doing the same shit downplaying everyone else but making him pissed about it #get real #if I see another fic or hc about how Damian actually can’t withstand torture or needs Tim’s help to hack smth 😭#y’all can’t stand that Damian IS talented it’s so sick like his whole issue is that he’s a kid with kid emotions who knows how to do all #this shit and mentally knows he ‘should’ behave differently and fails in an effort to go towards that bc he doesn’t take him still being a #kid into account UNLESS it’s an advantage. saying ur a better writer than dc by saying Talia was play fighting? ok…#when ppl are like ‘Talia/Ra’s would never respect a kid enough to do XYZ…’ THATS THE POINT!!#anyways sorry tiktok vid pissed me off this went everywhere
