a. those "actions" were racism
b. it is the be-all end-all of tommy's characterization, because it's all the characterization he has! he's barely in any other episodes! we care about the main characters because a part of their Main Character Arcs is working on themselves and their flaws. tommy is half of a recurring character! he doesn't matter! y'all will go to hell and back defending this random failed guest character who is, by all accounts in the show, not a very good person, and honestly, it makes you look a little silly.
Saw someone yapping about Tommy’s actions in Chimney Begins like are you guys not tired of rehashing an episode of television that aired over five years ago and took place in canon 20 years ago as the be all end all of characterization. I’m gonna start talking about all the characters this way. Hen cheated on Karen in 2018 idk if they should be adopting kids together :/ Buck should definitely never be with Eddie because of his womanizing past, and for that matter if they got together what if Eddie fucked off to join the army? You know, we never got him disavowing the actions of the US military on screen. Bobby could relapse and kill the whole Grant family so I just really don’t feel comfortable with bathena :(:(
#you all defend him because he's one half of your latest tumblr yaoi pairing#but he is irrelevant in the grand scheme of things#and i like buddie but that's not what matters to me here#tommy is just not a good person#and when all you have of a character is shreds of characterization#the shreds of which have already been cherry-picked from what is mostly racism and bullying#i just wonder why people care about him so much if not for the fact that he's dating buck#(badly at that. extremely badly)#911 abc
