Maaaaaaaan…why Rick and Morty fans gotta be like this? Why do they have to ruin the show?
A show about a super intelligent asshole telling everyone else they are pieces of shit, and you expected the fans to be good people?
Either Harmon is going double down on this (I doubt it, he seems like a bang up person) or he’s going to shun this fuckery next series and people are going to be butthurt.
What really pisses me off is how hard the show works to tell you that Rick isn’t a good person, that Morty is basically his conscience (and also more than a little fucked up), that literally everything he does is completely self-serving in some way, and yet people look up to him because he’s smart. The entire show is a huge play on the idea that being intelligent makes you somehow better than others, and how it really doesn’t, but everybody completely misses out on that core message because the think they see themselves in Rick.
