For a guy fighting against terminal cancer with no hope of help, he sure was quick to use euthanasia on someone that could have had lots of options in treatment.
Surely losing the bagage and making the money he needed to setup his family was the priority in that case?
Jesse was a tool, he needed that tool to achieve his goals in a limited time frame, rehabing two addicts is time consuming and difficult under the best circumstances.
A bit of a sociopath take sure, but Heisenberg may have been one in the end.
Just because there is a high priority present doesn’t magically make it ok to throw your humanity out the window… Why do I have to explain this!? Are you a sociopath?!
That ENTIRE SHOW was about how he had many chances to choose to not be a piece of shit. Every spiral was because of him. He is, in fact, a terrible person, and the fact you cannot understand that is concerning. Having one singular noble goal does NOT magically absolve him of all of his terrible decisions.

this is exactly the struggle of the early 21st century.
IMO Walt saw that he was losing control over Jesse and he didn’t like that. He did what he did to Jane in order regain that control. I dont think it was an act of altruism.
Walter White did nothing wrong.
Some might call him a hero

The only terminal cancer worth mentioning around here is MS-DOS.

That was, in fact, wrong.

I think you’re misreading the comment, they clearly were speaking about Walter’s point of view and motivations.
He didn’t even have a noble goal, that was the excuse. All he did was because he wanted to.
My original reply was joking about killing Windows not being wrong, then obviously we’ve pivoted into talking about the actual show.
Two separate sentiments entirely.
Walter was a monster who put his own ambitions above others needs, safety and lives. You happy I cleared that up?
I’m sure “she used windows” will hold up in court
I want to know the general opinion on this:
spoiler
Was Walter trying to save Jesse from going down a spiral of hard drugs or was he just trying to keep Jesse clean for work?
The other option is that he is just an ass and he kind of wanted to see her die.
He was eliminating a rival, nothing more
When I saw this scene I kind of saw him realising both were a big win for him personally which was why the decision was made
BTW not sure if it’s just my client (eternity) but your spoiler tags didn’t work
Mlem doesn’t render these either
It is your client, the tag renders correctly on browser and Voyager
Weird, I’m using eternity (nightly) and it rendered fine
Possible they haven’t updated, or something with your OS or a dependency is different.
I always inclined myself for the first one… but it could be just me trying to still see a human being in WW.
About the spoiler, i cant see it either. I thought it was a Boost only issue. Will add a better sign for the unspoiled to come.

I like this take. I think it’s much more consistent with the character.
IIRC he passed up a full ride of chemo treatment, and his family getting taken care of by his rich friend all to serve his ego.
I don’t think they were being serious. There’s plenty of wrong things he did.
I have like zero ability to determine when people are joking, and the internet only makes it worse :/
