I am also a libra who loves Gamzee as a character but has thought at times that he is indeed, the Worst Person. Now, I've heard the arguments, and I get what people mean when they say he's black/poor/neurodivergent coded, and I've actually had long conversations with ppl about this. My take is - The lack of attention and dialogue from him recently helps Goddamn None. Cal has obviously affected him, but we all agree Bro is at fault in a similar situation; Cal just exaggerated his worst traits.

I know bro, i just didn’t think it was 2013 anymore

Thank you for still fighting the good fight against the Gamzee apologists, so many of us have just gotten so tired of having to re-explain the same points over and over again.

Well, I have this discussion once or twice a year so I’m pretty used to it

First of all, I just want to say thanks for the hard work you guys do! Secondly, I'm just curious if you, as people who have put a great deal of time into knowing Homestuck, would recommend it to someone who knows nothing about it? Would you say it'd be better or worse to get into now that its past the insane height of popularity it once reached?

There are ups and downs to getting into it now.

You’ll miss the sense of community. The fandom used to be so much more tight knit and fun.

But you also won’t have to deal with the hordes of fans at every convention and all the bucket phase kids.

But yes, I’d recommend it. I’d always recommend it, Homestuck is one of the best pieces of fiction I’ve ever come across.

What's you're zodiac sign?

To quote the great Dirk Strider:

It seems you think I am a fucking douche.That’s your opinion, I guess. That’s cool. 

tbh i dont know why people even have arguments over liking/disliking a character, people can hate who they hate and love who they love does it actually m a t t e r

That’s not what this argument is about tho. It’s about whether Gamzee is a good or bad person, not about whether I like him or not.

Stop being so negative?? Hating on a character you dislike has nothing to do with hs facts

I enjoy Gamzee, I think he’s a great character, but he is a bad person. This has nothing to do with me disliking him.

Think Eridan will ever get a redemption? Or is he to far gone in the douche camp?

He got his redemption, kinda, in the form of Erisolsprite. He apologized to Fef. That could be considered redemption
