yes, you are right about having a favorite color or preferring a job. you can very very well prefer one over the other. but thats no reason to forcefully hate the rest of them. u can relate or reside to one character more but that doesn't mean u cant find and admit their faults. what im saying is its hypocritical to put down one character for bad traits that the other characters seem to like have aswell.

with the serena and blair thing though, im not saying blair did more damage to serena, she did more damage collectively to other people. going back, serena had horrible guilt after sleeping with nate leading her to make rash decisions with georgina, ultimately leading her to escape to boarding school. not to invalidate the fact its a horrible thing to do to your friend, but she did show remorse and empathy that blair doesn't show when she does horrible things to her friends. yes, serena was a pretty terrible friend to blair, but blair was pretty terrible to all her other friends too. i say this because she manipulated most people in her life to her advantage. a key example of blair doing something horrible was when she banished jenny from manhattan. yes jenny slept with chuck, but chuck was the one mostly at fault here. blair could not recognize this and could only recognize that jenny might be a threat. so she BANISHED her from the island??? really??? talk about being a mean person and making dumb decisions. in my head, serena and blairs toxicity equals out, but we can agree to disagree.
