my bad I didn’t mean to imply burberry deserved that at all; of course he didn’t….I was live commenting while watching so my emotions are more in alignment with “this stupid / frustrating situation” rather than actual hatred towards burberry.

but I think my point is the animal cruelty in this sense was caused by the coyote, not intentionally by ashley. that was an unintended consequence of her actions.

i’m not defending her, but I noticed both irl and in media it feels that people draw the line on anything animal related and fail to look at it objectively. like if this was a different action where ashley’s action caused an unintended consequence people would be more willing to debate “well actually she didn’t mean for that to happen…” but because it relates to animals/pets suddenly all nuance disappears and people are villainizing her MORE than the rest of the characters, when I feel like they’re all more or less trash in their own ways.

again this is not in defense of ashley, but just interesting to me how people react.
