Hey Duffle Bags, Way To Shat All Over Dacre’s Hard Work On Trying To Humanize Billy Whilst He Couldn’t

Stranger Things stans went on a mission to make everyone hate Grace Van Dien and instead earned themselves the title of most toxic and annoying fanbase on any social media platform and helped Grace earn even more defenders while everyone (even people outside the fandom) started to call them out on their shit, as they should.

Your shit backfired.

Stole this from an anti who was pissed because "trying to avenge his death" is now the only thing I will be thinking about until I see it happen

Time for something that might be a hot take to some people.

Max attacking Billy with the baseball bat is not the badass move we’re meant to see it as in the narrative. Rather, it shows that she is caught in the same cycle of abuse as Billy. Billy overreacted, but he’s under threat of violence if he doesn’t bring Max home, and he finds her in an undeniably shady situation. He’s already down after Max injects him with the tranquilizer, but Max repeats the same tactics that we saw Neil use on Billy.

“Isn’t that right? ISN’T THAT RIGHT?” “Yes, sir.” “I’m sorry, I couldn’t hear you.” “Yes. Sir.”

“SAY YOU UNDERSTAND! Say it. SAY IT!!” “I understand.” “What?” “I understand.”

don’t stay silent! do something!

sincerely, a german girl

just would like to bring up again that billy hargrove was 100% correct when he said “my 13-year-old sister goes missing all day, and then i find her with you—at a stranger’s house—and you lie to me about it.”

being showcased to relatives and family friends as a perfect child but everything that is being said about you is false and you know that either the person describing you is lying or has fabricated a fake image of you but no matter which you are strongly aware that you have failed to be the person your family desires you to be

i know we sadly didn’t get a chance to see how billy and max’s relationship had evolved from s2 to s3, not even a single scene between them without billy being already flayed but i do think we get glimpses in s3 of how things had progressed between them. 

before learning that anything could be wrong with billy there’s a lightness in her speech when he’s mentioned, which didn’t occur during s2. this, for me, is the most significant change:
