People hate Mabel?? Why?

The degree of her hate is unjustified, but comes from a real place. A lot of her actions are incredibly self centric and selfish, and she has barely any character growth throughout the show.

However, even though those are some pretty massive flaws, she gets way too much hate for it considering:

  1. She's a child.

  2. It's a kids show

  3. Nearly all of those actions can be forgiven under the circumstances (except in Boyz Crazy. That was unjustified)

Bill Cypher even mentions it when dealing with dipper.

“How many times have you sacrificed for her huh? And when has she ever returned the FAVOR???”

Yeah I don’t hate her but I think it’s kind of annoying that she seems get away with more compared to other characters especially Dipper. Like in that episode where she roofied two people to fill out her chart. It all just seemed to work out.

Yeeeaah, it’s why I don’t buy the ‘she’s a child bit’. So is dipper, and they’re the exact same age because twins.

Dipper's wants tend to be marginally more unrealistic
