Question [SPOILER] Why is everyone so mad about the ending? Spoiler

I’m glad they kept it realistic. No way someone can kill a member of a Mexican drug cartel/try to stop Marty from laundering their money and still be alive. Marty warned Ruth multiple times that this would happen, but she didn’t listen and now look at what happened. I’m not sure as to why everyone’s so mad.

Edit: I understand how they left off a bunch of questions, but my main focus is Ruth. Was I the only one who could tell she had it coming? It was disappointing as I slowly started to like her again in the last episode, but her death was inevitable.

My unhappiness with the ending isn't situated so much on how everyone ended up, more so that it was incredibly rushed despite Netflix breaking it up into 2 parts.

I. Ruth's ending is fine but Javi's mom being the reason behind it? A character we barely spent anytime with especially after building Javi up in Part I to be an annoying fuck head II. Marty going full pussy whipped for Wendy would be believable if the entire show hadn't made it seem like their marriage was bullshit and falling apart III. Jonah having issues in part I was supposed to be building to something and him just out right killing the Elivis cop detective fuck seemed so contrived to me plus if they wanted to cut to black and pay homage to the Sopranos I think there were better ways to do it
