PB's rather questionable behaviour is why she's my favourite character. Going into the series I expected to dislike her, because I thought she'd act the way she looks. Nooope. She's really shady and sometimes pretty harsh, and I love it. Especially in contrast with how cute and sweet she looks.
You can see she does what she thinks is best, but her morality/logic is based on the 'greater good' - and she's willing to sacrifice individuals and individual freedoms for it. A perfect example is when Flame Princess overheated and FP and Finn both wound up in that big hole FP had burned through the earth. Bubblegum told Jake to block the hole, which deprived the two teens of oxygen (which stopped Flame Princess from burning). She fully intended to kill FP and probably Finn with this plan, but the alternative was Flame Princess pretty much destroying the entire planet.
Stuff like this keeps happening through the series. She's very morally grey and isn't afraid to be harsh or merciless. She's also just a lot harder and less cutesy than you'd initially expect. I personally ADORE that about her. I'm not going to defend and excuse all the bad/questionable stuff she does, because I want to celebrate it. But I think a large part of the problem is her actual behaviour and personality really conflict with what most people expect her to be. Which is a cute, simpering, brainless, helpless, sweet little love interest for Finn. She's... not really any of those things.

I completely agree! Bubblegum is almost ruthlessly pragmatic and I think that makes her a very interesting character
