I wasn't a huge fan of the final two episodes but I really did not get that about Floyd at all.

What she did was entirely different from what Simone did. The issue isn't betraying the "criminal underworld" the issue was betraying the family. Floyd did what she did to save her family (and to use the police to help take out some people). She was the leader in a time of great change in their family. It isn't her fault Otto is a sexist asshat. Bear may have killed Simone without telling her, but I don't see that as a show of her not being in control.

Considering she had Otto fucking everything up (over and over) she did the best she could.

By Otto, do you mean Dodd? I agree, she had a lot on her plate. And it's not that I didn't think she was great - she had some really compelling moments in the first half of the season.

And there's also the part where her husband fathered a bastard (Hanzee) with the Native American maid. I mean, that's obviously not her fault, but I just feel like she wasn't respected by anyone in her family. Would Bear have killed Simone in secret if his father was still in charge? I think she had remnants of power leftover from Otto and the family name, and she wielded it as best she could, but I don't know if she could have sustained control for much longer, if everyone hadn't died.

Shit yes. I meant Dodd.

Was it confirmed that Hanzee was his son? I know there were some fan theories about it but I did not think it was confirmed.

I think Otto would have killed Simone. But Bear did because he was mad that Simone was the reason Mike and the gang knew that the homestead would be unprotected.

I think with Dodd's death should would have a better chance of staying in control. Bear seemed to be ready to follow and support her. And I think everyone else would have followed Bear.

Oh, I didn't know that Hanzee being a Gerhardt was a fan theory, oops. I guess it just seems very convenient that we don't know why Hanzee is even working for the Gerhardts or his origin story, and they just happen to have a Native American maid who is age appropriate. But yeah, it was never explicitly stated.

(Feel free to ignore this, but there's a seriously great podcast on Fargo that brings up a lot of these topics. I highly recommend it, if you're into that sort of thing. Their episode on the finale is particularly interesting: http://baldmove.com/fargo/210-palindrome/)

I actually have that podcast downloaded! I just haven't gotten around to listening to the most recent episodes. :(

I love their Walking Dead and Game of Thrones ones.

Same, especially since I totally agree with their opinions about The Walking Dead (and Fear The Walking Dead). I actually made a Bald Move/Watching Dead secret a while back. They are my go-to TV podcast.
