Is this Dumbing of Age? 'Cause that's how I've been feeling about Ruth in this most recent arc.

Although I suppose it's not, because the author isn't defending her having been a horrible bully, that's been all the people in the comments calling for Rachel's head because Rachel called Ruth out on being a violent, abusive, bully.

I don't think it is. Also, IMO it was the way Rachel called Ruth out that bugged me. Mostly because she stated openly that redemption is a lie as if it were fact, which didn't just hurt Ruth but is also clearly getting to Amber as well.

I wouldn't be as bothered by Rachel calling out Ruth by itself if it weren't for the collateral damage of doing it openly in public not caring who else heard her anti-self betterment spiel.

Yeah, that's my view of it, too. Rachel has a right to be angry with Ruth for the way she treated everyone, but to explode at her in that way right after she got out of the hospital for her suicidal depression was over the line. She doesn't know about Amber's issues, so although her words clearly hurt her too, I can't be too mad about that 'cause again, Rachel had no idea about that. She DOES know that Mary is a rancid bongo from hell who's partially responsible for Ruth's mental health decline and was openly gloating about it, so saying all that in front of her was pretty shitty, too.

Fair point, but most of the commenters weren't concerned with the other people Rachel's words were hurting, they were basically saying "how dare she tell Ruth that she's an abusive bully?! Doesn't she realize Ruth just got out of the hospital?!" as though Ruth didn't have being told that she's a piece of shit coming.
