I guess obviously overidentifying with them and then excusing the character's behaviour (antisemitism, being a "nice" guy, disregard for human dignity and life etc.).
Still not my best moments, I admit.

Gotta say, Eridan didn't exactly come off as a Nice Guy to me. He never insulted anyone who turned him down (no "that bitch" "how dare she" etc), he genuinely liked the people he was in relationships with, he never lied or got passive aggressive or manipulative. He just got mopey and clingy and uncertain when broken up with, which is a sin that most people are guilty of.

I mean, he was a bit of a shithead, but in a universe that contains Vriska, he didn't really rate that high on the shitheadometer.

i agree that he didn't exactly portray those tendencies in canon. however, people tend to defend him in Nice Guy ways-- blaming feferi for his actions because how dare she reject him, etc.

Ah, that makes sense. I haven't seen any of that sort of thing, and I'm glad to have avoided it.

You missed some interesting, questionably troll secrets then back in the day.

At least not until he committed GENOCIDE.

Vriska wasn't trying to muder her entire race. He was and did.

I think Eridan is at the top of the shithead echeladder: Worldhungerfixingfertilizerdome

Everyone has their own shithead ladder! In my eyes, Eridan went wrong because he'd fucked himself into a corner, but Vriska was pretty much deliberately cruel and manipulative the whole comic through, which is much worse to me. This is just a personal view, though!

I guess it depends on measuring actions vs intentions.
