i dont have any pity for jinx shes a mass murderer and terrorist, yes she has a terrible past but thats no excuse.

I'm the opposite. Out of all characters in the series, I had the least sympathy for Vi (yes, even below Silco). She basically single-handedly inflicted this misery on her sister and caused her to go down that path by abandoning her, not once but twice. Counterpoint would be that Vi was only a kid herself so "what can you expect?", but she still did this to her sister of all people. The show is very well put together with how they built the characters and everything. Not something you see very often, which is why it took off as it did.

she didnt abandon her once she got knocked out both times she came for jinx, the first time she left powder just killed vander her father figure and her 2 best friends of course she would be mad. But she tried to came back once she saw poweder was in danger, marcus stopped her. Just because some1 had a fecked up childhood doesnt mean they can mass murder and blow up buildings, she needs to be stopped, either by being killed or life long in prison

Sure, fair to say that she didn't mean it and would have made amends had she been given the chance. But she did tell Powder off two times in a row when she really needed Vi to stand by her. First when she left her in the apartment and again after Powder did her best to try and save their father. She wasn't just rejected but even blamed by Vi. If you rightfully cut Vi slack here b/c she was just a kid, think of how an even younger Powder would be affected by this. In any case, there's one more episode left to go. I hope that settles it.

I don't wanna argue, btw. It's once again to the show's credit that there are no easy answers or single, obvious "correct ways of solving all the world's problems". All characters think that they're doing good and all are going about things differently (some with worse consequences, deliberate or not, than others).

I get where you are coming from and thats exactly why I love Jinx's character so much. Mental issues are often romanticizied in media and I think they did a really well job handling this with Jinx. You see, that she already has issues in the first three episode and she just doesnt get what she needs from her family which leads obviously to the big boom in episode 3 which traumatized her very heavily. And we only see that develop a lot worse through the course of the series. This show does not portray her issues as "cool" or anything, they very clearly show that her actions have consequences and everything she does because of her illness drives almost everyone else away from her. I often really like to stay away from calling those characters all sorts of bad things because for me it further encourages the stigma that comes with mental ilness. Yes, they are doing terrible things and yes Jinx would probably need some safely held therapy but they are just victims too and their experience and environment shaped them to the person they are.
