Can we stop constantly hating on Sheldon?

Maybe you can, but I can't. Don't know about Young Sheldon, but I HATE the other show. I just cannot like it for whatever reason and Sheldon is one of the main reasons. I just find him so annoying.

Pop Culture Detective’s The Adorkable Misogyny of The Big Bang Theory is a good video essay on (at least why I hate) the show.

I have heard Young Sheldon is actually better, but it’s not exactly working from fertile soil, and it sounds like a lot of character growth moments that happen in Young Sheldon are seemingly forgotten by the time the main show rolls around.

Young Sheldon isn't actually a prequel is why.

The one fan theory I think kind of redeems the show is that, based on the background math from the original, Sheldon is working on the physics behind creating an artificial black hole. The theory goes the research succeeds, rips apart that reality, and eventually the alternate universe is born as Young Sheldon doing almost the same things but butterfly effect yadda yadda

The best part of the theory is when they get spaghettified by their own research

I'm not a big fan of the shows either, but I just can't being myself to hate Sheldon. Yes, he is annoying, but I feel it's more that he doesn't understand why people see him in this way rather than him willfully acting annoying..

Then why does he do that smug smile when he's being annoying?

Because he won even though he doesn't understand the larger reasoning behind it. He's simple,like a child, in terms of emotional maturity

Yeah, that shitty show is one of the reasons people hate autistics.

People hate us regardless; I am more pissed that the show is basically a caricature making poking fun of our struggles.

No.

sheldon is an insufferable prick and everyone who's ever said I should like the show because I'm just like that fuckless asshat should have a cactus up the ass.

I like young Sheldon (the show), but not Sheldon the character.
