It's Been A While Since I Watched Supernatural, So Don't Take My Opinions As Gospel Or Anything. But

It's been a while since I watched Supernatural, so don't take my opinions as gospel or anything. But I think Dean is self-hating to the point of narcissism in some ways. Don't get me wrong, I empathise with Dean and understand why fans largely do too. But his self-loathing warps his perception and becomes the centre of EVERYTHING and at times that really has ripple effects on those around him - particularly Sam.

Take their childhood, Sam has a right to mourn the fact that he didn't get a normal childhood. He's allowed to be angry that he didn't get a home, a present father, a stable community, and consistent education. But whenever Sam attempts to express his complicated feelings about his childhood, Dean immediately interprets it as ' oh I was supposed to look out for you. Are you saying I failed? Are you confirming I'm worthless?' which grinds the conversation to a complete halt. Because of Dean's intense self-criticism, Sam can never really be 100% honest with him or ask for support with his own issues, especially regarding their childhood. As anything outside of 100% gratitude just becomes another stick for Dean to beat himself with, and the conversation is immediately derailed.

Not only does Deans self-hatred mean that Sam's expression of his own experiences are pretty consistently shut down. In some ways, I think Dean strips Sam of his autonomy - he's so self-loathing, he sees every decision Sam makes as being about/a reaction to him. A good example of this is Stanford. Rather than understanding Stanford for what it was, an attempt by Sam to carve out a better life from himself and escape hunting. Dean views it as betrayal or abandonment, some re-affirmation of his own belief that he's not worth caring about. Rather than understanding it's a rejection of hunting, he sees it as Sam rejecting him. To Dean, Sam isn't attempting to find a better life, he's punishing the family.

Overall, it's interesting that people largely and rightfully sympathise with Dean due to his self-hatred. However, I don't see as much discussion about how his self-hatred doesn't just hurt him, it hurts those he's close to, as it colours his interpretation of their every action. Dean's self-loathing is always the biggest thing in the room and that has consequences.

i do not blame dean for not noticing sam had been bodyswapped with a teenager for a whole day, even though sam knew immediately when dean was replaced by a shifter. it’s unfair to hold dean up to sam’s standards. he did his best. not his fault sam got the brains the brawn and the beauty

This video is honestly amazing and is something I’ve been saying for years 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️ thank you for posting this

https://youtu.be/8Bw7nEP1x80

This video shows so much of why I hate Dean a lot and don't understand how people actually think he's this great guy. Like I really don't get how people like him unless their seeing him as an antagonist. It just makes no sense. The begining shows how sexist he is from the beginning of the show and yet people call him a feminist? He constantly abuses sam and Castiel and yet people glorify those relationships? Like how?
