Also what Jake did in Homestuck is "bad" but it is Bad in the sense that he was literally a 16 year old boy, and he wasn't even the WORST 16 year old boy, just an average one. I think the whole point is that his friends were building up this fake version of him in their own minds when he could never meet those expectations, and it's totally normal for teenagers to just be bad at communicating. I don't think being bad at telling a girl you don't like her in that way, or wanting to break up with your somewhat clingy first boyfriend makes Jake English the worst guy ever. I think maybe some people could perhaps cut the guy some slack in that regard at least T_T
Sometimes you talk with Jake haters, and it's like he did way worse things that you somehow missed in the comic or whatever lol. This is not to say Jake English has "Never done anything wrong" either lol.
