Am I The Only One Who Really Didn't Take Kindly To Foggy And Karen Treating Matt Like An Addict For His

Am I the only one who really didn't take kindly to Foggy and Karen treating Matt like an addict for his Daredevil-ing? I don't think there is ever any mention about the dehumanizing effect that has on Matt. It makes it look like it is justified for Foggy and Karen to call Matt that because the writing made it want to look like he mainly goes out at night just because he's angry and likes taking out that anger on criminals/craving for violence when that's not the case. One of the main reasons he can't give up Daredevil is that his senses allows him to hear the cries for help from people every night. And doing nothing would eat away at the soul of anyone who has even an ounce of empathy in their heart, but most especially Matt who we saw drop everything even when he was in critical condition to save a little boy.

Additionally, Matt's suicide attempt in Season 3 was never addressed by anyone at all, or when he showed suicidal ideations in front of Karen during the scene with Jasper Evans and the show just proceeded like normal and focused more on having them be mad at Matt for being a bad friend and nothing more.

I suppose I'm just scratching my head at the kind of callous attitude by the show's writing of Foggy and Karen towards Matt's clear mental illness. This is not to say mental illness is an excuse for every behavior, but if the writers can have Karen showing empathy towards Frank Castle and his PTSD then they could have the same for Matt's friends for his obvious chronic depression and suicidal ideations.

Looking back at episode 4, in addition to Matt Murdock starting to understand Frank Castle’s view on morality due to Foggy’s murder, it looks like Frank is also starting to understand Matt’s viewpoint. Because even though he claims to not care about the Punisher cultist cops, it’s clear that he’s bothered by it. And, of course, Matt’s speech about Foggy’s decency and good character clearly got to Frank.

It’s interesting. Matt is starting to understand why Frank has such a black-and-white view on people. While he wants to believe that there’s good in everyone, there’s people like Bullseye who don’t deserve anyone’s pity. Meanwhile, Frank is starting to understand why Matt tries to see the good in everyone and why he chooses to be a hero. He’s bothered by the legacy he’s creating with the Punisher cult and he understands why Foggy was so important to Matt as a pillar of decency. It’s like he realized at the moment that he was the bad guy. Foggy inspired people to do good, he was inspiring people to do evil.

This almost feels like a continuation of the rooftop scene in DD season 2. But instead of yelling at each other and being all stubborn with their beliefs, they’re coming to an understanding. Now, obviously, this doesn’t mean Matt’s gonna start killing people and Frank is gonna take a vow of non-violence. But the two of them understanding each other and why they believe what they believe is a good angle to develop their characters.

Also, based on the BTS photos, this would explain why they’re fine with teaming up in the latter half of the season. DD season 2 Matt and Frank wouldn’t team up unless they absolutely had to. DDBA Matt and Frank, I can see them tolerating each other more.

the new daredevil episode (7) just made me overwhelmingly sad.

He’s lying and hiding things again and it’s hurting him so much and it’s hurting heather so much and kristen and cherri too, and i’m sad about it.

i thought the scene with heather talking to him about his trauma and then them saying i love you was really sweet, and it hurts that it doesn’t feel real for him. i bet she’s going to figure it out soon though. (or die, idk)

him putting on the glasses as soon as the conversation got serious was a good nod to how he only knows how to rely on his masks.

i hope we can get a smidge of happiness in the next episode at least. don’t get me wrong i know the show is supposed to be a matt murdock whumpfest, and i love it, but i need a bit of happy or silly matt just to keep me going, ya know?

(even the shower scene, while hot asfuck, was sad. it was clearly him distracting her from the bruises so he could wait to talk about it when he wasn’t cornered)

i'm actually very normal about most characters believe it or not, but when it comes it matt murdock i'm screaming into the void, chewing up the couch, and punching walls. he's so bullied by every single plotline. he's so pathetic. he's defined by so so much tragedy. he's such an asshole. he's plagued by catholic guilt. he is THE character. he's as beautiful as the day I lost him. i love him, your honor.
