Unpopular question but why do some writers really hate Rodimus and Starscream and treat them almost similarly.?

Jk I think I know the answer.

what IS the answer then? i was wondering the same thing, but i can’t really think of a good reason why… what do you think?

I was thinking it was because that Megatron is an important figure in the franchise and writers love to pay attention to him at the expense of other characters, while a friend said that it’s because ppl hate abuse survivors.

I was pretty close bc those two are commonly intertwined.

good points! i tried to think of a reason myself a while back and the i think it might be because they are both relatively “feminine” (we see that especially in tfp starscream) and tend to use words & strategy rather than just punch anything in their way – which is apparently “cowardly” ans not, you know, common sense.
plus they kinda replace the two “main” characters – optimus prime & Megatron – which annoyed many people.
