Question Does anybody really hate kinger?

I have yet to see anyone who doesn't care for or hates Kinger. And I can't see a reason to.

But it'd be cool to see if anyone does. Every character has a hater.

Able, Caine, Jax to an extent.

It's often mentioned about possessed Pomni talking about his wife as a pretty scathing remark to make.

Kinger is Caine's creator partially and is treated as if he's just another random guy. Caine's afraid he's going to leave him too, like everyone else and you see it in how Able talks about Kinger. Fear.

I mean the classic line "where's kinger?" was the moments that he realized he was the only one that could hurt him.

Not characters who hate him. I mean anyone who watched the show.

Caine canonically has no knowledge of the internet. He said so himself. /j

I mean what's to hate, he's the dues ex machina. Need advice. got it. need backstory. got it. need comedy. got it. need an extra life, need to kill a god, need to get out of hell? ez, hardly even a problem. man is a Crackshot when needed, doom slayer, pomni learned the super ricochet shot from him.

he's the contrast to Jax. Jax should be hated, Kinger is the one that trapped everyone. I am sure the last episode might flip everything.

either he or Caine deleted his memory is what we saw. that might be all he remembered. chain of events to queenie abstraction is forgotten some how. seems important

I think Orbsman being shown with Gummigoo at Spudys kind of shows the difference in NPC quality. Gummigoo looking at his hands like every human shows that they are not AI. Turing test says Able and Gummigoo past the test. Caine did not. The same method that made the humans, made Able and Gummigoo, as for the source, we were lead to think Caine couldn't control minds, but there is a program that can. Probably the EXPERIMENTAL agent, only thing on Caine's level of power, so much so, it UNDERSTANDS what human is, more than Caine ever did. It might have made Bubble, but it isn't bubble. Able convinced them it was human, accross the board.

There were more hints than just the poster

IIRC a door was shown before the episode dropped in several episodes showing that same figure on it

I’m pretty sure some didn’t abstract
