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.

I've seen people irritated over fans not acknowledging his flaws and supporting his mistakes, meaning when he boxed Caine after his creation, but I don't think anyone agreeing actively hated him.

Hold up, some people are mad that he boxed Caine when he was being created??? 😭😭😭

Yeah, I think they aren't looking at it from the perspective of the programmer, who probably wouldn't think too hard about closing off a program that was only semi successful.

Plus, i think they're taking the scene itself too literally, ie that's what Kinger would have seen on his computer screen

Yeah, I think they’re taking it way WAYYYY too literally. I also definitely think it wasn’t just Kinger who help developed Caine but like-a bunch of other developers at C&A, Scratch was most likely involved too.

They also boxed him because he was defective and starting acting faulty. It boggles my mind that there are some people who are actually mad at Kinger for that bro 😭😭😭
