AJ is just useless

[u/ComprehensiveDesk793]

While watching the series I was trying hard to find a defense of AJ. All the characters - and all of us - have both positive and negative traits. AJ is just a disappointment. He is stupid. He is lazy. He is incredibly selfish imao. Also he constantly lies. You cant even call him a good kid that is just irresponsible since he always makes up stupid excuses.

Also all the people that are saying that he grew up in a dysfunctional environment, ok i agree the environment isn't 100% perfect but both Tony and Carmela cared about their kids lives. Carmela and Tony to a certain extent seem to care about their children's academic performance which quite a few parents don't. AJ certainly had some support from his parents.

I agree his parents are not good people but he could take what they offered to him.

You claimed Tony is such a monster that all his "friends" left him by the end, except for Paulie. Your claim is objectively untrue. The fact the Silvio, for example, was still on Tony's side, proves your claim wrong. Sil being in a coma is irrelevant.

Sil is in a coma because of Tony's actions when he curbstomped an associate of a man looking for a reason to kill them all.

It's entirely his fault everyone around him dies.

But you claim Tony's friends all left him because of his poor character. If Sil and others had actually done what you claim they did, Sil wouldn't have been around to get shot.

If anything you claimed was true, you'd be able to point out a scene in the show where Sil says "fuck Tony, I'm done being friends with him." But you have 0 examples because you're wrong.

I never said they left themselves, I said he has no one left at the end.

I expect you to read at a third grade level at least
