That's the double edged sword of the whole thing. Just because we can accept the reasons behind someone's actions, doesn't mean we can excuse the actions.I'm gonna play the Devil's Advocate for a sec brother.
You said an asshole and a serial killer both didn't choose their brains. You are 100% correct with that, but their brains are shaped by their environments and influences, insert Quinn. Her brain was shaped into a "Survival over everything" mentality. Which is my main bitching point about most Quinn haters. A lot of people are quick to dismiss her as a rotten to the core, single dimensional character that's just bad for the sake of it and that's certainly not the case.
There's a friend of my family that has diagnosed mental problems and it makes them a bit of a cunt from time-to-time, and I tried to explain to my twelve year old daughter that it wasn't this person's fault they are a cunt, to which she replied, "but they're still a cunt." I might be slightly paraphrasing my kid's words here...
But with Quinn, and with anyone who doesn't have a physical impediment making it impossible for them to change, there can always be a path to redemption. It just comes down to whether you can be fucked putting in the effort to help them get there.
Will Quinn find her path?
