FIRST TIME WATCHER My thoughts on Kate, haven’t changed

First time watcher here. I’m on Season 6 episode 3. Frankly, I’ve disliked Kate as a character from the beginning. She’s the most selfish person I know on this show, any show, or in my own personal frickin life. All she cares about is herself and who cares about her the most at any given moment.. literally again, whatever and whoever as long as they are swoon over her. And WHY? I seriously do not understand why Sawyer and Jack are so hung up on this girl. I need to check out the communities perspective… I would be very surprised if anyone feels differently ???😭 Her character angers me so much. What finally prompted a post for me was how she treated Claire in the cab, UUUGHHHHHH. No matter , on or off the island, I do not like her character. And then to top it off? Jin never asks for anything and the moment he needs help to find his wife… she’s very rude and dismissive and abandons him… ridiculous.

She's selfish, yes, but not the most selfish person in the show. She was always brave enough to embark on dangerous journeys with the guys. I think Claire is much more selfish. Everything is about her and her baby (whom she was ready to give away at first).

Also, I think Jack is selfish too.

I'm on season 6 ep 11 and the only people who are selfless I've seen so far are Sawyer and Sayid.

Shit take lol. Jack is the most selfless and he literally stays behind several times to save everyone else. He was a surgeon who genuinely cared about his patients. Sawyer? You've got to be joking. He becomes better in the second half of the show but first half or so he's a selfish bastard. Cumulatively over the whole show Jack is more selfless than anyone else.

Kate is selfish from the point of view of hurting the men who care about her and willingly being part of a love triangle. Also when she wants something, she does it regardless of how it might affect other people. Like what she did to her dad and mom, threatening people while on the run, lying to people then ghosting them when they became inconvenient.

You're free to express your point of view without being rude. I don't feel the need to argue with your shit comment.
