Every day I lose brain cells due to Cobra Kai fans who honest to God believe the bs "Daniel was Johnny's b*lly" narrative. They actually ask "did you even watch the films?" Speechless. If THEY had watched the films, they would realize what they are saying is utter nonsense.

Beyond nonsense, it's messed up & dangerous to vilify a victim & glorify a bully. Messed up & dangerous to believe Daniel was wrong to step in when /Johnny/ interrupted /Daniel + Ali/ to harass Ali. That Daniel was wrong to try to get an aggressive guy to back off an upset girl.

That Daniel was wrong to stand up to his bullies after successive incidents wherein the Cobras (unprovoked!) targeted, intimidated, and attacked Daniel. They almost killed him by side-sweeping him off a road.

And the one time Daniel actually tries to get even (Halloween), Johnny nearly beats him to death b/c Daniel (...be ready to clutch your pearls...) gets Johnny wet. Vile, vicious, evil boy. How dare he. Let's jump him, 5 black belts or w/e against 1 small kid who weighs like 100lb
