Why is no one discussing that? The whole point of him is that he’s a bad person and Belle brings out the good part of him. In the end, that good part won. People do bad things, but that’s what the whole definition of redemption is. It just annoys me that people always focus on these things. Like Gothel for instance. All I see is that she manipulated Hook. Well she also left a baby to die. Same with regina. All anyone mentions is her relationship with Graham, which never happened in the EF and was totally two-sided in SB. What about all the people she’s killed? And also she’s totally disgusted with her past actions. I'm of a similar mind, I don't think that the bad things people do on the show should be compared to real life situations since it's fictional and there isn't really a real-life equivalent for say, casting a curse. I also think the fandom has a tendency to exaggerate certain characters' misdoings because they don't like them. But the opposite is also true. I don't agree with your opinion on Regina and Graham. Although nothing was shown, it was implied that she was sleeping with him in the EF and since she had his heart in Storybrooke, she was still controlling him so their relationship wasn't two-sided. I do agree that she is disgusted for her past actions and feels remorse, though.
