Haters are going to hate, and people who don't like him will continue to use his past to stop themselves from understanding his change and development. That's okay though. He's Emma's boyfriend and he is here to stay. If people don't like that, then I don't know, stop watching? There is no use complaining about his past and saying that's why you don't like him, considering that both Regina and Rumplestiltskin have done worse things than Hook ever did. I'm kind of bored of people using his excuse as an argument now, especially Regina/Rumple stans.
