Fans don't believe that Terry Silver is a psychopath
Redditor u/Relsen (https://www.reddit.com/r/cobrakai/comments/siltpi/silver_is_not_a_psychopath/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) started the conversation by explaining, "I see a lot of people saying that Terry is a psycho, but in reality he is not, and that makes him even worse. Psychopathy is not some synonym of 'evil', actually, there are a lot of psychopaths who are not evil and live normally. Psychopathy is a disorder with many traits, one of them, a very important one, is the inability to feel empathy and Terry does not have this one." They continued by adding that Silver had shown empathy and the ability to understand emotions during the scene where he explained that everybody has a weakness.
u/Keekee-88 (https://www.reddit.com/r/cobrakai/comments/siltpi/comment/hv9ilea/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) replied that they like Silver's character, and felt that Kreese actually made him a monster. They added that they felt the show was trying really hard to make people sympathize with Kreese by making Silver extremely unlikable. Similarly, u/RandenVanguard (https://www.reddit.com/r/cobrakai/comments/siltpi/comment/hva7a1u/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) believes that the reason for making Silver look so bad and to invoke sympathy for Kreese is to highlight both his positive and negative traits, which they also believed is a recurring trend in "Cobra Kai."
u/Citron-Economy (https://www.reddit.com/r/cobrakai/comments/siltpi/comment/hvc2m88/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) admitted that they enjoyed the character of Silver, and felt that Kreese's manipulation of him was far more reprehensible than anything Silver has done, with u/CobraKaiSince1984 (https://www.reddit.com/r/cobrakai/comments/siltpi/comment/hvds2ry/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) adding that Kreese "was the main reason why Silver has turned evil again." Judging by these fan comments it seems that "Cobra Kai" has done its job, and people can even look at Silver with empathy.
