Murder House gave birth to one of the most problematic couples
"American Horror Story: Murder House" sees the Harmon family moving into a bonafide haunted house in Los Angeles, where they are confronted with some of their worst fears. Meanwhile, teenage Violet (Taissa Farmiga) is comforted by a high school romance when she meets fellow teen Tate (Evan Peters), who is seemingly just as damaged as she is. However, this connection takes a dark turn when Violet learns about all the horrible things Tate has done. The relationship certainly made an impression on fans, and for some, the connection this troubled pair of teens made remains one of the hallmarks of the entire series. However, many fans on Reddit point out how problematic this couple actually is.
"Tate is an awful person who murdered a bunch of people and raped Vivian but refuses to own up to any of it so it is really frustrating to watch him," posted u/ItchyAzalea (https://www.reddit.com/r/AmericanHorrorStory/comments/586t65/i_hate_tate_and_violet/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). Others jumped on the bandwagon, agreeing that Tate and Violet are actually a depiction of an extremely toxic relationship. Some even compared the couple to one of the worst couples in pop culture.
"Tate was a terrible person and idk why people fangirl on him," posted u/thommiah (https://www.reddit.com/r/AmericanHorrorStory/comments/586t65/comment/d8xyt85/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). "Kind of like how people think the joker/harely quinn from suicide squad is, like, 'relationship goals.'" Many seem to gloss over the abuse in the relationship (https://www.looper.com/182650/the-truth-about-harley-quinn-and-jokers-relationship/), instead romanticizing the dark aspects of their love affair.
