Big Mom as she is now cannot be excused for all the destruction & hurt she's caused, but my heart will always bleed for Linlin the little girl.
She was failed by everyone in her life & then groomed until adulthood by an asshole who wanted to use her naivete & strength for his own benefit. We see in Wano that if she had only met different people she could've turned out a lot nicer of a person. Instead we are only left with the violent and erratic woman who can't control any of her urges being one of the most powerful people in the series. Truly terrifying.
She's so clearly a metaphor for children with disabilities + aggression issues that never got the help they deserved and it breaks my fucking heart. I could've been a good mother to you Linlin 💔.
