the thing that i find so frustrating about the take that maddie is somehow a bad sister to buck is that i feel like you could only come to this conclusion if you view maddie exclusively in relation to buck and not as a character in her own right. i mean, it's not like anyone ever really asks whether buck is a good brother to maddie. It's only maddie who's scrutinized in this way. you could argue that this is because buck is just a perfect sibling who has never misunderstood maddie, or held things against her that weren't her fault, or given her questionable advice, etc., but that's just demonstrably untrue. take his "you're the one who leaves" speech to her in S03E16. buck essentially blames maddie, not only for "leaving" him while she was trapped in an abusive relationship with a partner who isolated her from her loved ones, but also for "abandoning" their parents (???), something buck also did, and for good reason. and to be clear, i don't think this speech makes buck a bad brother. he was feeling cornered and he lashed out, and while he could've been a lot more understanding of maddie's situation, his feelings of abandonment are understandable. but it seems to me that this kind of empathetic reading of character motivations is only ever applied to buck.

if, for example, maddie were to make an equivalent speech, about how buck couldn't possibly understand what she's feeling because he's never been physically abused or isolated by a partner, the fandom would tear her apart for it. people would be far less willing to extend empathy and understanding to her because they only see her as Buck's Sister and not as her own character. you're saying she's occasionally flawed and imperfect? that her traumatic childhood where she was parentified and forced to pretend her dead brother never existed has an effect on how she treats buck as an adult? that's just normal character stuff. characters that aren't flawed and complicated are boring. but if you only see her as an extension of buck, then her every interaction with him is judged by how well she serves his narrative rather than who she is and what she's going through.

despite the occasional flaws and mistakes, overall, maddie is a fantastic sister. similarly, buck is also sometimes flawed and doesn't always understand where Maddie is coming from but, overall, he's a great brother.
