>>212270127the cancer forces him to think about his impacts on the world and how he'll be remembered, he realises how much of a humiliated cuck he is in his life and everybody around him learning of his cancer offers him help in a way that proves how pathetic and toothless they see him. so he starts doing things for himself and taking risks and not giving a fuck anymore, living for the danger game.
but it all ends up destroying everything around him, because those are bad things, walter *white* should have just been accepting his emasculated place and taking all the handouts from people he never liked and was compared to, didnt live up to, reminded him of wasted potential. doing all the things he did to have a last affirmation of life before he died was "pride" and "ego", he should have just took a handout and died a miserable unrespected cuck.
