Mildred, you want to know why I find Fritz more congenial than FW even though they can both be terrible? This kind of thing is why! (Well, also, because Fritz can be charming and FW just can't, at least not in a way I recognize.)
Re: The Braunschweig Perspective : First Impressions
Yeah, like Catherine the Great said in her memoirs, he had qualities to respect as a king but none that made him lovable as a human being...
For all that Fritz's terribleness resulted in a great deal more suffering on a large scale (a million is a statistic), he also had positives for me to latch onto. Which is why I'm all "My (problematic) FAVE!" to Fritz and "DIE DIE DIE" to FW, unfair as that may be.
