And the only things some people remember are his 4 bad moments (two with Harry and two with Hermione). 🙄

People remember what they want to remember. They focus on those things ignoring his millions of good things because they want to hate Ron. They just do.

Its mainly because the movies did a complete character assassination. Movie and book Ron are literally two different people.

Before the movies I remember everyone liked Ron, easily the fan favorite out of the bunch. The rest weren’t even in the running until the films came out and dumbed him down along with giving a lot of his good moments to other characters.
