For the Liz defenders here, please explain to me the difference between the mental state exemplified by Townsend and the mental state exemplified by Liz. As far as I can tell, the only difference is that Townsend has been trapped in that mental state many years longer than Liz has.
In Buddhist thought, one of the most destructive of the "negative emotions" is the desire for vengeance. "Living for revenge" isn't really living. It turns you ugly. Think Liz as the "Before" photo, and Townsend as HER "After" photo, if she continues along the same path she's currently pursuing. I, for one, hope that she comes to her senses. It used to be a pleasant experience to watch her scenes in this series...before she turned ugly, that is. Now it isn't.
