while i love the currrent wave of people that start questioning ribbit and jax dinamic, i really dont like the current idea that ribbit was like an abusive piece of shit and jax was just a victim. First off none of the characters are written that way, and second, it feeels more like a copeout answer on why jax acts this way. Jax isnt a baby he has agency, his behaviour is a mix of multiple factors the main one being himself in the end (and ribbit and kaufmos death). And i am not saying that ribbit was a perfect guy at all, but trying to push all the blame on a already dead characters instead of viewing the complexity of jax character is kinda boring. Also the series makes constant parraleles which implies that somehwat pomni and ribbit were similar. I think realistically ribbit was a good guy with issues who unintentionally accentuated jax own issues, and those issues accentuated over time, and slowly he started actiing out in and being unpleasant, and then he abstracted. I personnaly have my own headcannons about their relationship and perhaps the complex dynamic they had but before we have confirmation i dont think labeling either one has an evil abuser works especcially how with how the story is written
