Normally, my opinion on Blaine is indifference. He's done some pretty douchey things but I was willing to let them slide. But this scene made me cross the line into outright hatred of him. There's so many things wrong with it I can't even.
First of all they just kind of dropped that bomb out of nowhere. If it was meant to add depth the whole setup of the scene caused it to get lost amid everything. And shouldn't Blaine have showed more emotion or the like about something so terrible? Instead of just sounding like he was reading from a script?
Second, nothing Blaine's said or done ever suggested he got beat up due to his homosexuality. If anything, the way he's been written up to this point suggests that he had it easy compared to Kurt and that his insensitivity to Kurt's situation was out of ignorance and therefore understandable.
Which leads me to the last point. Suddenly things which I used to think made the character more likeable or interesting in a good way now just scream "utterly contemptible douchebag". Look at "Courage", which is his defining character trait. He knows how bad homophobic bullying can be, telling Kurt to rub it in the bullies' faces is the last thing he should be telling him to do, and horrible advice from his perspective. And if he knows from personal experience how awfully people get treated for being gay, and is so insistent to Kurt about being "discreet", then, why is he so eager to out Karofsky and serenade Jeremiah publicly? He's gone from smug insensitive bastard to smug insensitive bastard who's now also a raging hypocrite.
Sorry Glee, if you were hoping to make me like Blaine with that, then you've done the complete opposite.
