the thing with early seasons Sam is YES he will turn into a shell of what he once was after enduring more than any human has and being blamed for more than any human should so forth so forth and YES with Cas he WILL end up treating his life as a bargaining chip after known lack of happiness until his last appearance is martyrdom but it’s DIFFERENT to compare that to early seasons Dean because they destroy his CHARACTER. and yes there are good stories to be told and so the cycle of abuse continues, but it’s not done well, he because a caricature of himself, he becomes completely unrecognisable in so many ways, flaws shifted that aren’t even inherent until the shroud over everything good that once existed in him. like all over Supernatural hinges on character devolvement. Sam isn’t written well for half of the show. But Dean’s character is utterly assassinated.
