First coined by Twitter user @buggy_con, the John Walker Effect is when in any form of media the writers unintentionally make the antagonist characters
-Far more entertaining
-Far more believable as characters
-More sympathetic
-More heroic than the stale and downright evil protagonists/heroes
Typically you will see the writers project all the things they view as evil onto these characters in order to make a straw man to pit against their oh so perfect protagonists. However, this unintentionally causes these characters to be loved by the audience, for they are the only ones who
-Call out the protagonists' bullshit for what it is
-Have actual ideas and motivations that aren't selfish
These characters often have to be amped up to cartoonish levels of evil in order to try and make the audience root against them.

Get the The Benjamin Walker Effect mug.The place that nobody knows and nobody wants to know. It is so much drama that even the teachers get into it. Where all the athletes think they are the shit until they graduate, and can barely make it into a D3 school, posting "throwbacks" of their "glory days" on Instagram. Where walkertown girls become mommies faster than they get their high school deploma, only to realize they were impregnated but their third cousin. Sheetz is where it's at, whether you are getting some gas or smoking it. The only place where you actually get into trouble for having school spirit, but who can blame them, the only team who is actually good it their XC team and NOBODY cares about that! All in all its a great place to be stuck with the same people for four years, or for most- longer.
