Yeah theres a whole plot that was the main focus last season where they outline the difference between acknowledging that people can be terrible versus just settling with it and how relating to BoJack can make you just be okay with being a **** person. And they pretty much say that the second one is definitely wrong. That you shouldnt be comfortable saying thats just who I am and never trying to be better, just giving up and accepting how **** of a person you are. Sure BoJack can be right sometimes, sure BoJack had an unimaginably horrible childhood (my god) but at the end of the day the last episode just shown shows us that other characters will never know the deeper motivations behind what BoJack or other characters have done- just the actions theyve done and laid out they seem really really bad. Its making a point that even though your life could be horrible, you could have every reason to lash out, its still your actions and your responsibility.

Rick and Morty could be compared to BoJack because they are both great shows with a bastard for a main character. But while Rick is shown to be problematic and troubled and totally screwed up just like BoJack hes still kinda cool and theres no indication hell ever change. BoJack meanwhile is the same but he listens to people, thinks about his actions, regrets things and has nice solid character development.
