Lincoln is a great character

I've just started rewatching the show and Lincoln is honestly, if not my favorite character, definitely an amazing one. I love how, in contrast with Michael, who always has everything extremely well planned and manages to keep calm even in the hardest situations, he is scared, vulnerable, desperate and loves deeply. He makes mistakes and regrets them, he tries to manage the situation he's in and sometimes fails, but if he makes dumb choices he does it out of the rawest, realest love there is.

I think that the amount of hate this character receives doesn't make much sense, and I was wondering if someone agrees with me. Let me know what you think :)
