Goku ain't a shitty parent, JFC watch the fucking show and stop meming. Such comments are so cringe to anyone that actually watched DBZ.

Everything he does is for his family and Earth. The one time he doesn't do so is letting Vegeta live at the end of the Saiyan arc. And that turns out to be a very good decision throughout the rest of the series.

"hurrr durr he gave Cell a senzu bean for no reason / so Cell could beat up Gohan"

Uuhh no, Goku couldn't beat Cell and Goku says as much. Goku only fights Cell to begin with essentially for the fun of it but his plan all along was for Gohan to beat Cell. Gohan can turbo fuck Cell once he taps into his true potential and Goku gave Cell the senzu bean so it wouldn't detract from Gohan's accomplishment, and that a 100% Cell doesn't matter. Goku's misstep here was not discussing the strategy with Gohan first and Piccolo reams him out for it saying that Gohan is a soft hearted boy and doesn't have the same thirst for a fight that Goku does. THAT is why Cell is able to beat on Gohan until Android 16 gives his speech, Gohan finally understands what he he must do, and Cell promptly gets turbo fucked like how Goku knew would happen.

EVEN at the height of Gohan's strength in that battle, Goku is STILL giving advice to Gohan telling him to finish Cell quickly because despite the new power difference, Cell is a greasy mother fucker and can still win. Gohan gets ahead of himself, Cell tries to go boom-boom and Goku - again for his family and the Earth - sacrifices himself to save everyone. Cell comes back stronger than ever, Gohan is about to give up, and Goku cheers his son on from the afterlife and gives him the courage/mental strength to finish off super powered Cell.

The whole point of the Cell arc is about Goku leaving the protection of the Earth to a new generation since Goku knows he won't always be around to defend it.

Goku is not a shitty parent, so SHUT. THE FUCK. UP. YOU. CRINGEY MEMIMG RETARDS.
