Some thoughts about EHYZ.
>Zeke was a good child who obeyed to his parents, he didn't dare to show his rebellion clearly as Eren used to pick fights with other kids several times & declared his desire to join SC although Carla forbid him. He also didn't want to risk his life for freedom like Eren.
>Zeke is still a good child completely following his father figure Ksaver to euthanize his race, similar to Historia when she was trying to be a good child of her father.
He also has messiah complex as Krista always wanted to do good deeds.
(they're both γγε - good child)

β Krista & Zeke : good childs γγε
β Historia & Eren : bad guys ζͺγε&ζͺθ
But ironically, the bad guys act more like human beings (selfish & rebellious) than the good childs who thinks they can save the world by following instructions from the adults.

Ymir's miserable life is already an obvious parallel to Historia's without Eren on her side, consider further into their personalities, I like to think the true-self of Ymir isn't a gentle good girl but she is a selfish rebellious girl like Historia and Eren.
>By releasing pigs, Ymir showed her rebellion (slave always obeys master) - an act out of control bc she yearns for freedom.
>By letting herself die, Ymir showed her own way to be free since she thought no one loved her - selfish suicide attempt as both Eren & Hisu did.

β She embraces both Historia & Eren's characteristics (freewill, rebellious, suicidal, selfish) which also human traits.
And as Isayama said the story is revolving around "killing the father" & "surpassing the father", it's true EH don't inherit their father's personalities

but they inherit it from most important ancestor, it's kinda like a way to say they keep the basic nature of a human being.
We also have:
>Ymir & Historia: Gods / good girls
(described by ancient Eldians & Paradisians)
>Ymir & Historia: just a normal person
(described by Eren)

So it's better to see Ymir isn't a pure good girl, having a dark side means she's not a braindead slave, having her own freewill & selfishness as herself being constrained is what made Ymir true human like Historia.
And it wasn't Founder Ymir but Fake Ymir was the real good girl Krista, who's actually selfless.
β Krista = Fake Ymir = Zeke
β Historia = Founder Ymir = Eren
Thus, antagonizing Founder Ymir to me is no different from praising Zeke's ideology and antagonizing Historia & Eren.
