Why was Chris Hargenson so mad at Carrie White?

IIRC, in the book she tries to get the gym teacher fired and it backfires. Either way, she was a dumb, spoiled bitch who would blame anyone but herself.
Kieran is a retcon. Audrey was Piper's original partner. -

Thanks Johan, I thought she got killed. It's a good point though why PJ Soles didn't get angrier at the gym teacher but took it out on poor Carrie. I liked that movie a fair bit because Sissy Spackeck engendered so much empathy. Great actor and she was also excellent in Terence Malick's
Badlands
, an account of the spree killer Charles Starkweather. -

I think because Carrie was easy to pick on and others were doing so too. Also the gym teacher gave them extra classes as punishment because they had been bullying Carrie (shower scene). It was easier to get revenge on Carrie than on the teacher, at least that's what Chris thought. And also yeah a dumb chick she was.

I think, especially after Carrie got the gym teacher's support and sympathy, Carrie started to seem like a martyr. That meant Chris H would have had to start seeing herself as DEFINITELY being the bad girl, and the human mind just doesn't work that way. She couldn't see herself as being wrong, so she had to believe that Carrie was just a bee-yotch, or a holier than thou (insert bad word that starts with c). So, she had to just get meaner and meaner and meaner to Carrie.
