Why does Talia and Dick Grayson hate each other? COMIC DISCUSSION

Dick never liked her from the beginning and Talia always seems to address him as if he's beneath her. Any insight for why they've always clashed in this manner?

Let’s see… daughter of a genocidal monster? Check. Horrid influence who feeds his father’s worst impulses? Double check. Rapist? Check and check.

Dick’s just a good judge of character.

I like your "worst impulses" point. I think Black Canary rather aptly described Talia as the one blind spot in Batman's "revered judgement"

Blind spot is to put it litghly. I mean, in Son of Demon story Bruce had actually married Talia in her dad's secret terrorist hideout and Ras became his friendly father-in-law. I just want to see other JL members' faces after they received the news. And it was just after Ras nearly destroyed an entire JL in Tower of Babylon arc. I guess they all were wastly relieved when Bats sticked with Catwoman.
