Wow. Holy politics, Batman. This show has great potential but loves to force their narrative down everyones throat. I don’t mind the politics, but it’s not even done cleverly and simply says “agree with me bigot”. Next, the show doesn’t even explain why their politics are correct while demanding you follow what is said, even though it’s been debunked. I’ll give the show credit with the gore, storytelling, attachable characters(especially Homelander). Other than that, it’ll lose its audience if it continues to dilute the show with this nonsense. The show insists that black people are held down and can’t do anything in this nightmare called America. That woman are underpaid and don’t belong in entrepreneurship. That all Trump supporters are Nazis. I can go on and on, because that’s how much the show can’t shut up with the politics. Unlike the show, I’ll explain why this logic is flawed. In the episode with Blue Hawk who brutalizes the black community, it gets into “police brutality”. The problem with that is it simply isn’t true, that the police are just hunting down black people. They also made Blue Hawk a Mexican fella and this says that anyone who disagrees is the enemy. The show does mention black-on-black crime but immediately turns back to police brutality. I’d advise anyone to look up these numbers and do their own research. The show always tells us that woman and minorities can’t work their way up in business, when again this simply isn’t true. It feels like a slap in the face to minorities who actually made it. Did they make it by sheer luck, and not hard work? But no matter, the show will digress and won’t give you an answer. I feel Seth Rogen may have too much influence and why the show is rolling downhill. Which I’m not sure how he’s allowed in a studio after his atrocious Christmas show on Hulu. To go on that note, the show claims cancel culture isn’t real, at the same time Rogen condemned his old movies such as Superbad, claiming they weren’t even funny. The show offers zero solutions to any problems they claim are happening, along with no evidence to back up these claims. Making it part of the main plot of the show. I’m highly disappointed as the first season had serious momentum. If this continues, I don’t think many people will enjoy it as we can see from the ratings going down on Amazon.
