The narrative in Dahmer was a necessary one. It wasnât centered around Dahmer being inherently racist, it shed light on the corruption of the police department in the city. It brought to your face the fact that two officers who failed to do their job, in a very grotesque way, went on to have bright and shiny lives in law enforcement. They killed that poor kid and by proxy all the other lives lost at that apartment by not responding to numerous cries from the community.
The Boys is riddled with that shit. I made it through tho itâs not terrible. Idc what anybody says, if you can hear the writers views on something through a character, regardless of what it is, it hurts the integrity of the show and breaks the fourth wall. Unless thatâs done on purpose like a rick n morty type deal then itâs always a negative.
The last season of The Boys made me get the comics. There are significant differences, so it's a fairly new experience that you won't mind starting from the beginning. It's around as different as Marvel 616 is from MCU.
I was fine with literally everything (including the blue hawk stuff cause it was handled much better than any other show would've done it) except for the "homelands as Trump" stuff. It cheapens the character to have hum be a lampooning of a real figure, and he's Way more of an Andrew Tate type lol
At least with the boys it was more subtext and stuff, and it was still a quality show. But yeah there was some preaching and eue rolling stuff, but I can forgive it because the show hits so hard.
My wife loves Greyâs Anatomy and she is about to stop watching because the new episodesâ plots revolve around whatever the woke script of the week is. This weekâs was abortion. Sheâs a liberal too and is sick of the mindless pandering.
One of the worst cases of that was Falcon and the Winter soldier. Sam went on a solid 5 minute rant telling the senator to âdo betterâ while offering no better solutions
right? Since they decide to make the bad guys "immigrants" they can't actually be bad. Even when they are murdering people and blowing shit up (or planning to release a virus but not really tho). The good guys have to stand up for them and say that really its immigration policy that turns them into Aladdin and it's not their fault.
Every cast in practically any new show now has an Asian, a black lady, gay dude and gay/lesbian couple. And a white guy to shit on is getting to be quite a hit as well.
My wife still watches Greyâs Anatomy. Complains all the time about the political posturing, but still watches it. The other day the plot was a lady from Idaho that had an ectopic pregnancy. Hospitals in Idaho wouldnât treat her because of abortion laws and she makes her way into Washington state to be treated, dying on the way.
I wouldnât call Dahmer woke, but it definitely stretched the truth to play up the racial angle of his crimes. Glenda Clevelandâs a composite character. She existed, but she wasnât actually his next door neighbor and didnât even live in the same apartment building. She never met Dahmer
I actually thought they did a decent job showing that his crimes did not have a racial component to them, despite the obvious intent to try to play up the racial angle for all it was worth.
Fight scene nice... and now everything bad in the world is my fault and i should hate myself and give away everything i own. Fantastic and from out of nowhere too. If i did control the world i wouldn't be giving it away because a bunch of actors that make a thousand times as much as i do tell me. The whole thing instantly becomes lame and unwatchable though so nice work. Just dont walk to subway at 3 in the morning in Chicago or anything or those famous chicago trumpers might strike again.
Imagine trying to make a real-life serial killer look relatable, progressive and woke, then having the balls to label critics of said half-assed Monologues 'Evil'.
This sort of thing has more recently become a game for my dad and I. Well watch a modern movie or show we think looks kinda cool and then weâll try and count how many woke ideas or tropes are thrown in.
They claimed the police were racist without providing any proof. If anything, the police didnât get involved because it looked like gay lovers having a quarrel. If they had intervened, they would have been accused of being homophobic.
Not related shows but games for example like Far cry 6. Ubisoft pretty much made it for the people that were complaining that far cry 5 enemies are not trump supporters, now you lead a zoomer communist group fighting a dictator(pretty much a good guy if you look deep into it) and have quest that you pretty much helping someone transiting like itâs on the nose.
Seems Iike writers of certain shows have a quota or checklist of what they or their bosses feel the need to slip in. I'd prefer blatant product placement.
Man, when Battlestar Galactica did that episode on abortion, their logic was basically: âHumans are an endangered species now, letâs do the Cylonâs work for them.â
It was the second season fhat was the worst, when they introduced literal Nazis with an implied MAGA allegory. The line was something like, "This is what half of us believe. They just dont like the word Nazi."
I didn't watch the show but I'm sure they tried to frame Dahmer as racist or something because he killed black people. He was more of an opportunist killing anything he could.
I donât remember anything other than the black cop being unprofessional and lecturing him when he should be trying to be âgood copâ to get as much intro from him
Haven't watched Dahmer yet, but the Boys dabbled in wokeness which has nearly turned me off at times, but just because I disagree with points of view shouldn't mean I'm against hearing it. It will make me think a bit more about my values
IMPORTANT: On
Yep. I stopped watching mid-season because of that too. Dahmer became a talking point about racism instead of about the mind of a serial killer.
How was he racist, the dude loved black guys đ

Itâs so distracting too. I donât recall this ever being an issue until fairly recently.

Happens way to often.

When the woke bullshit starts you need to turn it off, dislike the show and move on.

That scene was hard to watch.

Pretty much everything on Netflix these days is the same way.
Gabriel Iglesias' show is embarrassingly woke. Too bad, a funny man that got paid off to peddle a message.
Noooo.. what show?
What monologues?

Is this a show on Netflix?

Me when I watch Brooklyn 99 đ
Dahmer's true sin was that he was a cis white male
Iâve heard nothing but praise for the Dahmer mini-series. How woke was it?
As woke as The Boys?
They claimed the police were racist without providing any proof. If anything, the police didnât get involved because it looked like gay lovers having a quarrel. If they had intervened, they would have been accused of being homophobic.
Resident Alien Season 2 episode 3...almost dropped the show because of it

Try New Amsterdam... First 2 seasons were fine but 3 (I assume onwards but I gave up) just goes full-on woke
If I have to hear one more "soulful saint" lecture me in an overly drawn out netflix "limited series"....
Seems Iike writers of certain shows have a quota or checklist of what they or their bosses feel the need to slip in. I'd prefer blatant product placement.
That was The Last Jedi Star Wars movie
The Robert Englund bit at the end of âchoose or dieâ on Netflix is a really egregious example, for those who havenât seen.
Man, when Battlestar Galactica did that episode on abortion, their logic was basically: âHumans are an endangered species now, letâs do the Cylonâs work for them.â
I didnât notice any woke garbage in that series.
It was the second season fhat was the worst, when they introduced literal Nazis with an implied MAGA allegory. The line was something like, "This is what half of us believe. They just dont like the word Nazi."
There is a lot. They slightly concealed it, but yet quite easy to recognize a lot of pro-Democratic propaganda.
Because of the Overton window, you didnât notice it
I didn't watch the show but I'm sure they tried to frame Dahmer as racist or something because he killed black people. He was more of an opportunist killing anything he could.
I didn't find the Dahmer series woke at all.
There isn't any woke shit in the Dahmer series. It was actually really good. Hard to watch for obvious reasons. But really good.
I donât remember anything other than the black cop being unprofessional and lecturing him when he should be trying to be âgood copâ to get as much intro from him
