the propaganda in tv shows does numbers on y’all and i’m not immune to this either but it’s been bugging me a lot lately because y’all will see a character who is a radical who is radically anti-war or radically pro-racial justice or a communist or whatever and you’ll see a character who is one of those things but also inexplicably like, murders a child or whatever and instead of thinking “hey, maybe there’s a reason this show is portraying someone who wants to feed the homeless as an insane monster” you’ll start posting like “i mean technically they were right but i just can’t defend them after they exploded an apartment full of pregnant women” and like. yeah. that’s what they want you to think. that’s why they have those characters do random off the wall shit. think beyond the text please
