I tried to watch the first season, and beyond being painfully slow, I couldn’t get passed the obvious diversity casting. All it does is remind me of the blatantly racist ideological assumptions at work in the writers, producers, casting directors, and everyone else who worked on this show. So many conservative voices are praising it, even claiming it a masterpiece. That’s absurd. It is propaganda overlayed with expensive production and moderately decent, if not uneven, acting performances. I had to turn it off as it felt manufactured and inhuman. If art does not reflect reality, it cannot be art. It becomes a sterile, state-sanctioned art with no heart, beauty or truth. It is a lie masquerading as truth, and it is galling to my spirit and reminds me of how much we lost. I am also distraught to see how many have been duped by it as that reveals how indoctrinated we’ve become.
