One episode in and she's managed to mention intersectional feminism, the black panther party and male privilege all in like a single 30 second appearance. It's gonna be a long ride

unfortunately a number of netflix original series are trying to write these community nod characters, and it's painfully obvious that the writers themselves are either not familiar with the subjects or very bad at their jobs, because yeah, you do see a lot of these stereotype characters.

it is very much an eyeroll experience.

this is what all young adult marketed content is like these days. my wife is a HS teacher and reads YA lit / watches YA type shows fairly often, and like 75% of the content is about identity politics stuff like this (the other 25% is dystopian sci fi lol).

not that it's a inherently a bad thing, just really weird that stuff like this has evolved from social issues into almost an entire genre of entertainment media

It doesn't get better. Every scene she is in is such a slog. The show is great, but I couldn't stand any storyline she was in

What? Her character totally tones down after the first couple episodes

I tried proving this point yesterday with a gamespot editor to no avail. Basically there was an article about that new Overlord movie with a quote from the filmmaker basically saying how it was good to make a film without having to speak to the social climate. I then quoted from the gamespot review of the same film where the reviewer basically faults the movie for having only one female character in a movie set during WWII. Anyway, that reviewer is who they are making movies and entertainment for now. It cant be great if if doesn't have enough X, Y or Z and even then they move the goal posts and say there isn't enough.

Or maybe I just find a one dimensional character designed entirely to tick social hot topic boxes irritating. Like if there was a character that came on and talked entirely in memes, for example. Which is basically how this character is portrayed.

That's the problem with this topic, if you're not unequivocally accepting of any instance of it you're against it, am I right?
