Coco was the only good character, though.
Everyone else, especially the white folks, were awful --- He would make his mark, if not on this tree, then on that wall; if not with teeth and claws, then with penknife and razor. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's good. I like how it's subtle in how it makes fun of the regressives. Then there's moments like with Reggie that's like damn.

Menardi posted...TendoDRM posted...Menardi posted...I absolutely love how just the title of the show triggers white people. The title being shit has nothing to do with the quality of the show. Criticizing how shitty the title is is not an indictment of the show, either. If someone made a show called "Hitler Did Nothing Wrong" but made a very insightful and in-depth look at the decision making of Adolf Hitler, I'd still say, "Wow, what a shitty title. You'd have to be trolling, an idiot, a racist, or some combination of those three to name your show that." --- // BEAUTY IS NOT LOVE - LOVE IS NOT MUSIC - MUSIC IS THE BEST - WISDOM IS THE DOMAIN OF THE WIZ--WHICH IS EXTINCT // http://www.last.fm/user/Pogo92 ...

I'm disappointed that the show isn't based on activism and all that other equality stuff. It's okay I guess but I expected it to be a protest show.

It was annoying that literally every interaction tion with the police involved them getting a gun pointed at them even though wrongful shootings by police are extremely rare even when only looking at altercations with black people.
Reggie should have been shot. It would've actually given them some stakes to fight for, and since they didn't the writers had to throw in the thing about the donors being racists in the 11th hour which had nothing to do with the plot at all. --- The person who writes for fools is always sure of a large audience.

I kind of agree. The super low stakes made it hard to take any of their activism seriously. I'm not sure that wasn't the point, though. I kinda thought we were meant to think that. "Rich black kids face micro aggressions in their fancy rich people school and think that makes them "woke" - are super shook the. first time they face something close to real adversity" is as accurate a title as dear white people, just less punchy --- He would make his mark, if not on this tree, then on that wall; if not with teeth and claws, then with penknife and razor. ...

HydraSlayer82 05/07/17 12:04:36 PM #40: |
Yeah, I think the point was to show how faux it all is. A bunch of rich kids getting triggered over pettiness. Coco was the only one that legitimately saw systematic fuck ups and was still way more level headed than everyone else.

I kind of agree. If that was the case, why bring the issue full-circle by having the dean save his son from (almost) getting a gun pulled on him all slow-mo, and hold on his face for awhile as if he may change his mind about guns on campus I think the writers are on the side of the AP kids more than you guys believe. --- The person who writes for fools is always sure of a large audience.

It was annoying that literally every interaction tion with the police involved them getting a gun pointed at them even though wrongful shootings by police are extremely rare even when only looking at altercations with black people. No one pointed the gun in the last confrontation. And no one was shot, so I don't know why you're talking about the show representing wrongful shootings when there were none. Also, it's a bit silly of you to insinuate that the show overrepresents minority shootings while in the same breath claim that it would be better if Reggie was shot. --- http://i.imgur.com/QoIYepz.gif Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you. ...
