The comic book is pretty fucked up in this regard. Butchers dog rapes some sup in it, too.

Fuck.. i was hoping it wouldn't get woke but i guess its confirmed now by that IGN review.. "racism and other social studies".. Fucking pieces of shit. can't enjoy anything these days without the fucking lectures / brain washing. wish they could keep that shit to twitter and cry about it there. hard skip for me.

It's just idiotic to look forward to any series these days i guess, good thing is there are still books from an era where the writing was about entertainment and good story and not about lecturing and virtue signaling. At least until we're getting book burnings, which i guess will happen within 10 years, its already started here with censoring/re-writes. I doubt that will be enough as things progresses.

The character that stands against political correctness is a racist. I'm trying not to read too much into it.

Sounds good. Throw political correctness so far down the trash that it'll jettison out into space on the other side of the planet.

I'm hearing the first episodes are decent, even from people who are absolutely allergic to the tiniest of wokeness. I'll wait until it's finished though...

please be good. i need a good series to watch and i loved the first season.

The IGN reviewer has been had if so... which ofcourse would be funny since he thinks it "addresses racism and other social studies", he even compares it in this regard to one of the most woke shows of recent years, Watchmen.

Good start. That Black Noir bit was probably the best scene on both seasons for me; till now at least. Hope he get's a lot more screen time since he plays a very crucial role; in the comics at least.

Nice start overall. Not as exciting as Season 1 but then again...that's expected. Don't care about the woke sh*t tbh but I don't like Stormfront that much. Tough to act like a psycho, tough guy when looking like that Very Happy

I guess he means that if you have a problem with things being woke, getting lectured, your are a white supremacist? Razz i dont know.

The only tiny bit 'woke' I saw, was the part with The Deep and his behaviour towards women (it just wasn't exactly subtle) but it was funny enough to go along with it.

But the scene with Blindspot indeed already eradicated any 'woke'ness Laughing

I noticed no wokeness in any of the three episodes. If anything the part that people suspect is "woke" (ie. people who haven't seen the episodes yet) is being satirized and smashed to bits just like everything else in the show.

Basically what I'm saying is that people whose anuses clench shut at anything that is even resembling "wokeness" can relax do the dump of the day and feel safe from uneasy feelings. Wink

This show takes your expectations, opens the window, shits on it and then throws it out.

Can't wait for the rest of the season.

Gonna wait for all the episodes and perhaps an overall review (not from IGN)... Hope it continues to be good, only heard positives so far.

Loved binge watching the first season..

Nah. I'll pass.
