I never finished the first show but I thought it was cool. At least a 7 for me. This Forbes review is specifically citing the reviews that complained about "modern day talking points" so I don't doubt they're at least partially correct. The show is probably mediocre to begin with but there's also righties getting worked up over it. I guess I'll have to watch it and see if it's any good.
you just threw out a strawman, got told to stay on topic, then accused the other person of strawmanning your argument because they stayed on topic rather than responding to your strawman
i guess we can add "reading comprehension" to your list of special talents
oh no somebody's using words they don't understand
give me the definition of a strawman argument, then explain how that was one
ok i think i get it, so for example making the argument be about "shows shouldn't prioritise pushing a message over quality" when that's completely irrelevant to the topic at hand would be an example of a strawman argument, yes?
also i'm still waiting on an answer for what message the show is pushing
i think that might be a strawman
having black people in a tv show isn't "prioritizing pushing a message", you absolute loon
what message is the show pushing
Name some media that pushes zero messaging of any type. Bet you can’t.
Opulence and excess lead to brutality.

Honestly it just sounds like you are the kind of idiot who would play bioshock and come out with the that it was just a fun game about smacking people who are in diving suits with a wrench and having super powers. Like its clear you are a troll since you are choosing to pick games that have no in game story then shouting "LALALLALALALALALAL" when people tell you that the fucking instruction manual the game comes with has these themes. Funny part is your argument would make sense if you were talking about other kinds of external material like the whole star extended universe or someone talking about the halo books when talking about the complexity of the universe but this is a thing that came with the game. I'm sorry you either didn't have a childhood where you didn't read the fucking manual that came with the game but I assume you were illiterate when it came out.
at this point just because it's fun watching you flail about
damn just hit me with the i'm rubber you're glue
but if I haven't made any points, then why have you replied arguing against them?
mysterious
i can keep going
Again I haven't seen the show yet but usually when people say that it just means there was a black/queer character and it made them angy
Without spoilers, there’s melanin, gayness, and even character flaws. You were spot on.
Low quality? No, not in the least. It was adequate setup for a 3-4 season show. The emotional arcs would have been fantastic if they had been given any amount of time to breathe or if there had been more visible development between certain characters, but that’s not what the complaints are about, are they? What, my good chud, are they complaining about in their reviews? Do feel free to pull your mask off, you’re among friends.
What an absolutely unhinged comment. And to reply to your reviews, there’s nothing of substance said in half of them. I read them, evidently you haven’t. Feel free to keep the mask on, I guess?
Attempting to sound older than 16 seems like a small ask. As does… having a review in your review. Speaking of which, you mind linking your review?
So you don’t have one?
The first episode is without any of the characteristics you derided in your other comments. Why did you come to a comment section to argue in favor of negative reviews about a show you haven’t actually watched? That’s a bizarre hobby.
