Goddam, this show is a liberal millennial wet dream.

Every white guy is a rapist, an incestuous perv, a guy cheating on his wife, or a thug.  Every single one.  Also, they are not checking their privilege AT ALL.

Every white woman is in a non-traditional relationship with anything but a white guy, including other women.  Every black woman is only with black guys.

The monstrous villain is a white British guy who is a rapist, murderer, child murderer, and thief, with a tendency to forcefully colonize other peoples minds.

I am only half way through, but abortion is practically a protagonist.  I personally agree with the decision to abort the rape baby, but still... there it is.

And there are other things I thought of while watching that I can't even remember right now.

I am enjoying the show, but jesus.

Also I wonder if Killgrave's mind control powers could be defeated by just walking up to him wearing earbuds with loud music playing so you can't hear his commands.

Ok, there's a white guy banging the blonde woman... but he's clearly submissive.

Oh yeah now that white guy is a psycho killer, so whew, we are 100% on white guys being evil.  That was a close one.

I don't like the "oh it's a virus that acts instantaneously" angle.  That isn't how viruses work.  I'd be happier with a fucking "direct mind control because of telepathic waves" explanation.

Gosh, maybe that's how Loki's Scepter takes people over... a virus.  Ugh.

A type of virus that allows for mind control and reacts instantly upon command?  Sounds like midi-chlorians.

Good show, but like I said, a SJW wet dream.  I'm surprised there weren't trigger warnings before each episode.

As soon as the nurse from DareDevil showed up I knew DD would not be in it.... he is a white male, and they wouldn't be allowed to portray him as evil scum.

The show was pretty good, but the ending was a letdown, and it kinda got long in eps 8-11 or so.
