it feels like its mike myers surrounded by a 20 something "diverse" writing room.
Race is brought up repeatedly. Q-anon, pizzagate, alex jones are mocked. not a single left wing conspiracy is. "pizzagate is not real, but the goverment gave placebos to 600 infected black men in Tuskagee medical experiments " almost word for word.
constant Pop culture/celebrity worship nonsense.
internet disinformation is the villain and "didn't win an election, manufacture votes."
It was made before Musk was persona non grata though.
Greta thrumberg and obama are among the "world leaders", along with other various celebrities and world leaders. no trump though. very euro/us centric.. obama, merkle, queen of england. not even Trudeau, oddly. but no actual asian, african, south american world leaders.. more celebrities shown then world leaders.. says a lot about the creators.
paltro and her Goop is featured. but like as something they all want. which is weird, considering the misinfo/conspiracy theory plot points. why are you promoting that scam?
"racism, xenophobia, fascist capitalism" yep. epi 6 went from 7/10 to 3/10. "older white man, older white man" "the world is made up of a lot more us's than thems"
episodes 1-5 is just slightly woke. its mostly just largely unfunny from what feels like a very young and "diverse" writing room, who just live in a bubble created by media being their only source of worldly knowledge. episode 6 ramps the wokeness up to 11 though. goes full "don't look up".
and pretty sure this is going to end with the internet being censored as a good thing.
"you're a slave to every conspiracy theory that said there was an other that kept you down, an other that took your job, your tax dollars, your culture, your country" haha. holy shit, the total lack of self awareness. not 5 minutes after saying white men are keeping women, and minorities down.
"trust the experts". haha.
