It can't be a coincidence that the first episode after the election Was about gun confiscation this so called majority "elites" breaking down the powerless "hillbillies"

Perfectly encapsulates the mind state of a lot of people in Hollywood that that is how they view themselves over the rest of America.

But with the results flipping on them before the episode, it's kind of funny to watch it from the perspective of who actually has the power --- which is the people who have the guns & are the same people who spoke their minds in unison less than a week ago .

TL;DR: Smug gun confiscation propaganda back fired

I dunno man. TWD kinda suck arse since season 3 or so, but I never noticed anything overtly political in it. It is frustrating how they depict the apocalypse as thousands of people acting like morons and harming their own self interests.

This agenda has been going on for over a decade & they knew when this episode would air
immediately after the election. Left coast editors are too smart for their own good to not assume it was going to be aired immediately following an HRC election

Why did u click then?

My title plainly is about the episode tonight, so clearly expected only those that are watching to look, or come back to it tomorrow after watching later.

Yeah that was fricking terrible. I guess I really only like season one and two.

Or it could be just that a stronger party wanted the weaker parties weapons.

You think they didn't know this episode would air on this date in the summer?

Then why would they make the gun-grabbers the bad guys? Makes no sense. It's a TV show

If anything this episode showed everyone how powerless we become when our guns are taken from us.

People are inherently animals and logic goes out the window when group think and fear run rampant among them. Given the right mix of circumstance and opportunity a person is capable of absolutely anything whether it be tremendous good or down right evil.

That's my point. It was about gun confiscation trying to portray it as easy as everyone taking it like a little bitch. Trying to project strength they don't have unless you give it too them.

They scared

There's a lot more Neegan fans than you think out there.

The big bad all-encompassing Neegan clones govt vs the tight knit family faction.

They predicted wrong: it's the family who has the strength, Not the Neegan sheep IRL

No just the movies. And every other population disarmed shows me how weak ppl feel when their rulers have all the guns and the ppl have only their rising fists.

Was perfect for the episode after the election to push the narrative to the right way
