When you get to Season 3, just know its a current rebuttal to every progressive, community policing policy currently under consideration or enacted.
Hamsterdam concept is something liberal cities thought would work, still thinks works and is nothing but outright failure.
Thats one reason why its a great show.

Those plots weren’t made to be a commentary on their validity as concepts, it was to show that no matter what drastic measures you’re willing to do to try to address short term issues in the community, the broader systematic issues will be the down fall of it all. The system is built to not be fixed. It’s built to protect those in power and those who help protect those in power.
I think you missed the point pretty hard if you just thought that was David Simon going “haha these are dumb!”
