The series follows Chastain's character, known simply as The Savant, as she goes undercover in online forums in extremist, alt-right corners of the web to identify potential violent hate crimes—and help prevent them before they happen.

If the world is to be saved, it will be white liberal women who save it.


According to Hollywood.

Haven’t they figured out yet that people want escapism from Hollywood, not someone parroting one or another political viewpoint?

We don’t need our fiction telling us “Liberal bad” or “Conservative bad.” We have the 24 hour news cycle for that.

What they want: Liberal White Women saving the day

What they get: Liberal White Women getting games banned and demonizing masculinity

Well, it's often asked "who is this for?" but this time at least I know exactly who the target audience is.

They won’t watch it. They just want you to.

I actually don’t think it looks that bad. And ATV+ gets the benefit of the doubt. But this one doesn’t look like my cup of tea.

It's given us a new meme template which people are having a lot of fun with.

Confused leftist white woman trying to make sense of what she's seeing

Looks like ice cube adaptation for War Of The Worlds ...

With an AWFL protagonist

Hard pass.

I remember the old "you guys know you are gonna watch it" line of reasoning that used to be fun on here.

But then shite started getting cancelled because nobody watched it. . .

, , ,Now we get to hear the preemptive "if nobody watches it, it is because they are all the -ists and -phobes."
