There’s a theory that season 2 is about to reveal that it’s set in the DPRK and is meant to showcase that North Korea is the worst: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=gmEVUxVwUWk (warning, lib video)
Which, if true, makes it libtrash. It’s just a theory though and we’ll have to wait and see.
In general, it’s a pretty good commentary on capitalism and what it forces people to do, but certainly not the best in that category.
That’s one thing about movies made in capitalist countries with anti-capitalist themes… since they can’t show a successful revolution, they by consequence can’t have happy endings, or protagonists who win, and so are almost always incredibly depressing. I wanna see a goddamn successful revolution and a happy ending, we have so few of those, but they moved mountains.
Yeah, Western media can be really good at showing the horrors of capitalism, but they almost always just go “well it’s what it is” instead of solving it. Not even fantasy pretend solving it.
