He could have had all the woke intentions in the world while creating it, but what we actually got wasn't woke.

In 2016 I'd have disagreed and said The Wire was the GOAT TV show. In 2022, knowing what I know now? I think I'd rank it almost the same. In fact, I think I might even rank S5 higher than 4. I couldn't really give a flying fuck about how dingers don't like school. You mean a race with a lower average IQ doesn't take to learning very well?! Clearly this must be capitalism's fault!

Yep, me and

I've had my moments too, but I try not to go full retard like whatever is going on here.
One of the only infractions/bans I got was for going pretty hard on how bad True Detective season 2 was from the first damn scene. But I feel I was eventually vindicated despite all the people claiming it would get good at some point.
But this...? I don't even know what brand of trolling this is, and am inclined to think

just off meds or some shit.

Did I include you in that grouping?
Still not sure how me saying I was able to see the ideology that the writer explicitly stated he has clearly manifest in the last seasons of the show caused such an uproar.
You all get pussy hurt when someone says water is wet?

So, everyone is herd mentality against you, but some people who agree with what you call the herd mentality aren't in the herd mentality but just have independent opinions? That doesn't strengthen your position, my dude.
Nobody is pussy hurt. You're just making bad arguments to support a bad opinion.
It happens. I liked enough of the EQ Luclin models to generally say I liked them. Not a popular opinion. It happens. You don't have to go retardo and try to prove your unpopular opinion is right and good and everyone else is wrong and pussy hurt for disagreeing.

Nobody is denying that the main writer intended the show to be a social commentary
I mean FOR FUCKS SAKE, that's one of the reasons why it's the greatest show ever because it combines social critique with narrative and entertainment. So telling us there's a progressive message somewhere or that the creator leans left isn't telling us anything we don't already know lol
Liberals/progressives have always existed - commentary on race etc has always existed..
The difference in this woke era is that race,, gender sexuality have become more important than ever and are now someone's defining characteristics - it's progressivism on steroids
If the Wire was truly woke then it would be beating you over the head with race and gender every five minutes - OR certain plot points would be toned down or toned up in order to comply with the woke standards.
This absolutely does not happen and they literally couldn't make the same show today.

David Simon returning to Baltimore. The Punisher is a cop, Marlo from the Wire will be playing a detective in this 6 episode mini series
I guess casting the actor that played Marlo as a cop means it's in the same continuity as The Wire. Missed opportunity IMO.
