What I'm saying is that the story line isn't done yet. I think it was a good setup
I don't feel great about what they are doing and maybe I am looking too far into it, but it seems like they are playing on the wrong themes.
hummels and heroin - opioids and old people - are we really going to humor this? It's not a real crisis to me. People complain about police shooting people dead on routine traffic stops like it's a skit from Tales from the Hood, and the orange cheetoh replies with some shit about opioids. Matt and Trey decide to humor the opioid angle.
sons a witches - something about trying to avoid witch hunts echoes Trump's statements against the investigation of russian tampering. It also reflects the current "witch hunt" of old men sexually harassing young women in entertainment. Dog whistles should be less obvious to the human ear.
I feel like Matt and Trey are going into the wrong side of history, and I am still watching, because I am trying to be open minded, but not sure if this season will redeem itself. It's been kind of depressing. Like, evil won last November, so eat your memberberries.
