strange rant?
Am I the only one who feels weird at the end when he talks about a bright future while caring for the baby? The world is ending and we just keep pretending it's not. It was probably supposed to be reassuring, but the outright lie only makes everything more hopeless. Although nothing should necessarily be literal, but coupled with strange religious ignorant quotes about fatherhood and how every second character has a child, feels more and more strange. everyone just keeps pretending that everything is normal and recreating as if it is not outright ignorance and cruelty towards their children or even anyone, because there are not enough resources for everyone and if your child will survive, he will take from another.
Maybe in society it's still mostly normalized to have children despite the now and the future, so this is a reflection of it, but given how much social justice stories told through patients that are so on the nose, would have expected a more thoughtful approach. also all of that going on in reality around me too, this is expected, but we don't watch this show for ignorance, which will never be addressed (2 seasons behind already and not a word about what a serious, underestimated problem this is)
i feel like corporations are trying to gain people's trust, so they are funding a purely leftist show, but at the same time push through normalization of the way of life that benefits them. Who in their right mind can have a child these days? Especially educated people, through whom more and more people pass every day, that are on the verge of death due to the collapsing system. is it just laziness of the screenwriters? I wouldn't say that this series is supposed to explore this topic, it just seems so out of touch in our time, especially to do such an ending - i don't see a hopeful scene behind the pile of ignorance or just sad lie sticking out. should it be this way? What hope can there be in a dying world? Especially when people can't admit it to themselves, so there is no talk of changing anything
