i think there are talks for a season 2?

no one is self aware. everyone is influenced by everything. we all have our own "thoughts" but none of our own thoughts come from ourselves. it's through subconscious external influence. you believe masks are bowing down in fear of governmental control, while others believe they are effective methods to prevent germ spread (even outside of covid aka their original use). whether this is from the community we live in or the media we consume, these are not novel ideas.

but sure sure, no point arguing as neither of us will ever change our minds. it's clear we are both too small-minded to ever be open to opposing opinions than our own. self-awareness is realizing that no one is truly self-aware.

sure, nothing i can do to change your mind. as long as you're not spreading hateful rhetoric against gay people, you're certainly allowed to have your qualms against netflix. still, there's little evidence of any form of media "propaganda" influencing people to turn gay. else, everyone you know would be gay.

i don't think you realize that rejecting masks, vaccines, and woke propaganda are ALSO forms of psychological manipulation and propaganda against them. reading articles or reddit threads about why vaccines are poison in your blood is quite literally propaganda against vaccines. even though you don't think so, the political media you consume (which is tailored more toward your viewpoint btw) is psychologically manipulating you into thinking these things. you think masks won't work because you've seen rhetoric online praise that theory. you believe there are only two genders because you grew up only knowing two existed and because a doctor told you so. from birth until now, all your opinions were formed through subjective propaganda and "psychological manipulation." it works both ways.

even if you do not believe me, please reflect on HOW you've come to your views and opinions. family members? political speeches? online threads? you claim everyone are "sheep" but that includes EVERYONE. if everyone truly thought for themselves, there would be no support toward individual politicians or political parties. we don't have to agree on the same points, but it is helpful to acknowledge that BOTH sides get easily manipulated by media. why do you think people believe in cults, there was no moon landing, mass shootings are faked including 9/11, vaccines are poison, the earth is flat, woke propaganda corrupts minds and changes children, etc? do you think you came up with all these theories yourself?

if pollution is the cause of chemical castration and "gayness in wildlife" or through cosmetic products and water supplies, then why are you not gay? why are more people not gay? there is a much smaller percentage of gay people than straight. if you grew up with this "gay propaganda" then why are you not gay? i grew up with it and i'm not gay. many people grew up with it and are not gay.

plus as you say, there were likely "many homosexual Greeks anyway" outside of gay sex being used for militant power. why do you say that there must've been many homosexual Greeks if gayness is unnatural and they had no access to woke gay propaganda Netflix at the time?

"gayness is found in nature" was looked for BECAUSE non-lgbtq+ people would kill gay people in the name of being unnatural and a sin. it is a counterargument against a hateful one denying their existence. how can they be "unnatural" if it is found in nature? that is why that argument exists. kindly note that throughout history, gay people were hunted purely for their sexuality and never the other way around. even today it persists. rather than question if propaganda makes people unnaturally gay, why not reflect on why that bothers you so much? and why is there disdain for a group of people who have not done anything to you besides exist?

i don't remember much about the show, but i do remember when i was watching it, i drew the massive family/relationship tree on a napkin and went on an hour long rant to my sibling. good times.

i don't think he's a character, i think it might just be trying to set up a second season or maybe it's her discovering a man from the outside world that survived or potentially someone from her past. as far as i know, he's not a character in the show we've met before.

honestly i thought this would be a little lighthearted fun romcom, but i really love the social commentary and world building. the gender differences (like day not knowing what a urinal is) and the dark farm storyline are so interesting for only a 6ep miniseries. all of the characters are genuinely likable, even the "villains" and their relationships with each other feel believable. yes sometimes it's kinda cringe, but there's a lot of heart in this. i thoroughly enjoyed every part.

animals naturally have gay sex in the wild. if gayness is found in nature, then why can it not be found within humans too? is it that insane that out of 8 billion people you think everyone would and should only be attracted to the opposite sex? being gay is seen as natural now...because it is? gay people fought centuries for their rights but it's been present all throughout history. you only see it as "woke propaganda" now because people can finally exist as themselves. whether netflix includes it or not, does it matter?

but why do the actions of hamas mean the innocent people, children, and BABIES in gaza deserve to get relentlessly bombed? you're saying no mercy for hamas who killed children, but are then supporting israel who are bombing innocent children? last time i checked, the children of gaza are not the ones who "initiated" the war

I actually do this on a regular basis because for some reason I get a little intimidated by high ratings and hyped popular shows. I like turning bad ones on just to turn my brain off for a bit, although some are pretty atrocious and toxic (who would've guessed a low rated one would be bad lol). I also think it's good to find some hidden gems, though I've almost never found one under 6.0 on here so you're a brave one 😭

maybe it's because i'm busy with life as i grow older, but i've been in the most significant drama slump of my life. however, even when i'm not as busy, i still tend to find it really difficult to get back into dramas. maybe it's because i outgrew the genre? or maybe because a lot of the newer shows feel so same-y and saturated? ANOTHER ceo romance? ANOTHER slow burn? ANOTHER 8 episode netflix original with a cliffhanger ending? i'm not even someone who typically watches airing shows and i tend to lean more toward hidden gems. though, even with hidden gems it's hard for me to stay interested. so maybe i'm just outgrowing the genre after all?

yeah that might be why lol. i think it's really just tolerance building 😭 cuz ik there are many non-drama watchers who find even kdramas cringey. i just learned to tolerate it cuz there are some great stories and characters past the cringe.

OMG I KEPT THINKING HE REMINDED ME OF SOMEONE BUT I COULDN'T PUT MY FINGER ON IT THANK YOU LOL

it's supposed to be cringe lol, some ppl are just more immune to it than others. i've watched so many cringe series that this isn't even that bad compared to them LOL. the more cringe you watch, the higher tolerance you have

okay thank you so much!! i'll probably look for another one then

it's really on perspective. ni-ki dances better than the rest, yes, but he isn't a better performer than k for example. if you ask him to waack he probably can't do better than taki. jiyoon has a tonally amazing voice, but isn't a more technically skilled singer than jungeun. jeemin and saebi do great with presence, but i was also drawn to juwon and yui who got little to nothing. in my bag i only watched koko and juwon, lovesick girls i only replayed koko's part, in spicy koko overtook the stage. it's really just opinion and perspective. she doesn't need to be the BEST dancer if she's already a great dancer. and regardless, she won by votes, not by producer pick (same with sarang).

we're really enjoying it so far!! just wondering, is atypical more like drama then? just because the genres here and on netflix feel more like romance than anything

we're literally watching moving now LOL, i was wondering for afterwards

does this focus more on the family with powers or the romance? i want to watch this with my sister, but we usually don't enjoy watching romance together and prefer more action or family. is this a good watch?
