I'm not one to gripe about woke, but ...

Running out of things to watch on Apple, which usually has at least one above average series going at a time and often several more, I decide to go back to what I "swiped left" on and settled on "Prime Target".

I started out disjointed and boring, and then devolved into stupidity and pandering.

I can appreciate including members of minorities in a story, even switching races sometimes to make a point, but this was really a bit much, and in the first half hour.

The most brilliant math professor in Cambridge University was black ... with an American accent, and had Alzheimer's dementia.

As soon as we learn this the brilliant "Will Hunting" clone character from this goes to a bar and shows us all that he is a promiscuous gay who does it on the first date.

That was when I hit exit and began looking for something else.

Any one of these type movies alone is pretty much nothing. Some stand out as being particularly preachy, but that can be overlooked for a good story - example of the gay episode in "The Last Of Us" which was pretty good.

But there comes a point where you have to wonder, why are gays and other discriminated group so exaggeratedly over-represented in our media.

Are we to be programmed to think about race in media repetitive way, that is that any white male in any role is evil, incompetent. rude, obnoxious, etc. If we're talking about Trumpers at least that somewhat approached reality, but for every average sane American, why do we need to have his foisted on us so in our faces?

I think that media ownership is so consolidated now that for whatever reason edicts can come down from on high to micromanage productions; plots, characters, sexuality.

It used to be that when we say a gay character we were programmed to think HE was evil, or SHE had integrity, but these stereotypes actually affect the way people see the world since we interact with media and our devices these days a lot more than we interact with each other.

I'm just saying this annoying purposeful treating of me like some kind of idiot by media needs to be examined from an objective perspective. Do it subtly so we do not perceive it, as it might happen in society as things change to be more just, I don't want to be clobbered over the head with this stuff.

It makes me feel like there is no room for me in this world of the brainwashed future where the average citizen can't understand how much their reality is processed, like the processed food garbage he, she, they, it eats daily.
