Heathers 2018

With the rise of the Alt-Right and Neo-Nazis just becoming Nazis again. And half the country clamoring for the return to the racist 50s when white people could just .. ya know prosper without having to fuss too much with all these non-normal non-white people. You have to figure eventually they would make their kind of show. You'd have to wonder what kind of show would they make? Would they make Archie Bunker but not sarcastic? (Because for those who don't know the fact that Archie Bunker was a racist POS was the joke of the show it wasn't like a documentary)

Well wonder no more. Do you hate minorities? Are you tired of politically correct culture ruining your ability to call someone fat to their face without getting shamed out of a job? Do you think journalists are pansies who have never had a real job trying to shame innocent Americans who are just achieving the American dream that one day you just might achieve yourself? Do you fight taxes against the rich (like the estate tax WHICH ONLY AFFECTS THE RICH) because one day you might be a lottery winner and you'll be gosh darned if you have to pay taxes when you get rich? Then this is the show for you. This is a show that skewers minorities of all types as "abnormal" and "shocking". Watch our cool headed straight white female protagonist just get exhausted and ask "can't we all just be normal tonight"? Watch our popular kids (who are all also minorities exercise their "minority privilege"[1] by threatening to take away innocent college scholarships from white males for violating "esoteric social justice rules that they don't even care about".

Get ready for new Alt-Right memes. Are you tired of Chanty Binx? Oh wait if you're tired of her you probably know her as "Big Red Feminist" Get ready for Heather No 1 memes where she says the things that that man-o-sphere is always saying feminists say. Get ready to hear that body-positive is literally the same thing as fat because literally zero thin people need body positivity. Get ready to mock all types of social justice as our protagonist of white man and white female are here to bring the school's queen bees to their knees. Even the Asian bee.

[1] For the record there's no such thing but if you think there is then you like the creators of this show are both wrong and enjoy this drek

With the rise of PC-Culture and Social Justice Warriors becoming figurative Nazi's whilst making actual ones. And half the world slowly descending to return to the late 30's when a couple of white nations rose up before being defeated by a group of white and non-white nations. You have to figure eventually there would be a show that would kick some chins. You'd wonder what kind of show they'd make? Would they make Archie Bunker but not sarcastic... ofcourse not cause that would be an epic lawsuit from the Riverdale creators.

Well wonder no longer! Do you dislike political correctness, are you tired of seeing someone else's viewpoint being shoved down your throat? Blahblah etcetera... This is a show that has a diverse cast with people in all shapes and sizes and they all are, in their own unique way, dicks. It presses a finger on the nasty side of this new culture that is slowly taking over the media landscape, holds no punches for the old one and does it in a funny, ironic and satirical way. Get ready for a stylish series that takes a lot from Riverdale and the original Heathers and weaves it into a lovely mish mash of 80s and 18s. Suicide is painless and we don't necessarily need the drama like it was portrayed in 13 Reasons Why. Certain scenes and how they are presented are simply "how they are" despite their exaggerated and so delightfully cynical (yellow Heather's suicide roll for example) portrayal.

I watched the movie a while back and didn't think much of it. It was ok, it was cult for sure but I didn't see all the hubbub around it. With this series however... I do. I applaud it for being a counter to 80% of the series and movies that attempt to shove it in, for being so goddamn neon, for not shying away from what is right or wrong. The acting is a small notch under over-the-top I fail to see how one cannot see this for what it is. There's a lot in this show for those willing to scratch the surface even though it rehashes quite a few things and is, at times, tedious.
