[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] if you think this show rings eerily true[/quote].[b]..then you are an alarmist, similar to a doomsday [b]prepper.  [/b]

There are good people on both sides of the two major parties. This book/show is so FAR from today's reality.  I'm not complicit, nor a MAGA supporter, but I do know that this would not happen [i]today[/i].   I will be highly irritated if the producers try to draw a straight line from MAGA to Gilead.

+1.  Please provide evidence of something concrete that has Happened that’s similar to the show.  [/quote]

I've read a couple of critiques of Season 2 as essentially "liberal paranoia bait" and I'm sympathetic with some of the arguments. I'm a liberal, but Damon Linker wrote one that I found to ring somewhat true.

But then I read a NYT profile of Jordan Peterson, and how he thinks that we should return to "forced monogamy" and "patriarchy" because some angry guys can't get girlfriends, and it gives me pause.

Anyway, no one in my circle watches this show, so I've been dying to ask this question:

How did Nick not get executed when they were caught at the end of Episode 3? I just watched Episode 6 this morning and the implied purge story line among the Commanders is fascinating to me.
