Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

If the show came out today it would be denounced as a woke, anti-american commie monstrosity by all of mainstream media

The second episode alone would've created a firestorm about "anti-US military" narratives being pushed on "our children"

Shit half the "left" would deride it as "qanon for tankies" considering all the pro-NAFO and pro-state department takes being pushed around these days

I envy you, I wish I could watch it a first time again

Legit frightening how much more radically right-wing us society has become in some very important ways.
