Alcohol forces people to drink it! So destructive!

This show seems to confuse "privilege" and "confidentiality".

The writers do not seem to think Clementine is actually a mass-murderer. She is, but they're dumb enough to white knight their own character, for some reason.

"On a related note, this show is going to have political resonances this season that I was only too happy to ignore when we parted company a year ago, isn’t it?"

"Psychosomatic" you mean? lolsomatic

Yep, and the reviewer somehow totally missed that. DO YOUR JOB

He never said it was privileged. He said it was confidential. Privilege wouldn't mean a damned thing anyway - it would prevent forced disclosure. Confidential status means Ernesto can't reveal it of his own volition.

That strawman in your head is crisping up nicely.

Mass-murderer Clementine gets everyone good killed? That's what you want the story to turn into?

You got hoodwinked, then. A lot of character dialogue said "KENNY IS GOING CRAZY" but he actually wasn't. It was very much a case of telling while not showing (in fact, showing the opposite).

Was Ernesto actually a lawyer? He talked about getting "extra money" for doing the Chuck runs. I don't think an associate doing grunt work would get paid extra for doing it; maybe a mailroom drone Jimmy worked with?

Biglaw is all snobs all the time. There is no fucking way they would hire Jimmy.

Perhaps it will finally end the tedious, bullshit arguments about how nothing but sex is "censored" on American TV.

If you want to get technical, they make money by defending no one - transactional matters are huge. Not sexy, but…

DAE LE FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE???

Is To Kill a Mockingbird seen as an instruction manual now?

People don't really want to think very hard about the real causes of crime. Much better to mumble something about "bad schools" and go on living in their lily-white prog neighborhoods.

So you're basically for rule by the strongest. See, arms enforce equality. No arms, the strongest rule.

Oh…dear. You don't get women.

Oh, I'm sure some proggie SJW would be bitching about trivializing suicide, or "this is not-wanting-to-kill-yourself privilege."
