My issue isn’t that the drama in the show is based on superficial issues, but that the show has a bizarre tendency to make what minimal drama it establishes evaporate. For example:

I’d have more sympathy for this point if the right hadn’t spent the last year complaining about non-existent CRT teaching in elementary and high schools. 

Get fucked

She did pretty well, but she failed to effectively rebut charges that she is black, so she will still struggle to get confirmed.

Dylan is probably a fair comparion, but I’d say he exceeds Springsteen by a fair bit.

I just finished the season and in one of the last episodes she talks about how she convinced a guard at Rikers to eat least meat and she was so proud of herself.  But she spent pretty much the whole series deflecting blame and never really seems to feel bad about stealing from her employees.  You don’t really get a…

Yes, this is exactly where my mind went when I watched it last night! I could care less to know that there is yet another sociopathic compulsive liar out there (truly, they are legion). The real story isn’t that she was taken in by this idiot, but that she did then and continues now to avoid taking ANY responsibility…

I’m on episode #3 of Bad Vegan...and I wateched Tinder Swindler...my issue with all these women is they rarely take accountablity for their bad decisions. Sarma is telling what HE did but rarely is she self-reflecting in the bad decisions she made. It seems like shes passing the buck and putting all the blame on him,…

I worked for Melngailis once upon a time, and I’ll just say that I’ve definitely seen her sneak out to eat cheese.

To be accused of murder once may be regarded as a misfortune; to be accused of murder twice looks like carelessness.

Yeah, the policy of not putting a season up until the next one is airing has been a bit unfair under these circumstances.

Calling Holmes a “potentially brilliant innovator” is like calling Anna Sorokin a “potential German heiress”.

too rich to be bullied.

Puh-leeze.  Give credit where credit is due.  It’s Mama Kris who was the guiding force in this idiot’s life.  No more, no less.

This really misidentifies the problem of robber barons.

I don’t think she is wrong to diagnose what robber barons like the Russells are doing with their ill-gotten riches—basically bribing their way to the top of sociopolitical circles—as a fundamentally bad thing.

My complaint is there aren’t nearly enough people stepping in horse shit, being run over by carriages, and coughing from bronchitis. C+

So I am OK with the show’s treatment of Agnes so far, subject to my general complaint about making this class of people more likeable than they should be.

Exactly. A goal isn’t really a “good idea.” An idea is a path to realizing that goal.

The amount of irony involved in her saying “call bullshit immediately” is staggering.
