Things I hate about this show

I am doing this mostly from memory and from having only glanced at a couple of episodes briefly (skimmed them through, skipping a lot, though).

I tried to watch the first episode fully, but when the "ETHNIC spirit of the Earth" was shown to be just some old, man-voiced hag with a streak in her hair (what the heck was that all about?), and not having any duties but to just SLEEP.. in heavy make-up, I couldn't really watch much further.

Things I hate about this show include;

- The token racial stereotypes.

Sure, there probably ARE gangs of kids/teenagers that consist of multiple races so purely, but is that really realistic? And does that stereotype HAVE to be showed down our throats at every change hollyweird gets?

Look, people are mostly comfortable with their peers and others that are like them. Japanese like being in japanese groups, black people form black gangs, and .. well, not every other race/ethnicity/culture is equal, because mentioning some other ones in this same token, would probably raise some irrational emotions somewhere.

I mean, this is done by purely business reasons - to grab the maximum audience. If you have an 'unspecified asian' (which, I think, is pretty insulting, that you have two people from specific countries, and some that are just from 'South America' or 'Asia'), a black dude, a couple of fema-fascist heroes, a Soviet Unionian (how do you write this anyway? Sovietian?) blonde bimbo, and 'south american' and the irish guy, you have all the bases covered. I mean, surely almost any kid can identify with someone there?

And heck, even if it's just all asians, all white people and all black people, that's still going to be a huge majority of the planet's population.

But I hate it. It's not realistic, it's so cheesy and so clearly calculated, so insulting and so culturally impossible, that unless those people have all been born in the same country and thus have the same culture, there's no way they would ever form a coherent group (ever tried teaching traditional Swedish values to an immigrant somalian, for example? Let me know how it works out), and they would definitely form groups within their 'own cultures', like, the 'unspecified asian' would mingle with other 'unspecified asians' who all have the same 'unspecified asian language' and thousands of years of cultural history, upbringing, ways, and attitudes. Just for example.

- That the KIDS and the AUDIENCES are told all kinds of clichés, about "Sometimes it takes a lot of work" (a direct quote, if I remember correctly) - but the corporate *beep* who are REALLY doing all the damage to this planet, by keeping the electric car from becoming a viable commercial choice (instead, they push HYBRIDs, and we all know what a scam that is), are left off the hook. Oh, sure, they demolish the plans of some wicked people, but when they talk about fixing the planet and responsibility, they never talk to the CORPORATIONS, like Nike, McDonald's, the big banks, oil companies, car manufacturers, or other corporations that just LOVE packing everything in plastic, who love polluting the planet with their airplanes, cars, and gasoline, and who just love double-, or even triplepacking everything.

The responsibility for the CORPORATE CRIMES is put solely on the shoulders of INNOCENT VICTIMS of such crimes. So, if _WE_, the audiences, take the responsibility of taking part in the recycling scam (as I have researched it, a lot of the supposedly 'recycled' stuff has just ended up in garbage dumps, with the rest of the garbage, but HEY, at least YOU, the recycler, have a clear conscience, because you don't have to know what happens to your trash after you 'recycle' it!), the planet will be saved, DESPITE the millions of times worse crimes against the planet that the corporations are doing in a MASSIVE scale with ENORMOUS budgets.

What an individual does diminishes almost completely when you compare to what even just one single corporation does - how much does each pollute the planet during one year? How much garbage do they produce, how much do they CONTRIBUTE to the SYSTEM that is DESIGNED to pollute?

Yeah. That hypocrisy really pisses me off. "Recycle, recycle, recycle, sometimes it takes a lot of work!!".. at the same time, as we are not shown the CEOs of the corporations take polluting holidays with their private jets so they can have sex with luxury prostitutes and drink expensive champagne and whiskey/scotch, while smoking cigars and watch their harem girls swim in their huge swimming pools in the Alps, and then take helicopter rides to places where no one else can get to in the mountains or forests, just so they can have their servants fish for them.

Yeah, we have to swallow 'sometimes it takes a lot of work', while no such sentiment is told to the CEO fatcats that live a luxurious lives off the exploited worker kids' backs.

This show doesn't mention the children that make shoes for Nike under a second-schedule (instead of a minute or an hour schedule), or the kids that create fireworks in dangerous, injure-creating and even lethal work conditions, where accidents happen a lot with the gunpowder - but that's ok, because the kids get food at least every other day, and that food consists of meals that are sometimes even better than just a bowl of rice.

The hypocrisy of it all, rrgh!

Then there are the fema-fascist, 'minority'-worshipping attitudes that slam the viewer in the face - the constant misandry (even here in IMDb comments there's misandry, and no one even notices it, but then accusations of sexism (of course against women, because it's forbidden to use this word to mean sexism against men, which is of course another form of misandry) fly all around, when there is no sexism. Sickening.

Someone said that pink is a girls' color (though he/she didn't type it correctly), and that in itself is a misandrist statement. Did he/she mean that men are FORBIDDEN to use or like pink? Don Johnson wore pink in Miami Vice. Shouldn't he then be put inside a cell? 'Willie Tanner', or at least the actor wore a pink shirt. Is he considered a girl? I know he's a wimpy character, but come on.

A lot of men have worn pink and liked pink, but then suddenly, the mid-1990s came, and someone thought that a COLOR can have a gender, and that its ownership can be DENIED from 50% of the humanity, based on their physical body and its properties!

Really?

Can't you see how insane and misandristic this is? If I were to say that girls can't use pink, it's a man's color, how sane would you think my sentiment is? And yet, when the same exact thing is done genders reversed, no one even notices it. It has become so common.

I hate this show, and I hate the misandristic IMDb commenters, who don't even have a gram of sense (why would it have to be an 'ounce'?). Think about what you are saying.

This show is misandristic, and racistic against white people, especially white, heterosexual MEN (someone even mentioned 'homophobia' here, which is another slam against heterosexuality - there is no homophobia, NO ONE fears gays! I have never met anyone who would be terrified of gays. It's just shaming language to use FEAR as something non-masculine, so that men would fall in line with the insanity the gay-agenda-promoters spew).

There is no sexism against women in this show (on the contrary, women are shown as POWERFUL figures, and RULERS (Come on, GAIA?? If the whole PLANET being a woman, and the source of _ALL_POWER_ in this show is not enough "grrlll powahh", then what is?), and there's no racism against anyone.. (black and asian people are shown to be powerful and resourceful, even when they are young) ... except the WHITE people, because they can freely be shown as CLUMSY MORONS, who constantly have to be LECTURED, especially by women.

We can't be truly equal until we can talk about things with their real names, and until we can bring the truth and the facts openly on the table, without anyone deciding to "get offended" by someone who dares to bring them. And until we realize that both sexes have EQUAL ownership of ALL COLORS, for crying out loud! And until every single human being, regardless of their bodily qualities, is completely free to utter ANY utterance or word that someone else is.

I hate this show, it's just another "divide and conquer" tactic that lets the corporate crooks off the hook, while overworking the regular people even more than they already have been. Sickening.
