Woke garbage. Turned it off after 2 episodes


This show is written by woke lunatics for woke lunatics. No reason to watch it for normal people.

In episode 1 janitor at the hospital lectures Peacemaker that he is racist because he kills too many poc people. Peacemaker says its not his fault that so many criminals are poc, he kills them regardless of their color. Janitor insists that this is still racist. And Peacemaker says that he will try to be less racist and will try to kills more whites.... Something like that.

So much cringe. Almost turned it off right there after few minutes. Decided to give it a chance.

But nope. Then at the end of episode 2 father of Peacemaker is arrested and put in general cell. Then all white criminals who sat there - stay on their knees and start giving nazi salutes to father and "hail" him because he is some beloved Nazi Idol or whatever. And black criminals give side eye to that.....

I laughed so cringe and ridiculously over the top it was. And even went to see if this was at the comics. Nope. In the comics father of Peacemaker commits suicide when he was 5 years old. Because daddy was commanding a Nazi concentration camp during WW2. But then married and lived quiet life. When news about his past work broke out - he committed suicide out of shame. He was not some Crime Lord who did this when Peacemaker was 40 years old. They made that up for tv show.

I was surprised that James Gunn is sole writer for those episodes. After he was cancelled by woke crowd - he still caters to them and tries to appease those lunatics....

I was surprised that no one really talks about Peacemaker tv show and there is no hype. Now I know why. Because no one really watches it. Not to mention its very boring and not much happens.

I don't factor "wokeness" into my rating formula, though I will agree the show was pretty poor--from what I saw anyways. I wanted to quit after the first episode, but figured to be fair I should at least watch two. That was enough for me.

I enjoyed The Suicide Squad, but this just fell flat.

You're racist and love Nazis. We get it.

I like hats.
