the is*ael palestine joke in the new succession trailer is in such poor taste. will you still be watching?

akajustmerry answered:

succession is a show about rich horrible people with a lot of influence over a world they’re totally insulated from, based on a real family whose media empire almost single-handedly ushered in the current global alt-right movement over the last 30 years. if you’re only just now getting that these people are fucking rancid and not your meow meows because of tom’s comment idk what to tell you. the joke didn’t surprise me because that’s who they are. succession is a hyper-spectacle about people with so much wealth they don’t experience consequences and so have no regard for human life. its about conveying that disconnect and exploring how it totally robs you of humanity. yes, i will still be watching because i never laboured under the delusion that these characters were aspirational, or that the show framed them as such. did you think that the show about people with no empathy was gonna have them say empathetic things? if it’s too much for you, or upsetting to you personally then don’t watch it. but i truly think a lot of people that watch succession have fallen for the intentional illusion of insular disconnection that Jesse Armstrong creates between these characters and the world so that when you’re reminded that these people don’t give a shit about the world you think it’s so shocking when it’s the whole point. also, for anyone who doesn’t know this for whatever reason, the roys are copypastes of the Murdoch family whose news media have (among many other things) deliberately suppressed news of Palestine in and smeared Palestinians in favour of Israel for half a century. like, please be serious: what did you expect from this show? please think about the context…

succession they are all awful! every single one of them!
