Are capitalists monsters? Does making a lot of money require a person act like a “monster” to get there?
Showtime’s Billions answered that question with a resounding, expletive-laden “yes” on May 10, in “The Chris Rock Test.” As hedge fund manager Bobby “Axe” Axelrod (Damian Lewis) faces off with billionaire rival Michael Prince (Corey Stoll) during Prince’s financial annual conference “The Mike…

Week after week Mrs. America spins the life and likeness of conservative leader Phyllis Schlafly. But there is one subject the FX on Hulu show is surprisingly honest about: the depiction of liberals prioritizing abortion over almost any other issue.
Liberal determination to enshrine a “right” to kill unborn babies appeared in multiple episodes including Wednesday’s episode “Jill,” where one…

Amazon Prime’s latest series Upload recently debuted, and unfortunately, it’s nothing less than a big disappointment. Somehow, this sci-fi satire manages to make even the afterlife political. It just goes to show that not even death can stop the social justice warriors on TV.

Schlafly Marriage Demeaned, as ‘Mrs. America’ Glorifies Feminist One
Culture

Rather than a battle of the sexes, the latest Mrs. America episode was a battle of the marriages that crowned the radical feminists’ version superior. On one side, conservatives Fred and Phyllis Schlafly’s marriage. On the other, the “equal marriage” between liberals Brenda Feigen Fasteau and Marc Fasteau. Marc (played by Adam Brody) describes their marriage as “forged in the crucible of feminism…

In FX’s Breeders, viewers knew by the very first episode to expect Paul (Martin Freeman) to dehumanize his children by constantly swearing at them. This includes the very first scene of the series. As it turns out, though, viewers learn from April 27’s episode, “No Cure (Part 2),” that he and his wife have been dehumanizing their son, Luke, since before he was even born.

To say we’re going through a difficult time right now is an understatement. But that’s nothing compared to the disaster liberals believe we’re facing from a Donald Trump presidency. In fact, it’s such a disaster that they have to construct an entire miniseries to warn us about it. Just listen to the people behind HBO’s The Plot Against America.

‘Mrs. America’ Makes Conservative Schlafly A Cold ‘Antihero'

Eagle Forum founder Phyllis Schlafly remains a heroine to many conservatives. Clearly, she is not to the makers of Mrs. America, which debuted on FX on Hulu Wednesday.
From the start, Schlafly is shown pretending. She pastes a smile to walk a runway in a red, white and blue bikini at a Republican fundraiser. Once she’s safely facing backstage, the phony smile is dropped.

It’s no secret that New Amsterdam’s psychiatrist Dr. Iggy Frome is a “bleeding heart liberal.” His left-wing views drive many show plots including one in the Season 2 finale, “A Matter of Seconds.” Focusing on Red Flag laws, the finale subtly promoted gun control by featuring an unsympathetic gun owner whose firearm was taken when his wife petitioned the court, complaining he was dangerous.

It sadly appears that Apple TV+ is going to stick to shoving political agendas into its original programming. Even worse, they now seem to be dragging minors into their issues. Basically, their latest show Home Before Dark presents all the expected feminist and social justice nonsense, this time through the eyes of a little girl. There are truly no depths too low for this streaming service.

Alt History Drama: Populist President Gives 'Permission' to Bigots

When liberals aren’t shoveling out fake news to push their agenda, they’re usually shoveling out fake history to push their agenda. Take HBO’s The Plot Against America, for example. The latest episode paints an America that was always anti-Semitic, only to be publicly revealed by a populist president. And somehow, this turns into yet another Donald Trump drag by the media.
