Unzip and Attack posted:Do any of you guys think Stringer had D killed for the reasons he gives Avon? To me it always seemed like Stringer only killed D so that he could move in on his girlfriend, given that String didn't really know what D was up to in prison.

Randomly Specific posted:If it weren't for the dinner scene at the community center I might agree with you, but that scene seems to be pretty blatant foreshadowing that Stringer had some interest.

Jerusalem posted:David Simon's "we weren't born to be niggers" bit in The Corner is a hell of a gut-punch to read, and I think it applies equally to the poor white working class we see in season 2. These are guys with pride in their work and even more pride in their history of work, but it's a thing of the past, something that no longer exists. What happens when you abandon a huge chunk of the population who have never known anything but one way of life, and leave them to sink or swim on their own? You get people turning to drugs, people turning their rage and confusion inward or outward (domestic abuse, crime, violence, alcoholism etc) and then people cluck and shake their heads and say,"These people are scum, why don't they get a real job?"

Orange Devil posted:Addiction is caused by alienation, and guess what alienation is caused by. If you guessed "capitalism", you win, except, we all lose. People being assholes is what causes alienation. Can capitalism exacerbate that? Sure, but it ain't the progenitor.
