Enjoyed the first few episodes, but it soon felt icky to watch. The turning point for me, maybe, was learning that Dre was abused and potentially special needs. It made me question the whole premise of the show. The show calls out this array of injustices -- predatory men, racist progressives, toxic fandom, bad foster parents and white feminist cults. But it doesn't have anything to say about them. They seem to exist purely as boogeymen so we can justify gawking at the macabre violence of an intellectually disabled person. I got nothing out of seeing Dre slowly choke out her girlfriend. It just felt plain gross to watch. It feels dumb saying this because I watch dozens of TV shows and movies every year where there's a dumb amount of violence. But the viscerality was something else here.
