The Netflix captions aren't accurately transcribing Bushmaster's dialectic and it's pissing me off.

Not to mention how frequently the “twist” on SVU is that the rape victim is actually lying. Trains viewers to assume victims are liars.

In the defense of the "oh no they lawyered up" trope, from what I understand these are relatively accurate portrayals of police attitudes. The police (from their perspective) catch criminals, and the lawyers and judges (from the police perspective) set them free.

This is of course a good thing (checks and balances) but when you are one cog in a much larger machine, you can get frustrated by the people whose job it is to check and balance you.

Odd take considering that the main character is a black man who was falsely imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit!

On a lot of procedurals, you will also notice that anyone who is treated roughly by police turns out to have been hiding something, or turns out to be guilty of something themselves. The only reason that people don't welcome police attention is that they're guilty.

That's one of the reasons I actively avoid them. They're always 'the cops are always the good guys trying to save the world and if they have to bust a few heads to do it, well...' Also, cannot deal with the plethora of rape jokes, usually aimed at men during interrogations. No.

Probably why noir has been such a persistent cinematic expression, since it’s rooted in anti-myth.

I think the CSIs are the pinnacle of such reasoning. After all, there were "scientific" proofs against the guilty ones. The teams were never wrong.

Yeah, until you need to hide behind one of those laws or one of those cops to help you. I'll bet that reflects a much different reality then, depending on what's most convenient for you at that particular moment.

You are right
@anitasarkeesian No matter what you do... Even respecting the law of your country isn’t enough for everyone to respect you.

Considering liberals write tv shows it is them that are projecting this.

I used to think that it was important that our media reflect what our ideals *should be* and not what they *are*. I will always love idealism but we gotta take inventory more often.

Imagine if cops behaved like procedurals, constantly taking the law into their own hands, abusing authority, and being a bunch of reckless clow- oh, fuck...
