LRTs: I liked Enola Holmes, but, yeah, it's got problems with tokenism. also its portrayal of radicals as dangerous, violent, and less important than wealthy reformists isn't great.

personally i'm in favor of our fluffy historical media just throwing that shit out the window, being like "fuck it in my victorian england there poc everywhere" what makes that ring a little hollow in this case is that in ENOLA HOLMES all the main characters are still white

Yeah it's that thing where you try to be progressive by making characters PoC who are "important" in-universe but irl are still just bit parts It's why we have all those Black school principals on sitcoms

Yeah I loved Ratched, but it seemed a little unlikely that an Asian guy would be the head of the psychiatric hospital in the late '40's.
