      The past three episodes, though... this show is just starting to seem like white feminist-themed torture porn. Like, the handmaids in the capitol with their mouth sealing lip rings? That feels like something straight out of a Gor novel.

      And through this whole racist, sadomasochistic saga, we're supposed to be rooting for the white ladies and cheering at their moments of connection to each other. Golden-caged Serena Joy. Poor, misguided Aunt Lydia. And of course, plucky June, our heroine.

      Plucky white feminism is both gross and super fucking annoying. I'm so tired of seeing white feminists tweet about Kavanaugh and be like, see, abortion rights are eroding, we told you Hillary was the Second Coming and now the world is ending #resist #handmaidstale

      It's a "If Hillary was president I'd be at brunch right now" that fetishizes white women's perception of deep reproductive victimhood while ignoring the fact that professional class and wealthy white women have always and will always be able to get abortions.

      It was never Wall Street wives dying next to coat hangers in those alleys.

      And this fucking #resist and #persist mentality pretends like white women are just heroes for saying basic, common sense shit. That's the dynamic behind a lot of the phenomenon of Warrenism, right? "She persisted"? Like, it was great, but it isn't like she took a bullet.

      I'm a white woman and I get it! I love Warren's pluck, and I'm not trying to diminish her achievements. But also, she clothes herself indigenousness when convenient, essentially endorsed blood-based native identity determination, and never uttered a peep about Standing Rock.

      We white women love pluck, and we let it erase a host of racist sins from our memory: votes for the Iraq War, "super-predator" talk, handmaids lynching black women, appropriation of native identity, fucking 23andme race "science."

      Pluck is nice, but it isn't heroism. White women aren't living Handmaid's Tale. We need to get out of our "help me, I'm being oppressed headspace and get with the program. And the program is racist.

      And swear to god, if I see one more shot of a bonneted Elizabeth Moss looking up at the camera in a way that sort of looks ominous but also like she's kind of defiantly rolling her eyes like a plucky little rape slave, I'm going to scream. (/thread)

      I stopped watching it two episodes into season three. TBH, my wife and I only really managed to finish season two on inertia.

          I really do find *some* of the portrayal of Gilead insightful but the show has really just tripled down on its own racism

          Ive lost interest in the show this season. June going back to Gilead was so ridiculous, they’re just milking it at this point, problematic plot aspects aside. I really did like season 1 though warts and all.
