Sarah Silverman’s 'I Love You, America' Ruins Unity With Nudity
Culture
Sarah Silverman’s I Love You, America series on Hulu sounds like one of the biggest oxymorons available for streaming right now. What really hypes up the irony is the idea of Sarah Silverman of all people trying to “bridge the divide” between people across the country. So does the show succeed? Well, it honestly depends how tolerant you are.

'Designated Survivor' Finds Racism in Pandemics, Drugs, Capitalism
Culture
After two pretty straightforward, non-controversial episodes, the third episode of ABC’s Designated Survivor’s second season suddenly packed three episodes worth of liberal politics into one. Wednesday’s episode “Outbreak” had everything, from a deadly superbug, to an evil pharmaceutical company, to a Confederate statue debate, to a “sexually ambiguous” frog.

Rebooted ‘Dynasty’ Goes Full-Blown Politically Correct
Culture
If, like me, you were a fan of the 1980’s pop culture iconic television show, Dynasty, no doubt you were looking forward to the premiere of the reboot on CW Wednesday night. The episode titled “I Hardly Recognized You” that aired on October 11th was properly named, if you ask me. Some parts of the show are now hardly recognizable.

'Mr. Robot' Returns Warning of 'Dark Future' of Trump, Capitalism
Culture
USA’s anti-capitalist product of the very corporate Universal Studios Mr. Robot has in the past been almost embarrassingly unashamed of its Marxist, anarchistic, and borderline anti-American style. However, it previously had the miniscule advantage of taking place before the liberal apocalypse of November 2016. Not anymore. The third season premiere lets loose its latest anger against both…

‘American Horror Story’ Tries to Send ‘Obvious Anti-Gun Warning'
Culture
Tuesday’s episode of FX’s American Horror Story: Cult tried to make a statement on guns in an odd way. The episode titled “Mid-Western Assassin” opens with a mass shooting at a campaign rally, but in the wake of the Las Vegas shootings, the scene was re-edited for broadcast.
CW's New Military Drama 'Valor' Seeks to Send 'Feminist Statement'
Culture
The CW’s new military drama Valor premiered on Monday night and I was expecting the worst. Not only is The CW the home to many outspokenly liberal programs, but the main character is supposed to be the first female helicopter pilot in an Army special operations unit. That’s just a recipe for virtue signaling disaster.
HBO's 'The Deuce' Drops to New Low With Gay Threesome
Culture
When it comes to HBO’s The Deuce, the only surprise is how much lower they're able to go week after week. On a show which has yet to feature an episode without aggressive nudity, it can be a hard border to cross, but here we are. The latest episode reaches their new peak of depravity by featuring a three-way homosexual make-out session, along with some questionable underage activity.
NY Times Art Critic Cheers Stretching Gender 'To the Snapping Point'
On September 29, New York Times art critic Holland Cotter championed an exhibit of “queer” and trans art under the headline “When It Comes to Gender, Let Confusion Reign." The exhibit at the New Museum in Manhattan is titled “Trigger: Gender as a Tool and a Weapon.” Cotter cheered breaking down "the binary male-female face-off" and stretching "the perimeters of gender to the snapping point."
'Will & Grace' Stuns With Lack of Self-Awareness In Speech on Rights
Culture
After a decade-long hiatus, Will & Grace returned to television last week to completely embarrass itself by putting a political agenda ahead of decent writing. When it comes to the follow-up, the October 10 episode "Who's Your Daddy," all I can say is that it's not as bad.
New Magic School Bus: Use Clean Energy or Monsters Will Eat You
Culture
The Magic School Bus is back in the new Netflix series The Magic School Bus Rides Again! Overall, it's still a nice, fun 13-episode series like we remember from when we were kids, but with some left turns. There is a pretty predictable take on climate change propaganda for little kids, but that wasn't the worst. That dubious honor goes to the episode that teaches kids that a monster will eat them…

Right on cue for Columbus Day, the statue of Christopher Columbus in Columbus Circle in Manhattan is getting round-the-clock guards to ward off vandals, and USA Today’s Josh Hafner wants to know “As Confederate statues come down, what about Columbus?”
