I’m saying people should watch a powerful series about state violence and masking with real world lessons that can be taken away. I’m unsure what you mean by how we shouldn’t re-enact fictional events. Are you talking about my suggestion? Or are you saying we should end acting? Or is it something g else?
Apologies. I may have come too strong possibly, because I do it myself sometimes by referencing shows as a means to convey relatable message to the audience. Lately, however, I started to think that the shorthand those references introduce may be more of a problem than not. I am not even familiar with the particular show you are referencing.
I think my concern was that we think too much in terms popular culture. That itself is a problem. Still, as problems go, it is not urgent. Hence my apology.
