I don’t think it’s gloating or forgiveness.
I think it’s an uncomfortable truth thrown into our face, for all the outrage(justified), for all of the think-pieces, for all of the conversations White people never truly have to change for the better because they simply don’t have to. The entire point of the Cancel Club seems to be that no one there took responsibility for their actions, they just found others that also lack accountability, and found comfort in each other’s company. Rather than confront themselves head on they chose to double down, something White people do all the damn time.

Exactly. Hit the nail right on the head. Which is why I don’t know how to take Liam agreeing to do the role. I’m inclined not to take anything from it all when considering Liam the person. He could have been trying to say something or he could have just been playing a role.

But what the Glovers are saying is fax.

I have no idea why people are saying this feels like a different show. This is the series that in its FIRST SEASON introduced a Cult leader who force feeds his followers Nutella sandwhiches, an invisible car, a man who undergoes “transracial” surgery to go from black to white, the rap group Migos as drug traffickers, a Samurai sword that can be traded up for a canine that’s worth $5000, and a BLACK JUSTIN BIEBER.


The show has always leaned into the weird and ethereal. Its NEVER, not ONCE in its history, been a straight forward narrative about just one thing. Its got a premise that Donald Glover has said since the beginning was to showcase “What It Means To Be Black”. This series in its third season is EXACTLY what its always been. Precisely what Donald said it was.
I agree completely

I often wonder if people who watch this show and like it, actually get it.

They had an invisible car in the first season and it ran over people.

We met Teddy Parkins.

This show always been like this.

The scene where the white woman has the naija bowl street shop is the only realistic setting in London.

This season is weird with the racial things , they wasted a lot of potential this season
