Haha, I addressed some of his points about Mad Men earlier. The all white men veterans are rapists and gay in the show thing was odd, too. How many rapists are there? And wasn't Sal the only closeted gay guy? I think it's fairly historically accurate--there were gay artists in the 1960s
It does get ham-handed occasionally, but Mad Men is an amazing show. I'd be super proud if i wrote it.
Greg raping Joan is the only rape in the series. There are a few gay characters. Sal and Bob Benson are both closeted. Sal gets fired after he rejects Lee Garner Jr.'s advances. Bob Benson comes on to Pete and gets rejected. There are only two minor characters who are openly gay. The lesbian chick who kisses Peggy for the shock value and some shitskin who was only in a couple scenes. As far as the black characters go, dozens show up at the office looking for jobs and they hire two. Both women, both become secretaries. One of them starts as a secretary/receptionist but they immediately decide they don't want a black in such a prominent position so they move her to be Lou Avery's secretary. The other one is Don's secretary. The other employees constantly get the two of them confused and refer to them by the other's name.
Dumb fuck you're responding to is too stupid to comprehend the shows he watches so he fills in the blanks with a bunch of lies and insane exaggerations so he can go around trying to pander about how woke the shows are.
Mad Men is about as not-woke as it gets. Roger Sterling sings in fucking blackface in one of the episodes. Some streaming services remove that scene and others put a warning before the episode. @LingerLonger is legitimately fucking retarded.
