#“the show is only about preserving social order and maintaining the nuclear family”#what did you think it was about? racial equality and its widespreadedness in the fucking 1800s?#bs.#my point is not that anything set in the past has to be brutally racist for it to be historically accurate but that doesn't mean you can #ignore that facet of society completely #im curious how do you consume media if you throw a tantrum whenever a character makes an ethically questionable decision?
