I see the anti Annes are concern trolling at how "sexist" bsr is and how they fear for "future generations" if this is their gateway drug. It's a danger to society people! Win for Boleyn.

It's arguably so in certain scenes, the two writers of the series, one being a woman, the other nonbinary, doesn't preclude it from sexism.

But I would also consider it concern-trolling, and hypocritical, since many of them seem to find Anne’s death hilarious...I do almost think they mock Anne’s fans just for being earnest, compassion is not in currency.

However, it does seem like, not all the historians, in the final edit, were in favor of, for example, the depiction of Mary Boleyn.

And it's surely infantile to cuss out one of the commentators for something they never said because you're upset that, in this series they contributed to, about their rival, the portrayal of your fave did not adequately kiss their ass to your exacting specifications.

#i mean they did this with TSF too...#they are mistaken if they think it is the norm in these documentaries for all the historians to collab / endorse every single comment of #the other...the interviews are filmed independently?#anon #'i don't like anne or henry because they were cruel to catherine'#this series: *anne and henry are cruel to catherine* them: omg choke and die for portraying this #like... what is it exactly that they WANT ahtrugfjfksj #as far as the depiction of jane... yes that story does not arrive until the 17th century. i don't think anne necessarily discovered #her on his lap. nor ripped off her locket.#however...she did by contemporary report say that she blamed her miscarriage on that 'it broke her heart that he loved others'#(they reitreate this in her 'testimonial': my heart was broken)#which suggests maybe an inciting incident/revelation of some kind? even if it did not play out like that persay #and if when she found out coincided with when she started to show a sign of miscarrying (bleeding etc)#then of course she would blame it on that.#of course she would say 'i lost the baby because of her'#of course if it did it was a coincidence. but of course that's how she would see it #or rather: how she would feel #our emotions are not always 'accurate'#or rational...hence them being emotions #like i just don't... lol. know #a lot of people that do not like to consider events from anne's perspective #watched a series from anne's perspective. and then were mad that it was.#honestly seems the crux of it #*towards/to/about catherine that is
