Same I loved that, it was like the white people get the complicated weird relationship and we get wholesome (not that I want revenge or anything, it was just something I noticed)

Yesss all they black people were good.

finally not the "girlllllll bye" character or the black kid that's trying to b a rapper, it's so refreshing and that's what i love about this show

@@rosem4ry610 YESSSS!! it was so refreshing to see

completely. the fact that they made characters who were just characters independent from their colour was refreshing. no stereotypes or tropes and they still managed to keep the heritage and culture intact. props to the writers.

That girl, Anna, in Joey’s friend group was an ass.

@@apa.3400 yeah your right she didn’t even believe Joey

@@Jenna-hk8db to be fair, her brother was in the car and she probably would have never thought her friends could do something like that (even tho it was clear George and Luke were pigs) But as a girl, she didn't believe Joey which sucks.

I liked Rachel, Leila’s friend. She called her out on her bullshit.

I said the SAME THING.

@@lovedogfm Yeah that's true. She's very naive and she tries sooo hard to be liked.

definitely

Meeee tooooo. She was a pick me

@@lovedogfm Same here. Even after all the fucked up shit she did I couldn't hate her because I know that her behaviour is caused by trauma. She clearly has struggled with her identity her whole life and has had experiences others can't relate to. That being said, she needs to fix up before she causes some real harm. She could easily become VERY destructive to many people.

She was giving me Capricorn rising.

shes very much mature i luv dom sm

Girl I cried at that part

I feel the same. She had me in the first half ngl

Right like she went down the wrong road

Exactly

As someone who was a freshman a couple months before the show was on : I personally felt bad but mostly angry at her because of the validation she felt she needed, but I also don't really try to intentionally judge her because I've been told many times that I'm crazy independent and like a wall that can't be broken by people and kind of a social outcast thats still social so I can see why I don't need their validation, but others can't. I also feel bad for her because before Covid-19, when I was a freshman I saw it happen with many girls needing validation from guys and it's really disheartening that this is a reality.

Trueee, she was so relatable at first and insecure, and that was okay until she started taking it out on the others and hurting others because of it

Yesss girls are like this

yes omg

It was incredibly disappointing because her art was so great

@@compaq2618 pick me girls*

She played that scene so well! It was AMAZING. She had to remember so many lines all in once and hit every emotion at every phrase. Even the crying was phenomenal. Obviously not something oscar nominating but it's the fact that she portrayed a real emotion probably lots of others go through and how her character would.

YES EXACTLY WHAT I SAID!! I’m tired of those stereotypical Black roles! The Black boys loving and performing music instead of drugs/trouble was just so beautiful to finally see

and the fact that one of the main characters was a black boy in a nuclear family that’s was doing well... AND HE WAS INTERESTED IN MUSIC THAT WASN’T ONLY HIPHOP!

@@fantadior3125 right 😭😭

Why Skins though? Jal Fazer was none of those stereotypical things. In fact, that's one of the reasons I loved Skins when I first watched it.

@@davidb5205 wasn't she only there for two seasons hiding a pregnancy and really had no other arch than being Chris gf and also Skins has a predominantly white cast definitely not as much diversity as this. Degrassi is similar to me too they did Hazel dirty.

mmhmmmm tf?

that's white feminism for you

FRR joey would laugh along and say "OMG THAT'S SO RACIST STOPPP🤪🤪" and never actually call the men out for all the fucked up shit they said. not to mention they were homophobic and called sid names like punjab and new dehli??? like I am a south asian, bisexual woman myself and those micro aggressions from luke, tim, and George that joey never called out stood out to me

@niya it does tho- didn’t you hear them say how the boys be homophobic and racist -

@niya How does it not have to do with race? White feminism refers to white women who speak over or ignore the voices/interests of women of color. Joey is a white woman excusing racism and homophobia while still calling herself a feminist. That's white feminism.

ACT-IIIIING

That's when you know she's doing her job right.

RIGHT

Do people actually hate the actress? That's laughable😂 it's a testament to her acting and the writing

I hate Leila so much that she makes me forget she is just character.

Yes!! one thing i loved was how when they texted it wasn’t like an old man talking. they actually had real previous conversations in the phones too

yesss the new york lingo/aave and the texts were perfectly depicted!!!

Fr imo this show and Never Have I Ever have like the most accurate teens. Maybe it's just me, but when I was in high school (I graduated in 2019) most kids I knew cared more about getting into all city band, or studying for APUSH, or like going to Model UN conferences; not smoking "jingle jangle" or whatever the heck those riverdale kids up to. Also, these kids are actually doing their homework and not getting into Harvard for no damn reason! (I'm looking at you kissing booth👀)

@@christicat221b yesss i love never have i ever

plus the way they look, they look like actual teens not a bunch of 25 year olds posing as teenagers like riverdale or smth

Right! And then she wants to get mad at Joey and blame her for lying as if Joey had not be going through emotional suffering the whole entire week. Connect the dots!

PERIOD

I think Anna definitely noticed but didn't want to accept what she was seeing so she willfully ignored it.

@@theladynim2 i agree, she was in utter denial in the episode where tim admitted what he saw, when they all met at that park

Anna DID notice, after Joey had the panic attack in the auditorium they went to the nurses office and saw the bald patches Joey had in her scalp from pulling her hair.

I disagree. she didn't do enough after the fact.

@@alleniversonisabeast I know. The entire time i was screaming Save them if you feel bad.

i absolutely love your point of view

THIS IS THE EPITOME OF BEING AN ALDUT

Omg I loved that 😂😂. If that was intentional the writers definitely made their point 👌🏾.

YES! OMG, I saw that! Literally amazing! So true! It emphasizes the stark difference between white feminism and black feminism. I really appreciate that frame/scene because as a black woman I can't be freeing the nipple all willy nilly, there are so many other issues that I have to worry about, like NOT DYING over nonsense matters. That was a really illustration of the difference between the feminism movement. Also, i was under the impression that maybe Dom wrote that.

I want to just mention how much i loved the depiction of social media in this show. It's hella realistic especially the comments under IG posts, such as the one u mentioned. Unfortunately free the nipple doesn't apply to black girls and woman and other poc bc of racial based fetishism. They won't get celebrated for their bravery like Joey, they will only get slutshamed due to society sexualising their bodies and that's why we should stop spreading awareness for feminism from white woman's pov! I don't wanna sound like I know everything as first, I'm not black but a middle eastern hijabi and second English isn't my native language, so if there's sth that's even slightly offensive in my post, pls tell me.

@@girlmagic8370 you're english is perfect and i completely agree. As black women there are more serious matters to worry about than freeing the nipple

She was the only character that was worth watching it for in my opinion!

That’s dead how nyc taxi drivers be too it’s a real thing in our society that needs to change

Right I was so mad at him. Idc if joeys’s “friends” thought he was a terrorist it bothered me how he did nothing at all Edit:He was so irrelevant in that sence that for a hit second I forgot he was even in the cab

He minded his P’s and Q’s

Facts. The LEAST he could have done was give a witness statement but nooo. It was sickening to see 😪Instead it was Joey’s word against 3. (Tim changed his mind in the end. Little late though🙄)

@Taylor R'stephens I don't believe that's entirely true. Joey was so loud and was radiating such loose energy in the cab, that in some parts I almost forgot if she is actually enjoying or is just too hammered. Either way, the two boys should be locked away because it was just a vile and disgusting behaviour, but joey was throwing herself at them, like riding them, hooking up with them and stuff which I feel like led to that. Also, I could see how her character changed as she couldn't let the boys touch her but still hung out with them, she was traumatized for shit. Tim, I don't think it was his fault, he was literally telling her to stop and he didn't want to see that shit.

Really the teacher really didn't allow dom to get her wallet it pissed me off

Low key, like she allowed George treat girls like shit and Tim as well but as long as it wasn’t happening to her she turned a blind eye so I felt like it was just backwards

mmm i think that's more white feminism

yes!!!! George did what alot of pick me guys do. He used feminism as a way to get close to women in spaces that they should feel safe. He used feminism to earn the trust if women, just to defile and break said built trust. It's heartbreaking to see.

Because like lots of teens and adults due to the hate and abuse and the STRENGTH it takes to come out- means people may be in denial.

"Remind me to never get into a cab with you two" I think it was something like that

YES I was so proud of sid in that scene too. King behavior

yea the fact that I’m not fluent in my parents’ native language hurts bc I’ve rejected it in my younger life to fit in and now my culture became a big part of me, yet I can’t fully embrace it along w the fact that my parents don’t teach my sibling and I about it

I relate to this disconnect so hard, I’m Black and Filipino as well, and not being able to properly communicate with an entire half of my family is really frustrating, I know bits here and there but I’m really hoping to learn Tagalog and be fluent in it by adulthood

My parents were born in the Caribbean islands and they refused to teach us creole bec. they wanted us to be 100% French. They didnt realise that French people will ALWAYS ask us what our "origin", while assuming White foreigners have been here since 10 generations. They will ALWAYS see us as Black women, not French women. I also hated feeling completely disconnected from my uncles, aunts and cousins when I visited the islands. Apparently, it's enough of a widespread issue that there are some Creole classes one can pay for.

Oops!

“And it’s everything when you don’t have it”😬🎯

I had to do a double take when I heard them speaking creole. I thought it was my sister and mother talking until I realized it was from the show! And you’re right about the relatability. I hardly ever see Haiti or people from Haiti shown in a good way in media.

she was my fav immediately just off the strength of her being Haitian i swearrrrr

Gosh the Créole confused the hell out of me lol. My main language is French and it's so similar sometimes and then I'm like "uh wut?"

Yeah, he could go on and live a better life to honor Owen, but he chooses to fight for a better life for both of them, and I thought it was such a powerful moment. Pitting black boys against each other for opportunities to thrive is way too common, and i'm glad this show chose to have Jay remain hopeful and loyal to Owen.

@@liswane This. I felt like their music teacher was doing exactly that. Pitting them against each other. I'm glad Jay decided to fight with the community instead of upholding the "Talented Tenth" culture.

@@NationPam7 yeah, i loved that final scene in his audition, it really hits when the camera is on his granpa and he looks so proud of jay.

I see your point and mostly agree with you but I also think that Jay was so striken by guilt he would not have been able to perform well or he would not have forgive himself after the performance , evzn though at the end Owen encouraged him, he also said he wished jay called the whole thing off before, which I think also had a hand in Jay's decision

@@edvdylanfan what-

Lelia was the most misunderstood character in that whole show.

@@user-us7py1cy2k speak on it. we are so quick to hate on her and i’m ngl i did too but we all have to understand that she is a freshman. she is trying to find herself and fit in. she doesn’t feel like she’s good enough for her chinese mates or her other friends. she’s simply lost.

Lelia was a bad friend and she was jealous but what made her any different from Joey in the beginning of the season. They both felt like they would be appreciated the “male gaze” at the expense of the things that they cared about. To Lelia it was her only friend and to Joey it was her feminism. Lelia wanted the male attention the Joey was getting because she thought it would help her with her social anxiety and identity issues. Joey enjoyed the attention she got from her guy friends even at the cost of her own “feminism.” Joey has some problems with her dad and it shows in the way she interacts with guys because she doesn’t feel appreciated when she’s with her dad even with her political views. Lelia didn’t even know what actually happened to Joey until later on in the show. And she distances herself from that guy then on. Her and Joey had the same character. But that bomb threat didn’t make sense to me at all with Lelias character. Joey didn’t not deserve what happened to her because in no way did she consent to anything those guys did. People are looking at this show from such a white privileged perspective that you miss the whole point of the shows existence in the first place

She was the most interesting character I feel we’ve seen in a while. Yeah the character was a bad person but she was written with so much nuance and the reasons for her behavior were very obvious. And that actress is going places!!!!!

Same tbh

At first I believed she was really just trying to help. But telling the teacher was off! It would've been an instant regret for me.

i feel this was a conscious decision on the writers part, whereas some shows just write a character like this and think theres no problem

Joey was a performative activist

Lelia obviously had some anxiety issues and could tell she was very much socially awkward. She never really interacted with anyone besides her one Jewish family friend that she knew for a long time. Her first day she got a condom thrown at her and a bomb threat. You can’t blame her for being a pick me girl when Joey was one as well. Even look at the way she was trying to apologize.

The Indian guy was literally struggling the whole show. The guy isn’t even Muslim but ignorant people in America are still going to see him as a terrorist and someone who isn’t to be trusted. His immigrant parents are like many other immigrant parents who tell their kids to worry and about school and ignore racism. Because that’s what they had to do to succeed in America. He’s apart of the lgbtq community and couldn’t tell his parents because they were hom*phobic and while having a gf. This man was doing all of this while maintaining straight A’s, doing sports and writing college essays. While all the white characters were worried about traveling to a different country because their very affluent parents could afford to send them anywhere that they wanted even with their low test scores

@@edgytypebeat781 Lelia was a bad friend and she was jealous but what made her any different from Joey in the beginning of the season.

Her dad doesn’t even value her political stance. Joey was the cool girl that Lelia wanted to be. Lelia didn’t even know what actually happened to Joey until later on in the show. And she distances herself from that guy from then on. I feel like we need to look at why the characters are they way they are instead of saying their just bad. Both Joey and especially Lelia were going through problems during that whole show.

@@edgytypebeat781 You could tell that she enjoyed the attention she got from her bf male friends better she would constantly put in this fake feminism act when it was around other people but when she was around those specific group of “male friends” she wouldn’t tell them that the things they were doing weren’t right. She was the exact trope of the cool girl. She was holding herself back when she continued to hangout with those guys. If that scene in episode 3 didn’t happen do you still think she was going to change. It was to show that the cool girl had feeling and emotions that shouldn’t be ignored. That scene showed how being the cool girl isn’t what everyone thinks it to be. Nobody cared about Joeys feelings. In NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM am I saying she deserved what happened to her because she did not consent to any of those boys.

The whole creation of the show is performative activism. The show runner fired 3 POC writers for giving her tips on how to write black characters.

SAME but I’m ready for next season!!

anonymous otter her ass is grass next season lmao

What did she do

righttt he was obviously trying to help

Haha my friend is like this, very generous. I think it's if you grow up without money in a unstable family vs. if you grow up in a financialy secure household. You can't see how it leads to the person feeling indebted, and why people don't want to feel that way towards friends.

She was the worst charcater along with Lea and the two white boys with Joe

shes only fourteen and sending bomb threats whew...

i agree, thats what made her such an interesting character to watch. I could pin point her to so many people i know in real life its crazy.

I agree. I like her because of how interesting she is. She's a terrible person I can agree. But do like her character

She needs serious counselling. She's very toxic but is still so young there is hope for her

i wanted someone to *thoroughly* scream at her so bad abt all her trash decisions and selfish behaviors but maybe season 2 will bless me with that 🙃

😂

we eatin good tonight

Eat uppppp

Ate good with my keto pizza 🍕😋

And my mind is receiving it 🙇🏾‍♀️

Oh damn... it was hard for me aswell even tho I’m not a survivor but I’m only 14 and idk I never seen things like this honestly it made me cry I had to skip the parts

I’m Dominican as well and I agree!

Same here!

Facts, Dominican culture and Haitian culture are very similar in that way. During her whole story line I related so hard to her and her family because I see it in my family and the families of Caribbean friends and peers around me. It's as if Dom was living my life but in Creole!

yess for sure !!

yea I feel like her parents influenced that on her.

i feel the same way, like yeah her feminism wasn’t perfect, but she was trying and i feel like ppl forget she’s 17, most people barely know what they’re doing at that age

Righttttt

Same!

Totally agree with you. This is shows Jays transition from a conformer to a revolutionary

But wasn't it literally a performance? Like the whole point is to perform? That's like an actor taking a role in a movie but not acting because 'They know they can act'

@@simplyawful543 It doesn't matter. The incarceration of his people is a heavier subject than playing the saxophone at a highschool concert

very much so

but the development of her story arc is just wow

@@loona6166 but why couldn’t her development come from herself and not from trauma?

@@glodymadiamba6064 there many different ways someone can realise what they did was wrong, tho truama is not always how it goes.. it happens, i would have perferred if they did not choose that route but the way they explored how the trauma affected her life in every way possible is honestly remarkable, they didn't try to gloryfiy it or anything it all seemed so hard to watch (for me personally)

@@glodymadiamba6064 i think it showed a good variety of development causes, for joeys example it was her trauma as well as some other characters, but with dom they developed her through herself. i liked that

PREACH KWEEN 🙌🙌

@Uviwe nope. She did. Best character, PERIODT.

i loved her sm

She really did!

Not really but she is a likable character

tackling***

Wow I love this perspective

Yeah, I was caught with weed in senior year but because it was a rampant problem in my school, they made an example out of me and didnt let me attend graduation or prom. Mind others were being caught too even after I was punished yet I was the only one with these stipulations.

YES HIS HINDI SUCKED SO MUCH

Islamaphobia exsist in every non islamic countries.

I hate how people can't differentiate between Hinduism and Islam, not every south Asian is a muslim. Plus his parents say his name "Siddhart" like???? Connect the dots

@@aiswaryabersan7983 what's your point?

I think that was intentional though, is probable that Sid's parents came in the US around 20 or 30 years ago, with time one could lose the affinity that they have previously with one language. And unlike Dom's family i think Sid's parents never wanted to teach to their children Hindu because they want to appear as good American citizens, to have their kids more Americanized then them.
