I can't suspend my disbelief this much.

>>87548185

well the only thing that would be worse would be harping on race relations, so nice-washing the past is probably preferable to the rest.

If you don't want to deal with race relations of the past, then don't tell stories about the past.

>>87548185
Because black people are invisible or some shit like that.

>>87548358
This. Nobody in the 50's is going to think the goofy black guy is spying on them.

>>87548358
Wait, what are black people?

No one is going to think a black person would even bother to get near a white diner unless hes a busboy. Iean you can be diverse all you want but fucking be historically accurate. You don't have to use the worse racial slurs but people were commonly called negro or coloured and weren't treated well.

That's not what they did, though. The show pretty much implied that the racists living in suburban 50's America were as bad as the immortal mass-murdering tyrant hiding in their midst.

>>87548185
How are you going to show how awful and racist white people were in the 50s if you keep the black characters away from them?

>>87548873
That about sums it up.
