>Confederate is an upcoming American television and alternate history drama series set in a timeline where the Confederacy won the American Civil War

What the fuck is this? That's so fucking stupid! Are you fucking serious? What wasted potential. I felt the same about Man in the High Castle. "hurr what if the nazis won" "hurr what if the russians won" "hurr what if the confederacy won"

Yes I'm mad.

Confederacy was one of the most evilest regimes in human history, on par with nazi Germany desu

The backlash is moronic, but desu I'm not that bothered about it getting cancelled. Alt-history is almost always fucking terrible, why couldn't they just do a good drama about the civil war with a focus on the confederates?

It's a shitty concept for a show. I can't even begin to think at how you'd make a whole show about a big what-if scenario and make it interesting to watch for hours on end.

I think they will go through with it because the tides are changing and the story can be more easily spun into 'artists being attacked by the public to release their vision' since ultraliberalism is beginning to lose its footing with public media.

The confederacy was unironically one of the worst Nation States to exist at the time. Almost half the population literally reduced to property.

The CSA constitution is one of most retarded documents ever devised well.

why is this show causing so much butthurt? isn't The Handmaiden's Tale essentially the same?

>>85700383
One, that's a nameless government, not the Confederacy.

Two, liberals are retarded and put on extreme edge due to Trump, so they feel they have to attack everything that could hurt the progressive agenda. Even if Confederacy was White Guilt: The Show, it'd be terrible because it meant at one point in history, the 'racists' won or something dumb.
>>
>>85698725
They'll go through with it and ride the controversy all the way to the bank.

/tv/ will bitch and moan, but create threads and discuss intently every episode while trying to have it both ways and saying the show is offensive and no one should watch that trash.

It's called the Republic of Gilead.

>>
>>85701546
But like I said, it doesn't matter if it has a prog agenda, liberals need to attack it because it's deemed a potential threat.

And Jews are weird. They pick and choose what to get offended by, while your average lefty/righty gets offended at anything.

This show will be straight up liberal propaganda and the same people that were outraged at the thought of it will eat it up and claim it's the best thing ever.

>only understandable for americans

What's there to understand. 1800s America had blacks still viewed as property instead of citizens. The south was heavily reliant on people as machinery and the north was taking advantage of the Industrial Revolution's modern inventions so they didn't need slavery. Lincoln and the Union fought to keep the country together and the Confederacy fought to become its own nation.

Did the Man in the High Castle show off Nazi technology far more advanced than current tech? Or is it just an inaccurate revenge tale?

The show takes place in the late 1960's but is technologically lagging by about 10-15 years. The only thing improving is rocket/space travel technology.

was. Just like you would do with movie about nazis for example.

Thousands of years later cue a fuckload of pampered overly-socialized queers moaning about how slavery is the worst thing ever. I guarantee when you're kneeling on the edge of a trench with your hands bound behind your back and a knife at your throat you'll be begging to be put to work instead.

The very concept of this show is a comically stereotypical farce. If anything the confederacy needs some romanticizing just to counterbalance the usual absurdly negative portrayals like the bullshit you're spouting.
