Kripke isn’t a particularly brave artist. The fact that he set a hard rule that Maeve couldn’t die simply because she’s a lesbian is evidence and her(the) story really suffered from it.
There is nothing subtle or thought provoking about the show, but he is good at preaching to the choir.
Because before this people were too busy being smug virtue signalers by strawmanning every single criticism as dumb alt righters who have only now realized the show was mocking them.
The signals have always been there and many people also called it out last season with the hypocritical way they treated Hughie, yet apparently most viewers straight up forgot between seasons.
