The show follows the general in charge of space force Steve Carell, as he balances his family life and establishing and maintaining US supremacy in space. Members of the United States military are only portrayed as diverse and good. The worst quality the show ascribes to the military is that they spend too much money. Only two things are portrayed as negative in the show, one is the chief of staff for Trump( who isn't shown), and of course China.
The Chinese attack America unprovoked on 2 seperate occasions in the show, one time using an advanced giant satellite (which doesn't exist), and another time using their secret mining moon base( which doesn't exist).
The space force is explicitly explained as being created as whim by Trump, when in reality it was voted into creation 377-48 by the Democratic party controlled house. Also it has a budget double that of the Chinese in reality, not the other way around.
Seriously folks it stinks.
Also nearly forgot the AOC stand in who is just an loud dumb angry young woman who is eventually rendered speechless by an incredible "America is good actually" speech by Carrel. Awful.
I think I stomached maybe 2 episodes before giving up. Between the bottom tier lib political humor (just real covefe hours all the time) and the blatant pro-military/anti-China political propoganda it was just crushing unfunny and infuriating.
Oh fuck I just remembered the whole Putin sleeper agent sub plot that made me want to yeet myself out a window. Oof.
