my favorite show is about this phenomenon of people who don't understand how to engage with media when the main character is a severely broken person with the ability to almost imitate a regular human and the story illustrates how their trauma and mechanisms for coping expand outward from them, negatively impacting the characters of their world creating more traumas and mechanisms, and on and on.

it starts off salient and then the fandom within the series turns against the fandom of the series, becoming a meta-textual analysis of media consumption as self-understanding and all critical analysis of the show becomes extremely polarizing to fans and hate-watchers alike.

at least, that's what i have gleaned from an argument i have been having with someone on the wikipedia talk page for the show. honestly, i have not seen a single episode of my favorite show.
