Started watching Historical Roasts on Netflix last night. I should have known better than to watch a Netflix Original and not expect liberal propaganda, but I was blown away by how blatant it was, to the point where I'm convinced the show only exists for propaganda purposes and only selected its historical figures based on what liberal talking points it could attach to them.
Episode 1, Abe Lincoln. Takes a few jabs at Trump and encourages the viewers to vote against him next election, then sassy Harriet Tubman comes on stage to remind everyone how she was the real hero and just spoke about herself like the writers forgot or didn't care that this was supposed to be "a roast of Abe Lincoln."
Episode 2, Freddie Mercury. Starts out much funnier than the Abe Lincoln episode, but towards the end it becomes clear that they chose Freddie to push an LGBTQ message and the last quarter of the roast turns into just telling the audience to be gay and embrace promiscuous sex, have no kids, and avoid any sort of stability or responsibility to instead "do whatever makes you happy"
Episode 3 was Anne Frank, and I had to stop the episode at the very beginning because he ended his intro by mentioning that "many genocides are happening today, like the denial of refugees and asylum seekers who just want a better life." After hearing him compare immigration laws to the holocaust, I was done with the show.
This morning I looked up who the other episodes are about. Martin Luther King Jr, Cleopatra, and Muhammed Ali. I can guess what MLK and Muhammed Ali's roasts highlight, but I was curious about Cleopatra, so I opened that episode just to check.
Less than a minute in, Jeff Ross starts saying "the history books don't talk enough about the many strong, powerful women" and I turned the show off again.
I thought it would be something like Epic Rap Battles of History in roast form, but it was just liberal brainwashing.
