Re: controversial opinions thread

There is no getting around it, the Confederacy comes with a lot of cultural baggage whether you want it to or not. Whedon should have been more aware of that. If he'd been half the showrunner and writer he's been claimed to be then he would have been. Space Western after a Civil War, with the losers using the rural South's tropes was always going to run into that. He perhaps ought to have worked on that a bit more before going forward with it. Maybe dropped the Civil War angle, or made it clear that the losers in this case were the substitute for the North rather than the South. As it stands it comes across as just whitewashing away all the faults of the Confederacy in order to use the tropes as set dressing, and that is not okay. It wasn't okay in 2002 and it is less okay now.
