USA - The half of it that hates Donald Trump as much as you do.

Because you didn’t like a happy ending?
The idea that a person's comments, left in a public comment thread, are to be responded to only by people who agree with the OP, is another common delusion on MDL.
I didn't "insert myself into your comment," I replied to your publicly posted comment, as any member has the right to do.

Every single comment, eh? Really? All of them?

No one has thrown "dirt" at the series for no reason.
Every single negative comment has explicitly stated what the poster did not care for.

You're not open to criticism at all.
You're fangirling.

I'm here instead of watching the second half of episode 6, so... yeah 😂
I feel you.
I almost bailed twice during episode 6, but decided I'd stuck it out through five episodes so I might as well grit my teeth and finish it out.

It's still hard to believe they turned such a wonderful outcome into Dullsville.
I thought surely Tanrak leaving the church/school with Barth would be a crucial, emotional scene, but nope, that was passed over along with 27 other possibly gripping potential developments.

It felt as though all these important, dramatic signposts along their way were being revealed as casual afterthoughts.
It also felt like the director/writer was working out all his issues with the Catholic Church in a boring and repetitious way. How many hugs did Tanrak need to share with Father Hardon, anyway?

And it's highly unrealistic that the Father didn't cop a feel during either of those hugs.
This IS a Catholic priest, after all.

The fact that EVERY room is cream and blue with that ugly shiplap or whatever the fuck it is. It makes every room…
Well, aren't things other people did to our homes before we owned them part of its history?
Oh well, you don't have to admire the lap siding if you don't want to. :D
Meanwhile, we can agree that the home interior on NFTLR is hideous.

It's amusing reading you trying to justify your spoiler-spewing to passers-by.

Because you didn’t like a happy ending?
And you "know" everyone here who shared negative reactions well enough to say, "They just want to hate?"
Are you the one who gets to decide whether or not people are allowed to share negative reactions to a drama?

That's lovely that you related so intimately to this show, but guess what? Plenty of other people had problems with it and are not obliged to stifle themselves because you're insecure and consider opinions that differ from yours to be "hate."

I find your pointless hatred of other people's opinions ridiculous.
Just like everyone else here, they have every right to share their own thoughts and opinions.

This attitude that if someone loves a show, then everyone else is obligated to tip-toe around their delicate sensibilities and pretend they saw no problems with it also, is incredibly immature, but also incredibly prevalent on MDL.
Grow up.

omg...the father is so boring and dour.
And even here at the end, he has not offered genuine support to Tanrak, encouraging him to see who he is as a gift from God, just as he is and was created to be.

What I got from the last confessional scene was that his position is that being gay is a sin that needs to be repented of to gain God's forgiveness, which is bullshit and the reason so many gay Catholics live a life in the closet and are depressed, kill themselves, or do the sensible thing and get the hell out of that soul-murdering church.

He told Tanrak to "forgive" himself and my first thought was forgive himself of WHAT, exactly, you bastard?
Being what God made him?

Episode 1:
Wow, this is exceptional.
What a fascinating start.

There seem to be a lot of commenters here for whom this show/first episode went way over their heads.
Those people should probably not watch any further.

Love the JP weirdness.
Don't know why they cut away from the foot-licking, though.
If we're getting weird, how is licking a foot too much to show us?

Great acting from all concerned, especially Mullet Man.
What a wonderfully flexible face. When he broke into tears at the bar, I was transfixed by his facial expressions. Like rubber twisted into anguish.
Incredible.

This thing with always having to wait an entire week for one freaking episode is getting old.
What happened to releasing them all at once so I can binge-watch?

it went from 10/10 to 7/10 real quick
Me too, exactly.
It was awesome through 3, then downhill from there.
Climax was boring.

I too thought it might be a 10/10, but ended up rating it 7/10.

The ending was okay, not excellent as the other episodes but still good. I still have lots of questions but I…
Auntie Lek was the highlight of ep. 6 for me.
Other than that, they managed to make what should have been an awesome climax into a snore-fest.

Episode 6:
What a weirdly tedious, anti-climactic finale for what promised early on to be a sensational series.
Was anyone else here bored to tears most of the time during ep. 6?
I had to take a break and come back; otherwise I would have dropped out before the end.

For me, this series peaked with the bathhouse confession scene at the end of episode 3.
After that, it went into neutral and coasted through 4 and 5, then downshifted into reverse for episode 6.

The trans auntie and Barth's mom were the highlights of the last episode.

I got the ending I hoped for, but it felt like an afterthought.
Strange.

I had already put this drama on my Favorite BLs list, but it may drop off completely now.

7/10

The way your dumb ass leaves a cut-and-paste nonsense article as if it means something.The difference, obvious…
Go psychoanalyze someone who gives a shit what you think.

Nowhere have I devalued Palestinian lives.
Everything you said beyond the half-point of your comment above is conjecture and nothing more.
Quote one thing I've said that directly dehumanizes Palestinians.

The contrary is true, as I keep saying: It is Hamas that does not value its citizens' lives and sees them as "necessary sacrifices," as expendable as a used tissue.
Hamas knew that its 10/7/2023 operation would result in mass casualties among its people when Israel inevitably struck back.
It went ahead with it, anyway.
Hamas refuses to surrender and give up this battle it cannot win.
If it did that, the war would end immediately.
Palestinians in Gaza aren't real people to Hamas and YOU, sister, despite your sob-story BS above.

You can blab your fantasies about what I believe/think beyond what I've said in my own words, but doing so won't make your fantasies factual.

There is no genocide.
If Israel truly wanted to kill all Palestinians, it's doing a damn poor job of it, aren't they? In two and a half years of the war Hamas started, about 3.4% of Gazans have been killed, and that estimate includes Hamas fighters because Hamas likes to fudge the numbers higher by not differentiating between its fighters and civilians.

My point being that Israel could have killed 75% of Gazans by now if that were the aim. Instead, we're at 3.4%.
And that 3,4% would still be alive if not for Hamas's temper tantrum on 10/7/2023.
So zip it about "genocide."
Genocide is what was done to the Jews before and during World War II, when 67% of European Jews were slaughtered, and not just by the Nazis.

Do you even know any of this background information?
Do you even use your brain...like at all?

It is HAMAS that doesn't value Palestinian lives.
In the infamous words of Yahya Sinwar (did you even know who that is, before I'm about to tell you?), mastermind of Hamas's 10/7/2023 attack on Israel that killed/raped/burned 1,200 Israeli civilians, the deaths of Palestinian civilians, “infuse life into the veins of this nation, prompting it to rise to its glory and honor.” He also referred to civilian deaths as “necessary sacrifices” in the war against Israel, according to the Wall Street Journal.

THAT's how much your Hamas buddies value Palestinian lives: They are "NECESSARY SACRIFICES..."
And where have all those sacrifices gotten anyone, as Gaza lies in ruins?

Do some research and come back when you know what you're talking about.
