I started watching episode one of the new Wheel of Time series. Near the start there is this "Planet of the Apes" sequence where a bunch of Amazon women on horses ride down and kill two men who beg for their lives before being executed. The woman who kills them with some mysterious magic power tells them they don't deserve to have power, that power belongs only to women.

Then we see a dozen or more women together, moving around and talking, and I notice, there are no men and no children. Not one kid.

It was then that I stopped watching.

What are the messages this series is sending children who may view it?

  • Men are evil.
  • Men are weak.
  • Men don't deserve mercy or compassion.
  • Women don't need men.
  • Women don't need children
  • Women don't need marriage.
  • Woman don't need families.
  • Women are the natural leaders of humanity.
  • Women should be running everything.
  • Woman are superior to men.
  • Men can't be trusted because when they had power, they fucked up the world.

And that was only in the first ten minutes or so of the first episode of this series. I mean, holy shit, how does anyone expect a child growing up with this, alongside XXX pornography and Ritalin, to have a healthy attitude toward getting married or raising a family? And people wonder why the numbers of whites are dropping. It isn't entirely low sperm counts, although that undoubtedly plays a part (and may have been engineered). This series is social poison, social cyanide.

And this is all we see coming out of Hollywood these days. It's all absolutely destructive social and cultural poison.

Understood. But many of the direct issues he pointed out. Are things that are very present in the books.

They all already start out too old. Egwaine does get her hair into a braid on bel tine day... the day the first episode is set.

Aes Sedai - dont go to pl;aces and say who they are... they are largely untrusted and misunderstood by the general population. She arrives in the village with Lan, under the names of Alice and Andra. Just travellers looking for old stories. She discovers Teveran after arrival, not before... soe of that is pretty minor, and can be glossed over for the need to condense a 30 hour read of book one, into a few hours of TV. A bunch of the stuff in those 9 chapters that are before the start, are needed for the story. I dont know how or if they intend to work them in.

I am not saying, they arent laying a bunch of bullshit into it also. Hell Egwaine is a fuckin abo... When the dark people are the seafolk and the tairens. The Aiel are listed as deeply tanned, but from sun. So Rand could be done well as a tall white guy.

Perrin is fucked from the start. He wasnt married at that point. And not to some fuckin abo. He marries something closer to a chink (well as closely as decribed - high slanted almond eyes with high cheek bones) I want to say in book 4 but it could be 3. They introduce to her father / mother for the first time in book 6. His family needs to die... mother father brother and sisters... he needs to rail about his 9 year old brother not a dead wife... I dont know how they would reconcile that... its way outside of the books.

So far. with only a few minutes watched. I was pretty disappointed.

Now i have to go see the rest of the episode to see how much worse it gets.

Considering how many times I have read this series. I should have been so eager for the release of this that i watched it 3 or 4 times already. I watched 15 mins and walked away.
