this could be in the unpopular opinion thread in the cinema, but let's see where this goes
i'll just say this, based on the things you've posted about your upbringing, I cant assume you had the same kind i had where my cousin and I had pretty much free reign to do anything we wanted to as long as we were in the house by a certain time. We got into all kinds of shit. Obviously, no monsters from an upside down world, but still, this is a strange criticism of the overall synopsis of the show, YET, you was just in here maybe a year or so ago talking about how great the x-files show was as you watched from season 1?
so you dont have any criticisms of that show, yet, the fact that children that live in a town in the 80s that dont experience racism or the fact they are allowed to do as they want with no real parental oversight is the thing that sets you over the top??
