in the subreddits for The Bear and for Industry, the most hated characters are the top black female characters, even though as written they don’t stand out as any worse than other characters, imho. the reasons for the intense dislike are never stated as having anything to do with race, but the negging is constant & lengthy & to me never seems to make sense per the actual scripts & show context. mentioning this observation brings heated & accusatory responses.
i am white, which fact i note only to hopefully offset any “why so sensitive” reactions. \
thoughts?
