Peggy ah Peggy..

Peggy is probably one of the cores of Fargo's entire show.
One of the biggest features of this season is undoubtedly a super strong sense of the times. You can hear your views on World War II and the Vietnam War at any time. You can buy a butcher shop for $500. The operation of gangs has changed from fighting to killing. Office and Accounting Department.
And Peggy's location reflects this era, when girls begin to gradually understand themselves and awaken their inner sense of sovereignty. It is true that everyone will hate this girl very much after watching this drama. This is a normal thing, because she is such a brainless existence. In the play, she shows that she has a low level of education (in this regard, the butcher's education level is not much different), so she often makes some brainless decisions, so she is so vulnerable to brainwashing by cult MLM organizations. This is normal, who likes silly old people who do wrong? But Peggy also reflects the trend of thinking of women in the new era. Of course, I am not a girl, and I am not an expert in this regard. I just think about this issue from the perspective of a girl.
First of all, it has been shown many times in the play that Peggy wants to leave this town, wants to go to California, and has read a lot of travel magazines. The butcher, on the other hand, thinks we should live in this small town, and everything is worth buying a butcher's shop. To put it bluntly, there are very big differences between the two of them in certain values. Does the butcher have to be right? Does Peggy's idea have to be wrong? In other words, why should I stay in this small town when I'm only 29 years old? The world is so big, why don't you want to see it?
Secondly, most of the people in this drama are men, and what they show is that there is no need to discuss with girls when making various decisions, and I will take care of all kinds of things, so well, it is reflected in the whole era That is, boys always feel that they are dealing with "big things", so all "little things" other than "big things" should be done well by girls, so there is the super classic dialogue between Peggy and the police brother in the police car in the last episode. Every word that Peggy said in the car in the last episode is very, very worthwhile to think about and makes sense.. In fact, I feel that the director is guiding the audience to think (unfortunately, most people ignore it).
Peggy first said I wanted to choose, be my own me, not to be defined by someone else's expec--meaning I wanted to have the opportunity to choose to be the kind of person I want to be, and not want to be or Defined as what people expect to look like. This is very reasonable. The first half of the sentence is a point of view that we have been complaining about since childhood. From childhood to adulthood, we have been instilled in good grades to have a future, and obedient children have a future. Don't you want to have the opportunity to choose? ? Maybe I'm not so fond of learning what school teaches, maybe I'd rather play football? And the second half of the sentence reflects a social phenomenon now. Good grades = promising future, money = success, and nothing else. Everyone's expectation is that you can only be successful if you have money.
Then Peggy scolded the third child, Soferson asked "You mean the victim", Peggy said "No. That's not fair. I'm a victim too. I'm a victim before him." Soferson was slightly dissatisfied Say "victim of what". At this time, the content of the exchange between the two has actually changed. Soferson's thinking still remains that the third child was killed, so he is a victim, and Peggy's thinking has jumped to how as a woman is persecuted in this era. What Peggy said is actually very reasonable. The background of the times requires girls to be good wives (let their husbands x), be good mothers (have children, cook), and be self-reliant workplace women (work to earn money) responsibilities, like there's 37 hours in a day, and then, when you can't, they say it's you,"You're faulty," like you're inferior somehow. Something goes wrong, as if you, as a woman, should be inferior), and Soferson simply chooses to end the conversation.
I think this is the essence of Peggy in this show. The women who are represented are slowly awakening. It is true that women may be deceived for one reason or another in the early stage, but at least they have started to think and learn to fight for themselves. , which is success.

Of course, up to now, it seems that boys in some areas are gradually becoming lower. When traveling, you should accompany us more. Don't just focus on work or play games, you should...) In short, gender balance is quite difficult..
