The drama contains a lot of propositions, the homosexual line is the most popular, and the family line is the most tearful. But this show should be a metaphor for all minorities, not just gays.
A lot of the second season is about their self-identification, about the dignity of life.
In fact, the first season is more about the survival of minority groups, after all, life must exist first.
For example, the setting of PSV can be said to discuss the rights of mentally ill patients, and it is also like discussing the return of prisoners to society.
Social psychology has mentioned that the very basic human thinking is differentiation and labeling, what is me and what is not, whether it is an enemy or a friend. This show couldn't be more obvious.
So if there is a first theme, I think it is actually "hate", the politics of the art of correctly handling hatred, but we still don't know how to eliminate hatred.
Humans are just outcasts of the universe, and they have created too much hatred because of fear in the long process of growing up.
Hatred and attraction have two sides, so Rick is the most tragic character in the first season. He is a weapon of war and a victim of war. He is a person who is loved by everyone, but also a victim of hatred.
So his departure is enough to make people heartbroken and sigh, and in contrast, our little cute hero's departure and return is more hopeful.
Civilization progresses and survival improves. When we have no worries and fears, perhaps we can better understand the existence of life and eliminate those hatreds that are not necessary, or hatred that is no longer needed.
