It is a “political” show in that it explores what authoritarian governments can be like, in a way that isn’t just applicable to a 1930s German political party. It can also be broadly applied to anyone who abuses power, and to the Foucault-like nature of modern life structured around disciplinary institutions and prisons. This is why it’s widely appreciated and not seen as “political” in the sense of being propaganda purely aimed at people living in the 2020s. Whether centered around Orange Man or any other issues.
However like I said before there is an exception to this now, with the illegal undocumented immigrants parts. For me it has a pass for now but that’s strike one.
