jesus christ midge outs a gay black man on stage, in his hometown harlem stage, doing her "comedy act" and as a result of this blatant breach of trust and contract, she's dropped from being the opener for his tour bc of course she was its incredibly out of line to do that. instead of ruminating on her actions, she has the audacity to open s4 with this:

the taylor swift white woman energy i swear.. this show is written thru such a narrow white feminist lens it's appalling.

#mrs maisel #and the show wants me to be sympathetic towards her!!!#it did everything it could in s3 to villianize shy baldwin as this black singer high maintenance diva #when midge is NO LESS A FUCKING HIGH MAINTAINANCE DIVA HERSELF.#the only woman midge befriends on tour in shy baldwin's very black musical crew?? the only white woman 🙄#like... the depiction of this show's chinese folks too is.. VERY caricature.#like the hypocrisy of the writing is in every page. midge does something fucked up?? 'oh ur overreacting! it's cute!'#meanwhile someone slightly does not laugh at one of midge's jokes?? midge throws a goddamn diva tantrum #ughh. this show nEEDS to understand that ur protagonist being stagnant #all the time. is no fucking story. yall going in circles bc ur too scared to let midge fuck up #and suffer the consequences of the fuckup.#yall just worship her too much to let her be a PERSON in this story #it reads like a 15yos self-insert fic. yall obsessed w keeping midge 'perfect' all the time.#about to watch what an absolute shitshow s4 is about to be huh.
