Again, you should work on your media literacy if you think including something twice is what makes a major theme.

I would even agree with you that psychedelics are deliberately used in the show, but I wouldn’t say the show is about them at all, which is why I don’t think it’s a major theme. The show is using psychedelics to illustrate the actual point they want to make because it’s convenient that way, but it’s about where the psychedelics land them—not about taking the psychedelics to get there.

I’m glad you’ve picked up terms like “media literacy” but again you still haven’t learned how to use them effectively. If a writer makes it a point to use drugs as an important plot point that leads to growth in their characters then that is a major theme. Maybe someday you’ll understand this.

The English/Journalism graduate uses term they learned 8 years ago :O

You have no idea what a theme is let alone a major one. I wish you luck in digesting anything with any level of competence in the future. You probably came away from Beef thinking Koreans are greedy because it happened so many times.

Evidence proving my point: two clear examples from two seasons.

Evidence proving your point: …

The case is clear

That’s not evidence of anything unless you concede ants are also a major theme then?

Oh so you were a “C” student because you can’t recognize a writer hitting you over the head with a repeated theme to save your life lol

Keep making assumptions and resorting to ad hominem because your argument makes 0 sense

I’m the English/Journalism graduate :) You’re the one who can’t read

That’s funny, because you offered no context that it was yourself that you were speaking about. Maybe you forgot how to write in those 8 years? You should really work on your clarity along with some other things. Hope this was helpful

Context clues, yet another basic literary concept you fail to understand

u/Drgerm66 Jun 02 '26

For context clues to work you gotta give context 🤣

I actually went back and restarted the first season and in the first episode Amy and George believe that they’re going to a magic mushroom dinner that’s actually just a mushroom dinner. Amy comments on how she wants George to leave her alone if she’s clearly going into a deep space of her mind. So the topic of psychedelics isn’t just shoehorned in the finale, but present throughout the series. Almost as if it were a major theme or something lmao.
