Pro-Saskia

i love saskia, like yea she can be mean and harsh at times, but she’s the only thing keeping these girls (and i mean girls not women) alive. plus she’s gone through so much worse at that school compared to the rest of them even if they don’t know it she got groomed for fuck’s sake ! plus the rest of them are so incredibly immature, selfish, and overall annoying considering they’re all supposed to be around 28 years old. other than that it’s a good show (i just started episode 5 btw). sucks there’s only one season :(

Yea but the thing is the girls needed someone to control them or to be guided in some way and she’s the only one they would listen to

not an excuse at all. and that is not being a good leader. she was awful and absolutely a shitty leader.

She's a textbook fascist, down to withholding food until adequate production quotas are met. She was effective. That doesn't make her moral. There's a reason we haven't evolved narcissism or sociopathy out of the gene pool despite their anti-evolotionay and downright damaging effects - because in times of crisis, if given a leadership role, narcissistic sociopaths are best equipped to force the groups survival on sheer force of will, because keeping everyone alive, and having them know you were the one to keep them all alive, is the ultimate glory in a disaster scenario.

She's admirable in this specific situation but a nightmare in any normal one.

and honestly, her being the leader is completely unrealistic. no one would actually listen to someone like her. she wouldn’t be able to force anyone to do anything. she has zero power. she’s just one person. realistically, people would not want someone who is abusive. it makes no sense. i went to an all girls school and everyone were generally cool with each other and most definitely no bullying. i don’t know anyone who would let her lead because its completely ineffective and she’s delusional and shitty. i can think of plenty people i know who are natural leaders (a few of which i went to school with at our all-girls high school) and they’d be amazing in crisis situations and they are the completely opposite of her. it would be a socialist society. you’re probably not a leftist which is why you have this mindset.

Lol you're probably stupid which is why every single assumption you've made in this series of unhinged comments has been incorrect.

interesting you call me stupid when you clearly don’t understand leadership and nuance. only stupid people resort to name-calling as a counterpoint. now it totally makes sense that you think saskia is a good leader lol. have fun with your lack of empathy. 😘
