Netflix’s “Adolescence” perpetuates leftist tropes

Netflix’s new series “Adolescence” has raised some eyebrows.  The show is about a thirteen year-old boy who has stabbed a girl, his friend.  The show is thought to be based on an incident in which a 17 year-old teen stabbed a girl in England.  But that is being whitewashed, and that story from 2023 itself is being scrubbed from Google results, probably because people might talk about it in the wake of “Adolescence,” people such as Michael M Vlog. 

But the story wasn’t scrubbed from X, that’s for sure. 

The real perp of this stabbing crime is Hassan Sentamu, at the time 17 years old, who stabbed the beautiful 15-year-old Elianne Andam in South London in 2023.  The story as to why he stabbed her is pretty convoluted, but it was some messy break up situation in which Elianne tried to intervene, at which point Hassan stabbed her to death.  

So is “Adolescence” based on that incident?  It kind of sounds like it is.  Here’s an interview with the co-creator Stephen Graham, who explained in an interview posted on Netflix.com: 

“There was an incident where a young boy [allegedly] stabbed a girl. It shocked me. I was thinking, ‘What’s going on? What’s happening in society where a boy stabs a girl to death? What’s the inciting incident here?’”

Now you can’t read that excerpt and doubt that the events in the series are at least loosely based on Hassan, and other similar stabbings, none of whom I’m sure resemble much the character Jamie Miller.  But ok.  

Let’s just say it’s a total inversion of reality casting this boy as a murdering stabber. But then there’s also the DI Luke Dascombe, the reasonable cop, who thank God he’s there,  to let cooler heads prevail, and make sure everyone’s rights are observed.  He just diligently tries to get to the truth.  Thank God people like him are still left in England, am I right?   

The one white guy besides Jamie’s hapless father just happens to be cast as a midget, okay?

Another leftist trope in this series is the tough white woman; in this case a girl- boss police officer, not at all like the videos you’ve seen on social media of female cops getting their ass kicked by a random criminal three at a time. DI Misha Frank is so confident, so cool and blasé about her job, as though we need her in law enforcement more than she needs us.

And then to further humiliate the working class, Jamie’s father  has to watch him strip searched, as we get a close up of his face for a very uncomfortable few minutes.  By the way, Eddie Miller, played by Stephen Graham, is an excellent performance, and the kid playing Jamie is not bad either, even if he’s being used as a slander on incels.   

The British police have had some bad PR lately because they arrest people based on what they post on the internet, jokes and memes and such.  You can see clips online of some blonde female cops show up to someone’s house to interrogate them on their speech online;  it’s not a good look, and it’s actually the laughing stock of the Western World.  But “Adolescence” would have you believe the British police are quite justified in their little raids and there’s nothing untoward happening.

Back to Jamie, in a sense this is what might engage an audience: A cute kid, a smart kid, but also one that commits evil that he probably wouldn’t do in real life.  It’s to say this is who you need to be worried about, not the stereotypes of criminals–actually this kid.

It lets the left perpetuate their “dangerous incel” trope, and oh yes, they are going with that narrative.  Here’s from Vogue

“But to call Adolescence an incel drama, though technically accurate, is misleading. It is about male rage, it is about corrosive misogyny, it’s about the deep-seated fear (and expectation) of rejection.”

They really want you to believe that incels are responsible for the stabbing crime in England.  Lol.   In other words, you can leave watching “Adolescence” none the wiser about crime and England than when you began watching.

Elon Musk is under fire for responding “wow” to a tweet  which accused the Netflix series Adolescence of “race swapping.”   Deadline magazine published Saturday that there are “unsubstantiated online claims that [the series] changed the ethnicity of the main character to make the show’s killer 13-year old white boy Jamie Miller (Owen Cooper), who is arrested for the murder of a girl at his school.”  Right, unsubstantiated.

The first episode ends with this guy brow beating this boy he has moral indignation that the boy stabbed the girl would mean while the actual event was quite the contrary.

Netflix’s Adolescence created a world in which the villains are those whom the left wishes them to be: white males who listen to Andrew Tate,  disrespect women, and bully students of color–not like the videos you’ve seen online showing literally the opposite. 


Nonetheless, leftists and midwits across the Anglosphere are eating it up–-they love this series!
