stopped watching Stranger Things many years ago because it was anticommunist slop fare.

same and I was really digging that show. also it should have just stuck to being about an entirely unknowable, alien, Lovecraftian Old One intelligence instead of the stupid hamfisted anti-collectivist BS they went with

as soon as the CIA black opts group shifted from utterly evil SCP type org to more benign “we won’t even have you killed and may call upon you later” i knew that show was fucking doomed
