Confederate: a "fantasy" that slavery has "evolved into a modern institution"? Sick, sick, sick. Glad my pirated HBO ends before it's out.

why would hbo ever need to make a show like confederate? adding extra and unnecessary assault scenes wasn't enough? y'all need slavery too? pic.twitter.com/7lbCndLPRn

I love HBO and they make good series, but Confederate sounds like a god awful idea. Do they even know what's going on in this country?

Between Black victims of police brutality, and a known white nationalist in the White House, this Confederate HBO series seems tone deaf.

Is HBO really making a racist's wet dream with Confederate?? In this climate for black people??

Why are people assuming HBO, home of THE WIRE, TREME, INSECURE, and OZ, is going to do a disrespectful job with CONFEDERATE? That's silly.

If done properly this HBO alt History Confederate series could very well be like Amazon's The Man in the High Castle

The whole outcry against the confederate war TV show on #HBO is dumb, was no outcry to Man in The High Castle. Besides it's just TV.
