Turns out the show "Breaking Bad" was all just a gigantic code for white supremacy

I've only caught one or two episodes. I'm a huge fan of the walking dead, but other than that, I don't have time for much tv (besides college football and some fox
), and missed out on watching breaking bad from the get go. Is it worth watching? It's going to be shown from episode one in some marathon this week. I'm not into the white supremacy/SS crap, and didn't observe that theme in the brief episodes I've seen.

I recall seeing two or three partial episodes not long after it started. I've never been much a fan of such serials.Quote from LEAPup:

To me there is no drama, suspense or even realism when you KNOW the star of the show cannot die.
Only problem is that Gus isn't black; either in the show or in real life. If I remember correctly, Gus is South American, speaks Spanish and was basically abused by the cartel head (Salamanca), hence his plot to destroy the cartel and get them off of his back.
IRL, the actor is Giancarlo Esposito.
It's by far the best show I've ever watched...hands down.
You have a point about the main character, but that holds true for just about any series. Regardless, what happens to all of the peripheral characters is what makes the show tick.
It's all the most cynical depiction of modern America that you'll ever see. Just about everyone is some sort of criminal, no matter how small and that resonates.
Every business is a "front" for something else and I haven't really seen a show that will go to such depth's and present a really honest look at what is going on in this country.
I know but he appears black. He certainly isn't white.

The Aryan Nation stuff is a minor subplot.
The show is one of my favorites. I would say if you liked The Sopranos or Dexter, you will like it. If the thought of a guy cooking meth being the main character bothers you, then it's probably not for you.
The point of the show is this older guy, a loser high school teacher, gets shafted every way possible, from getting cancer to losing his job, etc. He has a pregnant wife and handicapped son and is desperate for money. The beautyof the show is he is trying to live this normal suburban life but is getting more and more deeply inmeshed in the drug business at the same time.
The show is addicted to irony, but I won't spoil it for you by elaborating. The final season in particular has delved into the conflict between self-interest or self preservation and human decency.
This punk knows absolutely nothing about the drug trade, specifically Meth. If he did a tiny bit of research he would realize that the issue in making high quality Meth is scarcity of ingredients, not because the market will not reward such a product. Also, if you are going to take a risk, your product should be as high of quality as possible because if you get busted it is going to be by weight. Might as well make as much money as possible for that risk, because the good shit is going to sell for much more per pound. That is fact!

I was in the war on drugs for years. I wasn't on the PD side. Details about the trade in BB aren't the main focus for me but all that scientific procedure and equipment is fascinating, as is WW's skills in lab procedures. Most of the people don't surprise me, Pinkman and his buddies are little different than myself/buddies at that age. I see it all as personalities because in that business you learn to size people up very quickly, you know them by the look in their eyes. You don't know them by their names, they don't use their real names, you won't know a lot by the stories they tell because they are not interested in revealing much about themselves... and many are psychopaths that have been inventing their personalities from a very early age.
To me that show is about WW and what it takes to drive a relatively normal person to enter into the world of crime. The world of crime is radically different than the the world of the greater culture and a different type of personality will succeed, specifically a highly intelligent murdering psychopath will be at the top of the heap regardless of ethnicity. Same goes for anarchy/communism/fascism, I can point to Stalin-Hitler-Idi Amin for examples of how that plays out.
Is Walter's wife an INFJ? Hell yes, makes decisions without regard for other's feelings, is concerned with HER shit, HER things, HER space, rules by turning the marriage partnership into a thing where she has veto power over everything, etc.. Walter can't figure all that shit out with his wife, he thinks her head works like his. In the last episode he screams at her "you never support anything I want to do!". It's the way it is with a bitch like that. I'm afraid that I'm going to watch the entire season only to find that she winds up with all the money! Bitches like that will step up to the plate and hit it out of the park if they see an opportunity to screw over everybody else, I think it's a logical outcome for that to happen.
Walter is not a moralist, he's one of those science teacher atheistic jerks that polluted us all the way through our educations, right? So he's not into killing but it grows on him, he rationalizes it as he goes along. Nobody holds it against him when he blows Gus Fring's face off do they? I was cheering, I've had too much problems with murdering psychopaths like him, though none were like him, he had taste.. you usually find that psychopaths have no aesthetic sense at all...
To me the show is about WW's psychological development as he grows into the role of Minor Drug Lord. He really should have stopped and learned about people, studied a little psychology and gotten the upper hand in his marriage. His wife drives him crazy and the fact that he has only a short time to live alters his perception of the future, he goes all-in every day...
I can't wait for each episode, the photography is outstanding, the script is outstanding, the characters are developed incredibly well, the suspense is right out of the serial westerns of the '50's.. what a show!
The whole racism thingy never occurred to me, only some commie asshat would have to use a great work of art like that show to stir up some more racism. I'm to the point with this racism thing, what with these commies using it as a very major tool in forwarding their agenda day in and day out, that given opportunity, hee hee, the motive is there...
