Don’t let the Netflix title fool you — there is nothing “adolescent” about this mini-series. In a special episode of "Fearless," Jason reviews the popular Netflix show "Adolescence." What initially appears to be a crime thriller ultimately unfolds into underlying tropes that paint men — specifically white men — in a negative light. The plot follows a young white boy accused of murdering one of his female classmates as detectives attempt to uncover the truth behind the crime. While this premise sounds captivating, in reality, the detectives discover that the young white boy (the alleged culprit) was being cyberbullied by the victim, who repeatedly called him an “incel.” The show further delves into the idea that 80% of women are attracted to only 20% of men, implying that some men will never have the opportunity to indulge in their sexual desires. Whitlock argues that this message is not only a direct attack on white men but also an attack on the patriarchy itself. According to him, feminism is the real issue in this country — women believing they don’t need men in their lives while simultaneously benefiting from a world built on the backs of men. "Adolescence" also promotes premature sexual activity, portraying it as the defining measure of a man's worth. Simply put, our world is becoming more perverted. Fortunately, shows like "Fearless" exist to expose destructive narratives like this one. Tune in!
