    I mean they telegraphed it pretty hard with everyone in the other universe being blonde white people.

    I floated the idea with another guy who watched it and he was just confused, he never noticed that there weren't any minorities. I almost convinced myself that the idea was bad because "Well they could just have cast a ton of white people" but then I thought that they would still have had one of the major poc characters appear.

    spoilerI was really worried this was just gonna be a season of Chris being cringe as he tries to fit into other Chris's shoes, but as soon as they did the face melting at the beginning of the latest ep I realized why his dad was a hero. This is much more preferable.

    spoiler

    I had my suspicions from the very start because a universe where the White Dragon is a respected hero had to have something wrong with it

    Especially since they revealed that they stole the pocket universe tech instead of actually developing it themselves

    Which is something that I suspected, because why would some Nazi fuck who made his kids fight for money probably wasn't bright enough to do super-science

    spoilerI questioned it in the beginning when Keith was alive, like are they both racist then? But when it wasnt addressed immediately I kept waiting for the shoe to drop of Chris not living up to the expectations of a beloved "Captain America" type Peacemaker. I kinda just forgot about it until the faces melted.
