Today I read something which completely terrified me.
'The road to the world of The Handmaids Tale is lined with people smiling and telling us to stop overreacting.'
Can't stop thinking about it.
Stop overreacting
Sure heard that alot during the Trump years
Well attwood did write it about the Americans. Weve thought that country was awful for years. Mainly because we have to be next to them and they bring guns and violence into our country.
Fucking powerful.
@@tootoolafroo And we are getting closer and closer to it. Have you read up on Project 25?
Offglenn blowing up the Red Centre will always be my favorite badass handmaid moment. That look of fearless defiance on her face, her arm raised over her head...such a powerful scene!
EXACTLY I JUST---
Oh my god, yes! Brought me to tears!
Raised over her head like Lady Liberty 🗽
That and the fact that she pretty much gave the handmaid's a chance to run.
Women like you are to blame for this glut of shit "entertainment".
Janine making jokes before what could have been her execution is iconic ngl
Not to hard guys.
She’s an icon, she’s a legend, and she IS the moment….now com’on now
It's not so much a joke. It's heartbreaking since she's 'developmentally regressed', (possibly) pre, and post Gilead, and Handmaids training and it's trauma. 'disabled', part of why everyone especially Aunt Lydia had a soft spot for her. And she may not be truly able to conceptualise in that moment, that her friends where about (supposed) to actually kill her. That her mind told her she'll get punished with rocks but after that, another day. Like a figurehead of just how bad Gilead was. Aunt Lydia called them girls to infantalise them, but Janine, she was the infantile girl.
She’s my absolute favourite 💕
I think her losing an eye was her breaking point. Remember how defiant Janine was when she first got to the Red Center?
Jeanine is a survivor in every sense of the world. She’s wiggled away from death at every turn.
So true. I want Janine to make it out of this alive and FREE.
I think the only time she won't will be her choice.
Yes! My only disappointment about the character is that the producers failed to her making her returnin' to Gilead after that bombing that splitted her from June.
And about June, I know she's the protagonist, but it should share the protagonism among the other characters, like Emily, for example. Emily was too misused.
Jeanine deserves her happy ending with her daughter. I am hoping at least she gets it at the end of the series.
I think it would have been powerful to mirror when Janine had her first baby taken from her, dropping the rocks and kneeling by her in a “protective”circle. The guards would have to end them all or none of them
For the people who are saying that this is fiction, yes I understand that this is a series that was based off a book, but you must understand that the things inside of the handmaids tale is based on things that actually happened at one point and is still happening today in some places. Stoning for example, that's pretty familiar, no? Let's not forget the main issue in this series that is still a great issue today, using God to justify your inhumane actions against those who you deem to be lower than you.
God, in my opinion, is already the invention that was created to justify all evil aso.
Which is not to say that there is no higher power. But the Buddhists, for example, have simply not given a character to this power that serves the ego and makes all evil sanctified.
I am also beginning to believe that Jesus was a Buddha whose story was not to be understood physically, but psychologically. An attempt to explain with the scourging and crucifixion to somehow describe how it felt to be enlightened. And what caused it.
The Buddhists also hold that there is not just one, but several, and that it is theoretically possible for everyone to reach this state.
So quite simple, another place in the world, other cultures, myths, another attempt and corresponding parables to describe what happened.
Margaret Atwood was careful in the book to only include actions and attitudes that have precedent in human history.
Yep! People forget what Afghanistan and Iran looked like 40-50 years ago vs what they look like today. It is 100% possible for a "civilized" society to fall completely back into dark-ages style zealotry, theocratic tyranny, and barbarity. Let the wrong ones have too much power and this can be very real.
The change is slow…so slow we don’t see it right away. All changes to liberty are ‘justified’ by someone until all liberty is gone. In the U.S.A women’s liberties are being rusticated today…we are walking back in time. All it takes for evil to prevail is for good people to do nothing.
Iranian revolution comes to mind first. @@Olive_O_Sudden
When Emily beat the s**t out of aunt Lydia…was one of the best moments
Why, in the name of Heaven, did you delete Emily running over the guardian and severing his leg?! THAT was the best part.
UA-cam is super oversensitive about that sorta thing these days.
She ran over his head if i remember correctly
@@silverblade357
It's okay your videos are awesome
he eieusbp
Too graphic for UA-cam
I don't like that you gave Emily her credit but not Ofglen. "They" didn't do shit, OFGLEN blew up the Red Center. There was no "they," she was the hero and she alone. Even June was only focused on survival and finding her daughter until Ofglen sent the Red Slave Center up in smoke. Ofglen inspired June to become what she became.
Good point 👍
Agreed! Martyrdom at its finest!
They didn't draw attention or ruin her plan either ;)
You are 100% right. Of glen was a badass and went out in the most fitting and empowering way possible but j really wish we got to spend more time with her. She is an icon. Period.
I swear, I don't know how the showrunners were able to do it, but they did. In the midst of an oppressive regime, we get some of the most empowering women's rights scenes in recent television history. These characters are the embodiment of bravery and make me proud to be a woman.
What repressive regime?
@@jeannerogers7085 in the show. The handmaids live in a society that oppresses women's rights.
@@jeannerogers7085 You think Handmaids being treated as breeding stock is not a repressive regime?
I love the badass women of Gilead. One of my favorite scenes is in "Liars" when the Marthas at Jezebel's clean up the room and erase all all signs of Commander Winslow's existence as Offred and Lawrence wait for the Eyes to come for them.
If June would have made a statement like: He who is without Sin, cast the first stone.
Then drop your stone that would have been incredible moment.
They use the scriptures to have religious control domination over these girls.
God meant the scriptures to be used to set his people free.
Something similar would've been a nice add. But they don't follow the actual bible!
So many layers. You are correct. Then again, for these women having faced bondage, terror, and trauma in the name of religion, I can also see this as their own act of defiance. For just one moment, they seek no approval from a god or a man but create their own justice, acting and speaking for themselves.
I thought the exact same thing. It would have been so much better to twist their own beliefs on them by drawing from the Bible itself.
The Scriptures are used by whoever is in power to suit their own end. That’s all they’ve ever been intended for.
@@MrSparkula You're like 10% correct.
- Red Centre scene is still goosebumps worthy! [Although i wish they showed similar scenes like those]
- Angels flight had me in tears by the end of it.
- The van escape in season 4 was ❤🩹
- June's mafia boss moment which broke offmathew 😎
The Center explosion was number 1 for me
I think they have had far more than "four badass moments"!
Exactly! One of the most recent moments just happened this last season, too!
😂 women can't be "badass". They're girlies not intimidating 🤭
The only bad thing about Season 5 is that Gilead isn't being carpet bombed and rocketed out of existence by a vengeful world, with escaped handmaids directing the action.
If it weren't for a worldwide lack of fertility, it might have happened.
@@terrib627 Then it's easier to NOT kill children, who will be raised together in a protected space........something the US isn't particularly good at avoiding.
That would be too kind. They'd want to have the commanders swinging at the end of a rope, give them a taste of their own medicine
Horribly realistic though. Just look at North Korea. We know and yet…
You cut it off to early, the part where the volunteer/refugee recognises his daughter and she him, when she's first to get off the flight is very touching.
Emily driving is my favorite. Such a powerful.
This tv series is not fiction as long as it’s completely possible now. I watched it with a lump in my throat and my stomach turning.
The best TV series I have ever seen, so powerful.
I miss the part where Emily stabs Aunt Lydia on the back. That was too badass! When I watched that I cheered up so loud and got so vibrated 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It’s sad that a certain party is trying to use this as a blue print for our country
But worse since we would be "worshiping" Orange Jesus.
Not sad. It is terrifying, and the silent majority will let them.
@@durabo7612Not if we get out and vote!!!!!
زن، زندگی، آزادی✌️

Amen
Dont let the bastards grind you down , for me the best line .
Passive resistance at it's finest!
Ofglen 2 bomb scene is my fave moment in the show.
It’s sad how realistic this is
Where? Please point out where in the world it's like this without exaggerating, please.
@@billbombshiggy9254 you’re just too dense to understand and that’s ok, but we could sit here and talk about the very messed up abortion laws that are currently going on that this work is inspired by. Or the fact we as woman have no agency over our body in society or the justice system were shamed to a heavy extent and called very derogatory terms only for woman
@@billbombshiggy9254 have you ever heard of the middle east? I don't know if you heard why were people protesting in Iran. Also Afghanistan and Syria are such a wonderful place for women
@@irenepetroni oh, I didn't know that they forced women to have rich men's babies, and then sent them away to someone else.
Oh that's right. They don't.
@@nursemain3174 we don't? Funny, I wouldn't trade places with a man for any amount of money. Oh no, some states won't let us kill our babies! IM LITERALLY A SLAVE.
Here's a novel idea. Don't have sex if you don't want babies. It's easy. See, when I was younger, I kept popping them out because I wouldn't stop having sex (I'm no whore. They all have the same father.) But then I finally stopped and got sterilized. I actually didn't want the youngest so I didn't kill it, but did the super easy responsible and not morally reprehensible thing, and gave him up for adoption. He's 17 now. I'm glad I didn't murder him for selfish needs.
One of the most amazing shows I have ever seen.
I bawled when the plane flew over her head. I’m not gonna lie…
Never had anything make me want to watch this before but now I kinda do
Wait is this a movie or Texas in 2022?
It's Texas, you caught on.
Yes
It's Texas! Enjoy your stay.
Welcome to Howdy Arabia, at least if you're a white male
Texas doesnt even put props on the ballot. They're going to regret that real real soon
You have power if they need you
And you have power if you are armed
Fight back sisters
What about June slapping the Commander? And Emily stabbing Aunt Lydia?
Lydia and Fred are the worst monsters
Serena too
Lawrence is worse than all those. He made Gilead and with cold indifference he made sure it kept running.
@nikrose5229 Yes, Serena the sneaky one. She plays that innocent wife at the same time she herself was part of creating that world. She had Tuello convinced that she only did those things because she was an abused wife. Even in the flashbacks she was very independent and outspoken. By end of the latest season she not only had her baby, but her freedom from the mess she help create. Like if anyone that doesn't deserve the happiness its her.
Janine and Emily are best of the best!they are amazingly strong!
One of the best series I´ve ever seen! Fine acting and all despite the subject
Show is amazing , remember all these clips , always glued to the tv screen when this is on 👍
I remember the first time i saw the angels flight scene my eyes were swollen from crying. I can only pray im that strong if it came down to it
0:30 saving her from the river so they could kill her is sick
I find it too difficult to watch this show with the current state of affairs for women in anti-choice America. But this montage is so epic. They’re defiance is astounding.
They should have all said Thou Shalt Not Kill.
I think you should've included the part where Oflgen spoke up about the stoning in the first place. Otherwise it might have never given the handmaids the courage to disobey.
I....I think Im gonna watch this show.
It's Intense but a freaking good drama
Don't. 99% of the time it's fucking boring as shit with awful character development. Everyone is one dimensional with one motivating factor. The only ones who are actually kind of deep and more than one dimensional are Serena and Lydia. Everyone else is lame. Emily is gay and that's her motivation. She along with June just totally forget they have spouses and go off whoring around and falling in love with other people (especially Emily) when they should be worried about getting to their families.
I love you, sisters.
I'm sorry Aunt Lydia
The power of a will and a stone.
02:53 *CPAC CONVENTION 2023 ONWARDS* TIS THE "RED CENTRE" AFTER ALL
Good analogy.
realy good
Gilead can rot . But the handmaid's rule
Up to Season 4, this show was amazing.
Blowing up the red center always makes me sad when you see the Handmaids at the top floor being blown into the glass
‘Let He Who Is Without Sin Cast the First Stone’ -- John 8.7
This WILL be America if the GOP are allowed to hold power.
Lol..meanwhile women aborting babies that would grow up to be women..a tad poetic..killing their own future.
Where are the choices for aborted females?
@@orion2250 oh wow, another man who only cares about women when they’re unborn clumps of cells.
Generational curses on your families for destroying those of others
June ma préférée ❤❤❤❤
Ummmm
How could you not include when they get Waterford in the forest‽
I mean they could have stoned Janine themselves if they wanted to after the handmaids refused.
That would give them a martyr, they don't want handmaid's to think about who the real enemy is.
Emily is new Kubica or Hołowczyc🥰
It is kind of weird for me to hear June's real voice, I am so used to the French dub and the VA has such a deeper voice.
America , supposed to be free from all religious prosecution.
what season and episode is the first one?
S1 Ep 10
How dare they take the symbol of the Great Goddess and pervert it so disgracefully. These women were the Goddess Incarnate.
What did the little girl say at the end- I couldn't understand her- " she said something like Ms. Like is???????? Can someone please tell me
Is this the place where I can wear what I want
Com on la saison 6 svp
So essentially, men are at war with women - it's right there in the symbolism.
Watching this show, it makes me thinking that being conservative can be communist.
Freds death
Let ye who is without sin cast the first stone....... no stone is thrown thanks to June's bad@$$ness
Brazil, 2024...
This is Trumps world vision
Pretty much. He wants to be worshipped.
It isnt badass to apologize for NOT brutally murdering someone.
Fighting back against murder rape and enslavement is badass
Fun fact - the lead actress and her family are hardcore scientologists. Pretty badass, eh? Feel free to fact check if you wish.
Who cares? Crazy is as crazy does.
@@LittleBitofHopeToo2518I was being ironic - sort of like your choice to call yourself "LittleBitofHopeToo2518", whilst proclaiming "Who cares?" Perhaps "LittleBitofApathy2518" might suit you better.

America under trump and christian nationalists.😂😂😂
El oh el
Cultish series
🙄🙄🙄
Afghanistan.
I don't know if I would include the killing of Fred here. I understand the circumstances (because I watched the show), but it was too savage.
Preferred original version when the story was about whay the aurthor wrote about instead of people harping on about Junes character and all her close ups. The show just got to be too focused on that character all the time. Her face day in day out. Got bored with it evrntually.
Everything about this is like current 2024 Muslim countries
And where the US is headed if we’re not careful. Religious extremism combined with power hungry men
Gliead is catholics
Didn't you see the scene where they kidnapped the nuns.
Hmm... No. Catholicism is against abortion, which means intentionally ending a life of an unborn human. It has nothing to do with hating women, just as preventing parents from killing their born offspring is not hating anyone, but rather making sure every human life is respected and protected. We are absolutely against rape, sexual slavery, forced surrogacy. We don't want women to be unable to read or uneducated, they aren't any less valuable than men in God's eyes
No. It's MAGAts
This scene is the MAGA republican's wet dream. Vote blue in november as if your life depends on it, ladies, because it literally does.
Looks like the propaganda is working.
@@JDT-xj1tw Huh..? Since the end of Roe v Wade Red states immediately went to ban abortion and make life harder for women in a wide variety of ways. Thousands of women have become pregnant through rape in Texas and other Red states and can't get abortions.
@@JDT-xj1tw there are so many right wing talking heads who literally want this. They want women confined to the home and the property of men. Not to mention they want gay and trans people wiped out
Save our daughters,vote blue.
Never seen this show, it looks a bit of an alarmist view on things
No. It's really, really good.
Read the book first.
this is exaclly what happen with afanistant women now , and also another islam country
The bombing and ‘Angel’s Flight’ were most immoral and definitely not badass
????
@@camilledamianoffzoco5260 Loads of innocent handmaids died. Plus, kidnapping children and sending them to a foreign country against their will didn't sit right with me.
@@animopedlive1160 U do realize that these children were kidnapping victims being returned to their families ryt?
Bad ass? It’s a show not based on reality. You couldn’t pay men to marry and have children.
Ok pedo
Actually it very much is based on reality.
@@lovelyhoney3334 So says the misandrist feminist.
@@calinasagilitypartner4444 Whose reality? It never happened.
"you couldnt pay men to marry and have children" you just proved how relevant this show is to culture since the men in the show felt similarly thus creating a system in which women are oppressed in order to appease men- similar to the last few thousands of years of human culture in the real world- you know with women not being even allowed to work until less than 100 years ago and still the affects and deeply ingrained patriarchy affects every aspect of society: just look at sex crime stats, 97% of reported crimes go unprosecuted by our justice system , the victims are everyone infants included, yet the perpetrators are mostly men... I mean i guess if you agree that if the sexes were swapped and everything is as it currently is you wouldnt claim their is a power imbalance?
BS propaganda.
Never. It was a lame show that was used, poorly, as a political prop. Nothing more.
Okay William lol
It is a show about the most extreme form of oppression of women and how horrible of a world this would be.
And it's speaking the truth now more than ever when America is stripping women's right away left-and-right isn't it? Afraid of facing the world you built?
Tell me you don't know anything about Iran without telling me you don't know anything about Iran.
@@pluckybellhop66 I didn’t know it was based on Iran. Where did you get that information? (Not trying to start a fight, I just love researching).
Vote people, this is what Maga wants for your future
hahaha just stop.
Idiot democrats want this
What? MIGTOW is the future. You couldn’t pay men to marry and have children. Keep living some bs feminist nonsense.
*eyeroll*
@pauljuarez1784 Silly, controlled breeding is not a MAGA thing. That’s a Progressive thing. MAGA’s thing would be forcing you to have babies.
This is the world conservatives want.
This is a movie people not reality and an idiotic movie at that
The book was based exactly on what happened in Iran, in case anyone is wondering why this man's comment is so dangerously ignorant.
Everything you saw in this mini series has actually happened.
Margaret Atwood, who wrote the novel The Handmaid's Tale, researched this.
So it is reality, sorry you don't believe it.
