Forwarded along the Tales of the Longhouse portion at around 40 mins in to a bunch of people, who listened and were horrified. Should almost be its own podcast, I don't think a lot of people know how bad it's gotten.
You guys say you don't understand why right wing guys hate the ideology of Mad Men, then spend 10 minutes literally dissecting how evil and stupid the show makes alpha males look. That's why we don't like it. It presents masculinity as inherently toxic and Don Draper as a figure worthy of viewers' scorn and pity. This is why Draper has joined the ranks of Rorschach and American Psycho as unintentional aspirational figures.
