because reality exists to service burger brain treat shows like this, not the other way around.
the people who watch this level of slop aren't looking for a documentary. they don't want to even learn one singular fact about the world. facts are nerds. they want to emotionally resonate like a tuning fork for several hours with the fleeting notion an 8 year might have while looking at a Disney drawn castle.
lmao did Hexbear just discover fiction today or something?
definitely see people on here frequently taking the anti-treat stuff to an extreme hyper-Maoist sort of level, as if all escapism is bad
no but if the place is just set dressing and basically consists of a name, why not use andorra or liechtenstein? they both sound like fantasy names, they both have weird prince shit going on, and they both exist.
or at least do 10 seconds of bland worldbuilding and put it like a normal euro mircrostate principality, squeezed in between the borders of two or three normal countries. but nooo, some dumbass at netflix production dept just went "it's europe, the countries are over here, in the general europe area"
i'm looking forward to movies set in Los Vangelis, Chadifornia in the USA. why not.
Someone else would be saying: "why didn't they just make up a fake country if they weren't going to do it right?" The people actually making this shit are probably just trying to pay rent and don't care, their bosses definitely don't care beyond making money, and I guess the people watching it don't either. You've probably thought about it more in these comments than any of them ever did.
