FU Netflix - this is utter crap. All such "mediums" etc. are absolute con artists. There is no afterlife, no spirits, no deities etc - total figments of the human brain/psyche largely based on grief and fear of death.
There is a never increasing number of TV shows that on cable that push this type of crap. Keeps people distracted from real problems like wannabe fascists trying to gain control of their countries, climate change, industrial pollution killing them, etc.
Netflix doesn't produce shows to "distract" anyone from anything, they produce shows they think people will watch, and there's no shortage of people willing to be told that death is just make-believe.
@mcfate depends on who promoted the idea to them in the first place. But I was referring to the phenomenon across all media. It's a variation on panem et circenses, so useful for those who want control,. and major media ownership appears to be largely owned or controlled by right wing conservatives.
