"Buying London" leans heavily into identity-driven casting and spotlighting diverse backgrounds at every turn, with more emphasis placed on personalities and social causes than merit or real estate expertise. The glitz often seems to hinge less on property deals and more on representation, leading some viewers to feel narrative strength is sacrificed for trendy inclusivity.

Family, tradition, and established values are more or less absent, taking a backseat to ultra-modern, individualistic perspectives. Classic entrepreneurial hustle and traditional ideas of aspiration are swapped for narratives extolling disruption and new-age values, making the whole thing feel like a break from cultural roots.

There's very little sign of genuine ideological debate or alternative viewpoints, everyone seems comfortably aligned with the prevailing ‘woke’ orthodoxy. Dissenting or more traditional worldviews get only a cursory nod, if any, and foes of the status quo are painted in broad, unsympathetic strokes.
