In our view, "Ragdoll" places significant emphasis on modern identity politics in both casting and character focus. Identity factors often overshadow traditional storytelling or character development. Several characters seem shaped more by current social trends than organic narrative needs, giving the series an air of forced representation at times.

Traditional norms, especially around policing, authority, and masculinity, often get sidelined or questioned in the show. There’s a clear attempt to reframe established institutions and characters through a more modern, and, arguably, critical, lens, reflecting updated social values over time-honored ones.

Most characters seem to adhere to the same progressive perspectives, with little room for genuine, well-developed dissent. Traditional or alternative worldviews are typically depicted through extremes, lacking nuance or credible representation. It appears that the show leans heavily toward a single ideological stance.
