          This garbage is shallow af with a blatant political agenda.
          It's basically about how men are bad, masculinity is toxic, and even 13 year old boys are the spawn of Satan that abuse women by simply existing.
          They really wanted the audience to hate this 13 year old male and to ignore the fact that he's a child.
          They clearly preferred that people feel bad for the oppressed psychologist who couldn't put her personal feelings aside and stop pretending to be a victim of toxic masculinity from a child.
          Was there a single man in this show that wasn't portrayed negatively? Even the detective guy was portrayed as an absent father and a dismissive asshole whereas the female detective was a victim of some gender war bullshit regarding headlines.

                They could have portrayed even one man in a positive way. Every single man in the show was portrayed negatively and all the women were eternal victims and subservient to the oppressive patriarchy.
                It wasn't well done. It's absurd and unrealistic.

                  This was a specific event about a specific occurrence. It shows the effects of toxic masculinity.

                    Toxic masculinity isn't real and 13 year old boys aren't masculine.

                        Men are bad and not allowed to be frustrated despite being under enormous pressure from a young age.

                          Men shouldn't murder women for rejecting their advances.
                          Even if they're still children.

                            I like how he was under a mass bullying campaign led by that cheeky slut but you assume his frustration was because of a momentary rejection.

                              So it's ok to kill a girl out of frustration but not ok for aforementioned girl to say mean words out of frustration?
                              The "bullying campaign" was a set of very specific emojis on Instagram, indicating his misogynistic view on girls was well known.
                              I.e. they were likely in response to things he had previously said done.
                              He was also bullied by boys, why did he target the girl and not them?

                                Can you show me the clip from the show where this is implied or shown?
                                It's pretty clear from what the other kids say that it was a harassment campaign by the slut. They intentionally made him hate himself by making this 13 year old child feel like he's ugly and worthless. FAFO
                                He was also bullied by boys, why did he target the girl and not them?
                                Wrong place wrong time. She was also the leader of the mass harassment campaign. Maybe she should have been more careful how she treated other people. Not everything is a patriarchal conspiracy using magical masculinity magic.

                                  Yes, the entirety of episode 3 covers his attitude towards women.
                                  He even wants credit from the psychologist for not raping the corpse of the teenage girl he just murdered in cold blood for rejecting him.
                                  There is also episode 2 when the cop's son explained the whole "red pill" philosophy to his dad.
                                  This implies it was well known among the students that Jamie and his mates had horrible attitudes towards women.
                                  The extent of these attitudes is fully covered in episode 3.
                                  Btw there's your positive male character, the copper's son.
                                  Not sure how you manage to miss that one…
                                  You are making it sound like the "harassment campaign" came out of nowhere.
                                  There is plenty of indication it didn't.
                                  Maybe she should have been more careful how she treated other people.
                                  Maybe the murderer shouldn't have murdered a teenage girl out of frustration?
                                  You are giving a murderer infinite leeway and mitigation while affording none of this charity to the victim.
                                  Why might this be?
