No wonder there is a skewed understanding of Care Experienced people when shows like The Fall sit on the Netflix top five chart for two weeks in a row.

Spoiler: it’s not the only show on Netflix about a sexual predator with an origin story which focuses on an experience of care

I use the term “origin story” because the same service hosts shows featuring Care Experienced super-heroes who use their experience of care to help them fight evil.

It’s hard to find the nuance. It’s either superhero or psychopath. That’s the story the world is being told.

There are other streaming services but it seems @NetflixUK is OBSESSED with Care Experienced people.

Our lives are taken and distilled into tropes and fed into a service which then distributes them via an algorithm which craves nothing but views.

These shows don’t really generate discussion about how we can improve Care Experienced people’s lives or how we can boost Care Experienced stories.

Show after show misrepresenting Care Experienced people is binged upon. Meanwhile the shows with any nuance are flash in the pan.

The adaptation of @bykenarmstrong’s article about Marie, a Care Experienced woman “Unbelievable” came and went.

The shows which feed on some desire for shock and gore meanwhile float to the top of the algorithm and sit there. Trickling into homes around the world.

It’s no wonder people protest against children’s homes. Tell their kids not to play with Care Experienced people or worry about their own children marrying one of us.

The population has been drip-fed a narrative about Care Experienced people that is unfair and inaccurate.

I know @NetflixUK is a massive global company but I genuinely think it’s about time they sat down with Care Experienced people and discussed what damage their service is doing and what potential it has to do good.

So, @NetflixUK @netflix who do I speak to?
