You're doing that thing that leftists do right now.

It viscerally captured a bunch of feelings and experiences that I haven't seen portrayed before. Took me straight back to my 20s in a not great way. The worry that the person who says they love you is just mentally ill and loving you is a symptom of their mental illness.
Also loved seeing The Simpsons references.

This might be an example of the classic Little England attitude; they're all from foreign parts.

Tankie left will selectively use the language of the Mental Health Left when it suits them, to cover or to pander.

Yeah, you just don't mention it again and everyone assumes it was a miscarriage and you don't want to discuss it. But yes, Influencers are obnoxious, I know.
If anything, I was impressed with the restraint of the film itself. It could have dropped a lot more extraneous details or references to modern gender dating war cliches from one side or the other. My impression was one of the writer expressing his commentary, regrets and self-loathing regarding his younger-self stand-in MC. Other negative depictions of men just pile on buzzword stereotypes ("and then the tech-bro situation-shipped her due to his toxic insecurity and red-pill-negged her, something-something-agency, something-something narcissism, podcast")
