I watched the first season, and I just saw the first episode of the second season, and this was a day after watching the new BBC documentary about settlers in the West Bank. I did notice how the aesthetics of the little patsoc enclave in the last of us match those of the isn’treali settlers; i.e., wearing machine guns all the time, dressing like cowboys, dehumanizing the enemy and blowing them away even when they aren’t attacking you and then laughing about it, living in a walled town, etc.. I only watched this because my younger son was into it, and after the first episode, we watched a little of the BBC documentary together, and he was also shocked at the parallels.
