I do not really hate the series if you view it as a symbolic critique of the depraved and reckless Soviet system that did actually cause the disaster, rather than a faithful depiction of the actual people involved. But a story about Chernobyl where Valery Legasov is the hero is the same a story about the pandemic where Anthony Fauci is the hero. On top of the innumerable historical inaccuracies, this is just intolerable.
