The Accidental Subtext of Iron Fist

So...Just finished the first season of Marvel's Iron Fist on Netflix, and...
I've got BIG problems with the execution that are pretty far-ranging, but that's been made obvious by the fact that this entry even exists. There is definitely a lot to unpack, but let me get one thing out of the way first. It's not the absolute worst. There's certainly a lot to be desired, and I'll get to that, but the show is not complete garbage. It's not The Cape. That said, I'm about to air some grievances like it's Festivus. Spoilers ahead...
I've got A LOT OF PROBLEMS with this show...and you're gonna read about 'em!!
