It carries the seed of a whole worldview, where _everything_ is just an act, where you have never *seen* your president or a transperson or a Nazi but are strongly against/in favour of it and that is **wrong**, you can't justify that, you've fallen victim to seeing things that aren't there. Not really direct realism, but anti-indirect realism.

Bojack Horseman “The View from Halfway Down” is the most realistic depiction of death in fiction. Most fiction approaches death, but then does some weird turn and sings "lalala death is okay see there's still perception here and people looking at a body" while TVFHD actually shows the blank black empty blindness.
It says that DEATH IS ACTUALLY FUCKING REAL AND IT'S FINAL AND NEVERENDING AND THERE IS NO OTHER SIDE and that is the truth.
