The Handmaid’s Tale is a heavyweight program that charts what would happen if a totalitarian regime took over. It plays out the same way in Margaret Atwood’s book of the same name, although the latest plot of season 4 isn’t the same as the original.

It wasn’t until the proclamation of New Bethlehem (another Gilead territory) that Tuelo realized that he could no longer work in the slow and stealthy way.

8 Law of Gilead
It is a sad fact, but in Gilead, women are not allowed to read. They don’t need to educate themselves if their job is to be a maid and martha. This meme tells that gritty and heartbreaking story, and through Arthur cartoon.
When the child was looking at a sign that might say no entry or closed, she wasn’t stopped because if she represented the women of Gilead she wouldn’t be able to read it. Even if she could read, she was forbidden to do so. Oppressing women in this way is an important part of the story The Handmaid’s Tale.

Footage of the woman gobbling up a gourmet burger and humorously looking into the camera shows how fans feel when Fred is about to die.
My 5 Queen Elizabeth
Elisabeth Moss stars in the show as Joan, the queen to everyone else at Gilead. She risked her life time and time again to stand up for what is right. She helps the others escape while staying behind for her daughter. She also orchestrated the whole scheme to get hundreds of maids, Martha, and children fleeing to Canada to safety.

First 4 times?

3 The art of simulating life
What’s interesting is that many of the stories take place in The Handmaid’s Tale Reflect real life events. In this meme, the image of the maids sitting around chatting looks like they’re discussing Roe vs. Wade has been debunked.

2 Sorry Serena
For most of the series, Serena was clearly the villain who took advantage and abused June. There are many examples of Serena being the worst person on earth The Handmaid’s Tale.
