The series is left-leaning due to its dominant themes of a female victim's struggle for justice against gender-based violence, the psychological impact of trauma, and the challenge of being believed, which align with progressive values.

The series demonstrates significant diversity through its casting choices, including the explicit recasting of a traditionally white character with a minority actor. While the narrative features a white male antagonist, its primary focus is on the protagonist's journey of survival and agency against a specific individual's violence, rather than a broad critique of traditional identities.
