Mr. Inbetween - On Behalf Of Society

As you can tell from the comments this is clearly an Australian documentary and is 100% real.

[@TheNerdForAllSeasons]

He's not wrong about people being entirely too comfortable acting disrespectful. There are no consequences anymore.

[@skywillfindyou]

And it's not bad until disrecpect becomes physical.

[@TheNerdForAllSeasons]

@@skywillfindyou Nah, there are acceptable reasons to bash someone for speaking out of line. Wives mothers and children are off limits. Insulting them is a valid reason for getting your ass beat.

[@nipponsuxs]

I totally agree. The only problem is at what line does someone become disrespectful? Insulting you directly to your face, or just looking at you the wrong way. I've seen guys approach others triggered because they thought they were staring at him, ready to strike at the slightest provocation. Many people have very low thresholds of disrespect, as great as it may sound we cant go beating the shite out of people because they glanced at you the wrong way

Not barely disrespectful. Massively disrespectful. The therapist misses the point completely. Or blatantly refuses to accept the point.

In an odd way this reminds me of an alcohol class I had to go to. I was 19 and we were camping.. long before cell phones.. and my buddy dropped a log on his foot. It split his foot in 2 like a ostrich foot. Shattered and pouring blood. I had literally had 2 bartles and James wine coolers... as i was rushing him to the hospital, again there were no phones to call for help, I was pulled over for speeding.. not swerving. After the ambulance came for my buddy the cop said he smelled alc and had me blow a test.. I blew ..06.. buy since I was under 21 they took me to JAIL.. for saving my bros life and foot lol.. they made me do 3 months of alcohol classes.. I wasn't even a drinker. And I kept popping off that I shouldn't be in the group. Guys were talking about getting drunk every night and beating their family. Guys were talking about selling their blood once a week to get vodka money.. ect ect.. where all I did was have 2 coolers while camping and had no choice but to get my bud to a hospital before he bled to death.. the council kept saying we were all the same.. NO.. WE WERE NOT THE SAME..

I was riding my motorcycle home one night after the bar. I was drunker than shit. There was this bum lying in the middle of the road. He was going to be run over if left there so I pulled over knowing full well that this action would result in an interaction with the police at some time. I stopped anyway. I helped the guy out of the road shortly after the Cops showed up. They asked me what was going on, by this time there was a crowd and what not. Right before I got back on my bike one of the Cops asked me if I wanted him to follow me home to make sure I was ok. At that point I knew they could smell the booze. I said no thanks and got on my bike. They did nothing. If they had taken me to jail I still would have been ok with my decision to stop and help that man. Doing the right thing sometimes results in you getting screwed. But that does not change the fact that It was the right thing todo.

I wonder if having to invest more sheer effort into ending a life hand-to-hand if you ever had beef with anyone, lent itself to a greater mutual respect? These days you can't even punch a guy in a dark alley without being recorded from 30 angles, so how much more careful were people in picking their fights or who they dished bullshit out to when it could come down to a dark, bludgeoning, rock-beating brawl in the dirt on the outskirts of the village, where nobody will be coming to rescue you but the actual man-eating wolves?

@@glennwatson3313 agreed. On various occasions, Ray beats people for minor infractions. He is not a role model. Yes, he does make some reasonable points and has a code of sorts, but the guy can't get through life in a healthy way. The counsellor is obviously a bit of a knob, but he's right in that you can't assault everyone who supposedly disrespects you (especially when a lot of the so-called 'disrespect' goes both ways, or is just a matter of opinion). The young guy he batters here had it coming, but the point is that this is Ray's normal way of dealing with problems, and it doesn't work for him. (SPOILERS) The fact that he puts his girlfriend's brother through a plate glass window at a family gathering is the case in point. Was the guy being a knob? Obviously yes, he was. However, the fact he couldn't take a deep breath and walk away is telling. The moment there's any kind of disagreement (no matter how petty) Ray goes to guns. He knows no other way, and it ruins his life.

[@Jomchen]

@@TheGosgosh This is the worst reading of this scene I've seen, and there are some pretty interesting takes in this comment section. You've somehow turned an inedadequate and underfunded counselling session into the counsellor "bullying" his group into submission because he joked about Ray's belief that he's doing society a favour by assaulting people he considers "assholes". Just an astonishingly wrong oversimplification of an otherwise fantastic and meaningful scene you would expect from a literal teenager.

[@CleetusGlobin]

@Jomchen, are we looking at the same scene? He is,subtly attempting to bully Ray into submission. He makes assumptions about the situation Ray describes: "youths," assuming Ray assaulted the men at the slightest offense (the ice cream), "you did it with your daughter standing there," etc. Every question is an attempt to make Ray seem like the bad guy. When Ray refuses to let the counselor mold the narrative, the counselor can only make a snide remark to recover his failed moral appeal. You can really tell which people actually understand reality when discussing this show. Immoral people will call Ray an antihero or a villain protagonist. Those with wisdom understand that, although Ray isn't perfect, he is mostly a hero who operates outside of the law only as a result of a government that is filled with moral busybodies.

It's not true, though. In many cases Ray is 'right' in that he's dealing with bad guys who deserve their comeuppance and don't respond to anything else, but in other cases (for example when Ray gets in an argument with the guy crossing the road and goes to prison for it) it's a two-way thing. Ray is not blameless, but he thinks his logic is perfect and anyone disagreeing in a heated moment deserves violence. In heated situations, it's so easy to get the wrong end of the stick, overreact or do something you later regret. Ray's way of dealing with things through violence sabotages his life and relationships.

You are right. In my first year of high school, I was literally the 125 pound shrimp. Then I got tall, so I was a skinny tall dude. I got picked on all the time. Later in high school, I bulked. up, not alot, but enough to be able to defend myself. I got in fights, still, all the time. And it amazed me...I would try to talk my way out of a situation, and still get shoved, and then would roll my eyes and ok... I would hit the guy. Then he would stop bullying me. It's as if people don't understand something unless they get hurt. Handsome, popular guys with good grades would do it too, not just the class scum. And I would have to hit them in the face for them to finally get it. Finally in my senior year people laid off, but I spent most of my junior year hitting people. I think I hit probably 25 guys in my junior year. How totally screwed up is that?

Watch it! Mr Inbetween They're short episodes so you'll likely binge it. One of the best Aussie series ever

[@joshhoward4256]

I agree with the "respect me, and I respect you" idea in theory. The problem with this in practice, is that "Respect" has multiple meanings that get interchanged in the same sentence. Often those that say this phrase are actually saying "show deference to me as a superior and I will afford you status as a human being." If everyone meant it and implemented it the way Ray does here, the world would be a better place.

[@Wolf-ln1ml]

Another problem is that he went for a completely disproportional response to the "disrespect". He escalated the situation. When he's the one "in power", sure, he can do that - but the _second_ he isn't, he should very quickly see why a disproportional response is a terrible thing. Imagine him hitting someone for "disrespecting" him - and the other person retaliates by killing his daughter. In _their_ eyes, it'd be exactly as justified as him hitting the guy, they just escalated one step further.

[@LunaForrestB05]

⁠@@Wolf-ln1mlSo how is killing an innocent 8 year old girl who has done nothing wrong justified? Is this person autistic?

[@defragsbin]

I agree with your first few sentences. There's a reason we have laws and courts. So many guys think they have to assert themselves, and small issues are escalated into big ones. The bit where Ray batters the guy at the crossing is a good example of this. Both parties made mistakes and went too far, but Ray casually beats the guy over a minor altercation. The guy who ends up on the deck would likely say the same thing as Ray here: he felt disrespected and like he was in the right. We're all human. You can't always be in the right. Ray's attitude means there's no room for error.

The lady to scared to say something, so I step in and say “Excuse me this lady was next” Generally the bloke backs down but I’d he doesn’t I push back and say “ How about being a gentleman” as a ex veteran respect is everything most assholes when challenged are cowards and back down . If not happy to take to the next level. Ps as I get older I have less tolerance for unsocial behaviour. I guess I’m becoming a crump old man. 😅

[@stevelangstroth5833]

I have never seen people showing quiet respect for each other as I have at a gun show. Guns everywhere and not a single foul word used, or a temper lost. Go to any church and you won't find that level of mutual respect and politeness.

[@thomasborger6548]

Might be a good idea to give (and train) all the good guys and gals guns, eh?

[@usualsuspect7222]

Who's the good guys..so guns provide mutual respect eh?...meh ..think it makes cowards believe they are brave

[@redclayscholar620]

But then you look at the overpriced junk every Fudd there is peddling and you feel pretty disrespected. $1.95 a round for .243? Get outta here!

[@el34glo59]

Lol ffs. And that means what? You're trying to say of the entire world was filled with guns on a daily basis, we'd all be respectful, because a gun show is respectful? I'm pro gun but that's an absolutely ridiculous take.

[@usualsuspect7222]

@what projecting my dic...Dr Suess....missed the whole point of the clip we were commenting on,,no responsibility or accountability by folks anymore and then you read gun crap as a solution to that end... just irritated for simple lack of courage in a person's convictions a gun wasn't necessary to achieve justice was the point,,if you needed the gun to make you righteous ....simply screams scared ...now you went fishing and got me...you gonna need a bigger boat son

[@Unclegrimm3937]

I have never put hands on someone who didn't put hands on me or someone else first. Once you cross that line, I have no issue defending myself or someone else.

[@somedude7800]

This right here is the crux of humanity!

[@robertadrianwilliamcannon7396]

We need more people like this in the world.. Because he's not wrong there are alot of assholes..

[@TheDucey1]

I love this, its great! we need more rays

[@nenad.bakalovic8957]

totally agree.. respect me I respect you, otherwise we have a problem

[@lawsonfan5797]

That look @2:39 fairly screams "did you hear what I just said about respect?"

[@el34glo59]

Exactly

[@mikespearwood3914]

He's visualising knocking his head off the way Arnie did to the annoying used car salesman (who was trying to cheat with his wife) in True Lies.

[@jakelightford3740]

Right

[@geinikan1kan]

Lovely show. It has that dry punch you in the gut Aussie humor.

[@veo16]

2:01 this comes full circle in the jail episode where ray tries to teach his roommate not to disrespect others inside.

[@mcbama6848]

Lol that therapist needs a bashing lol 😂

[@thinkpadBentnoseTheBlind]

I love this ! he just finished telling him he likes to punch and perhaps punish assholes and he is being one. Epic!!

[@thinkforyourself2109]

Ray's logic is solid. In a later exchange between him and the group counselor Ray (again) wins the debate by pointing to a case of justifiable violence: WWII.

[@danoi99]

Damn that was a good series. Made me laugh, made me cry. When he helped his brother.......phew, tough to watch.

[@mikeincanada_]

I ended up watching it three times in a month. That episode with his bro was something else for sure.

[@MrBendylaw]

"How many therapists have you assaulted?" "I don't answer questions." And I'm done commenting on Inbetween videos, it feels too easy. Great show, fantastic dialogue. The reality of its unreality is a problem.

[@JP-se3ti]

I'm 72, grew up in Liverpool, Green Valley area, South west Sydney, the pubs in the area were bloodhouses, but respect would get you through, it did mean though that you had to learn to fight. Dickheads and idiots didn't last long, ahh the good ol' days, when men were men and women? They were real women.

[@jaycee4504]

Ray helping Society... He was a soldier ~ all enemies foreign and domestic ,,, he meant it .. Thank You Ray ;)

[@thernandez7250]

Absolutely 100% right. With consequences, there would be less a-holes.

[@johnwilson783]

We need more Mr Inbetweens it's that simple

[@TheBatugan77]

He's right. Twenties is not youths. We've turned people into candy-asses.

[@judsonkr]

Ray Shoesmith and Arya Stark. Two all time best TV Show Characters. Mr. Inbetween, one of THE best shows ever. The dialogue alone makes it brilliant.

[@-BuddyGuy]

You've got a lot of shit stewing in your head from your youth that you haven't confronted if those are your favourite two characters. Somebody fucked you good. If you make progress with your anger issues Tyrion should be your favourite character.

[@WillT25]

Such mad respect for the main character who also wrote the series. Driving a taxi probably given 1000 no’s. Great series with an oddly morale perspective considering. I’m looking forward to any future Scott Ryan project. 🎉

[@George-iq6iv]

Great show great actor ! He is so right for the part . The writing and dialogue is superb . He is so full of toxic masculinity and I love it ! Real men want to be like him !

[@brmbkl]

toxic masculinity is something else entirely. Ray isn't frustrated, or taking his shortcomings out on the less powerful...

[@jeffyfielding3360]

Arguably the greatest show I have ever watched. Absolutely spot on in so many ways. Brilliantly written and brilliantly acted. Hope to see more from Scott Ryan. What a gem.

[@Malcolm-r2q]

I just found out about this show. How great.

[@hamiltoncork5778]

In the past there was an unspoken rule, if you cross the line, touch someone you don't know without their permission there were consequences (as he says here) but now society tells you that self defense, asking for mutual respect and defending those boundaries is wrong. And guess what happened, a generation of people were brought up thinking they can do whatever they want. That has had the consequence of destroying the 'society' it purported to protect, but the truth is men protect society, real men. It has always been the case and always will be. If you barge into someone's child, then disrespect them by swearing profusely at them you deserve a slap. No one will ever convince me that is not just. Yet if you respond that way you're liable to get arrested, when did the world get like this?

[@brmbkl]

because of people that like boxes. and their own "rights".

[@hamiltoncork5778]

@@brmbkl the word rights has got to be the most misused and misunderstood terms of the 21st century

[@michaelward2869]

Yeah bro as noone has the right to touch anyone you know something you me arnt the problem it's these prick that let them get the fuck away with it and it is public are genaurly good if your hearts in the right place someone jyst you know fucken oth someone bigger comes along and usually that'll be the end of it doung the right thing take no sides just step in say something to snap them outta it then yeah if it keeps going then the person doing wrong or said something made mistake work it out and all sorted none hurt rather have a beer with others around hey fuck that fighting , no good . Hey cheers, Ray. I'd have a beer with you anytime .

[@mbradley274]

Can you imagine how much happier the world would be if people were respectful?

[@foreverendeavor5751]

The man speaks truth.

[@HelioWakasugui]

I believe I'm not the only one who wanted to punch the therapist, LOL

[@johnblecha7434]

Need more Ray's in society! Lots more!

[@mikespearwood3914]

Hitmen? 😆

[@richardclatworthy6381]

This is Ray’s best scene and it’s so true. There’s an old saying that they’re acting like they never been punched in the face….

[@kevinroon7299]

The questioner is pushing buttons. Congrats to the dude for maintaining his cool.

[@gq2384]

No Lies Detected. You have to deal with the assholes to make them think twice and thrice for a " next " time they try to pull their shit on someone. Truly a service to society indeed.

[@jamesweidman7462]

I love this scene. We need a bunch more guys like Ray

[@aitp]

I live amongst a culture where people don't confront others, even if they do the wrong thing, try and scam you, whatever, because their culture is one where its bad to have someone loose face. I'm the other way, if you let them continue, they keep doing it. I'm happy for someone to loose face. Don't want to loose face, then don't do the wrong thing!

[@JACKnJESUS]

He says he is all about respect...and his own therapist...isn't listening to him. The therapist disrespects him at the end.

[@iggysfriend4431]

I love when Ray says "They were being arseholes." He sums it up perfectly.

[@shanesmith6941]

I kept hoping Ray would beat the shit out that guy but he never did.

[@DEPRETION.]

The fact the therapist had no respect for ray is just disgusting.

[@WillT25]

He made sure bullies or child kidnappers receive what society had failed to provide in consequences. Class act. ❤

[@essemmetv]

Interesting trivia: the social worker leading the group meeting is none other than genius director David Michod (Animal Kingdom, The Rover).

[@johnsmith-ty5jp]

Ray is right. That's how you deal with those people, the only way they understand. If someone is bullying you they won't stop until they're lying in the gutter. I don't like hitting people either. The truth is, it hurts. Punching someone hurts quite a bit actually, but I've done it and I never felt bad.

[@Letsgetbacktobasics2024]

I agree 100% with his explanations. If there were truly more consequences for bad behaviors there would be far fewer bad behaviors. Fairly simple cause and effect. Too many Apologists are simply cowards dressed as elites.

[@marcrichardson6159]

This is a perfect example of the only sane man in the room being laughed at. Modern society has pitfalls and this is honestly one of them. Its a breeding ground for A55h0l35

[@greg0050]

"You're welcome" was on the tip of his tongue. You could feel it, and he's right. He should feel welcome for what service Ray is rendering.

[@crazymasina8524]

It's always the people that indirectly enjoy the fruits of others labors that sit there and take for granted the world that is provided for them.
