This part was really nice because it really shows Thomas doesn’t really care who you like or if you’re gay or not just if he goes against your family specially, back in the old days being gay you would’ve been killed for it
Thomas was nice to James not because he's not judgemental. He was one, actually, and a good one. Thomas knew from there that he could use James - which he did, with his first business with Solomons.
Exactly, he has collateral on James now that he knows he’s gay, that was illegal in the UK at the time and had a prison sentence, so Tommy knows that James won’t go to the cops because if he did, then Tommy would turn him in for being gay, it’s not that Tommy is so progressive it’s more that he knows James it will be a useful pawn
He also does not feel he’s a threat that could manipulate his sister romantically and serves as companionship for Ada. People are projecting their modern views. Tommy is just pragmatic
I love this Ada. She’s the only one that can get away with talking to Tommy the way she does making her quips and inserting her sly comments the way only a sister ever could.
Not just does Tommy not appear to hold any prejudice... But he also probably likes him mostly knowing there is a man in her life close by who is loyal to her and he knows doesn't want to be with her while she is far from him in the city
Yeah, he knows that this guy won’t go to the cops for any reason so he doesn’t have to worry about him. Back then it was illegal to be gay and now that Tommy knows this guy is gay, he has collateral on him.
Yeah he was from discriminated ethnicity, so he knows how it is. And he's also smart enough to not bring trauma on any person who hasn't done anything wrong
Yeah, he doesn’t hold any prejudice as long as you don’t f**k with his family. Best example is Jeremiah who he served with in the war and then Jeremiah’s son who both were involved as Peaky Blinders.
You're thinking about this way too much. Tommy was only friendly so he could use the guy as bait when he first dealt with Solomon. And not to mention Tommy's threat of going to the police about his sexuality if he didn't obey orders.
What's the difference between doing it like this and code-switching? I always thought it was cool and considerate how he does it, then I heard about code-switching and am not sure of the difference between the two?
You havent watched the show, have you? The "common courtersy" you saw is just one of Tommy's manipulation tactics he used on the guy so he can ask the guy for a very dangerous favor after this scene.
@@tanpham937no wrong. common courtesy is an inititial precursor that will get you far in life because it is malleable and highly adaptable in creating connections with people as it reserves a place to hold a counterpart in respectable esteem and so that is why you can bid to attempt to do almost anything, because many things in life needs you to request aid from others or the fear that others will hold you down, you can remove these by appealing to others from the start so they need not do these. that is what he meant. tommy used it to later use the boy for business relationship with solomons. but he could have picked another path by creating true friendship. The path of evil hitched on the groundwork laid by good. yet the common courtesy precursor was so strong the guy became unknowingly cooperative.
He stopped sizing her up the moment he realized he was helping taking care of her and was not interested in her. He didn't care if he was gay, he just respected him
No, it's one of his manipulation tactics, he pretended to be nice so he can use the gay guy for a dangerous job. Watch the show you'll see how horrible Tommy is.
@@tanpham937 he didn’t have to be nice he already had the stuff on him but what earned the respect was that this man stood up to him a rando who dressed like a ganster and had the confidence to just walk in like he owned the place but without his balls guiding him only his conscience thought
Her literal “what?, tommy doesn’t care “ He only cares when they make a dishonest women out of her other than he’s cool with whatever she’s doing with in her home
This is a good scene. He made a snap judgment, was wrong, twice, and reassed his opinion based on actions alone. Wish more shows had excellent writing and acting like this.

No, that’s literally not it at all, being gay was a criminal offense back then and when Ada told Tommy that James was gay she was giving Tommy blackmail fodder on James, Tommy knew right away that he could use James as a pawn which he does later on.
