A24 is based out of Manhattan but your point still stands.

100% agreed, and made mention of this in my comment as well.  

The president:  
- Has a third term  
- Disbands the FBI  
- Kills US citizens via drone strikes (this isn't a dig at Obama or Hillary. This is a dig at Trump's drone strike rules that were released by Biden in 2021, Google it if you don't believe me.)
- In the opening scene says "Some are already calling it the greatest victory in the history of mankind" (sounds like someone Trying to mimic Trump's comedy and hyperbole)
- His soldiers (Jessi Plemons & crew) massacre people based on "what kind of American" they are  
 Casting of Ron Swanson for the role is deliberate and on the nose.  

I can understand saying that the movie isn't interested in politics, which I completely agree with--it is not the focal point. But to say that it is apolitical is A bunch of BS.

The enlightened centrists are out in forced trying to get people to watch the movie. And I'll admit it's not bad, The parallels didn't offend me but they were pretty obvious. They seem pretty obvious to Reddit and DU too.

What do the libs say? It's about Trump. What do conservatives say?? It's apolitical. LOL

Best theories I've heard were either two states that don't agree politically but come together against the existential threat from the loyalists or that Texas gets Californicated full of illegals and turns blue and they go merrily skipping off together from there.

If we forgive their student loans, that money can go back into the economy!

Btw I'm not saying the movies bad by any means. I'm just refuting the idea that it's apolitical. It isn't, It's just not the focal point. It's enough for them to cast aspersions , wink wink, you know who we're talking about here.

Any president seeking to disband The FBI would be good in most conservatives book. Here it's part of what makes him villainous. Oh gosh oh gee who could they possibly be referring to? Lol.

Really?

It was written, directed and produced by known leftists. Stars known leftists. The premise is a president who disputes an election and refuses to leave office causing a civil war, which ironically enough was what many of the leftists claimed Trump was going to do if he lost. Their greatest nightmare put onto film.

So yeah, leftist propaganda.

Their faction is never explained, in fact the specific point of the whole scene is that you don’t know who they are and they don’t know who they’re shooting at.

“They are trying to kill us. We are trying to kill them”.

I don’t think the pastel colors matter, at least not in the way you’re suggesting. There are smatterings of bright colors all over the movie, almost as if paint cans exploded or leaked. I’m not sure what that means but it’s all over the movie, and not just white/blue/pink.

Then a movie happens to drop right before election detailing how bad a civil war would be.

I personally think it’s weird that the supposed “democrat” dog whistles are being heard by….right wingers on GD?

Is there a word for when you become so anti-(thing) that you start seeing (thing) everywhere, even when it’s not there?

GD’ers are treating leftists like they’re the boogeyman. I assure you, they aren’t that smart, and you’re giving them too much credit.

I’m gonna go see the movie again just for the Hawaiian shirt scene and the last 15 minutes.

I’m convinced the trailer is a Rorschach test. GD sees ANTIFA propaganda. Reddit sees MAGA propaganda. The reviews I’ve seen, ironically, pretty consistently say that it’s a pretty apolitical film in general.

On YouTube I searched up reviews for the movie, and all of the super lefty channels are pissed that the movie “doesn’t take a stand” and “gives republicans points in some areas” and “is just a gun owner’s fantasy of societal collapse”.

Come to GD and it’s a leftists anti-trump hit piece and anyone who saw the movie and disagrees just isn’t smart enough to see the psyop, brooooooo.

Honestly the best part of this movie is how it makes brainlets tell on themselves lol
