      I remember talking to a lib coworker about that movie and I mentioned it was pretty awesome, and they said they didn’t like it. I figured it was one of the more usual critiques of it, but then they said they were offended by the evil racist villain being an Obama voter and turned it off.

      I cannot imagine being this sensitive and protective of democrats where you can’t even parse an anti-racist message because it isn’t aimed at the GOP but instead aimed at people like them. The lib thought the movie was rightwing and pro-Trump lmao.

      Liberals are used to didactic moral lessons in films agreeing with them and attacking their enemies. They didn’t know how to handle it when it criticizes them.
