Nailed it. I watched the trailer and could see it being tilted the way you say.

Not with all those "Mail in voters" in the streets

We’ll have to see how it goes.

Being Hollywood I could see that- the underlying message of “this is what will happen if DJT and the ultra extreme MAGA republicans get in power”.

Premise is that a corrupt administration in its third term has retired the Constitution.

TX and CA lead the western coalition, But is in alliance with Florida and Georgia, etc.

This could indeed be intended as fear mongering for a Trump presidency, but the irony is that the biden administration along with the FBI and security state are pretty much headed down that path. While saying all along that they respect the Constitution. But that it has limits. And is a malleable document, etc

Indeed.

Saw John Lovell say something that rang true the other day: "there are no blue states, only blue cities."

He's not wrong. Same shiit here in WA.

It’s Alex Garland so whatever you think the story is about, expect something different.

I’ve been a fan of his since his first book “The Beach” and met him and his literary agent at the time circa 1997. His stories aren’t straight forward typically.

Somewhere I’ve got signed copies of his first two books.

For those who say Cali - Texas...never happen. In war strongest, well funded groups often form the alliances.

We didn't end up partnered with Uncle Joe in WWII because he was our obvious ideological ally. And in the end, the war that began to protect Poland from an aggressive invader left Poland in the hands of an aggressive invader.
