Opined another: “There are other Timothy McVeighs out there who will be like ‘[this movie is] exactly what this country needs’ … The potential danger is that [right-wing] groups are not known for media literacy or nuance. And a psychotic gang of rednecks committing terrorism [in the film] to ‘own the libs’ might be obvious criticism to us, but might be interpreted as a role model to MAGA groups if not portrayed carefully.'”

There's people who watch It's Always Sunny and think the main characters are the "good guys" and we should root for them...

Side note:

Is the guy in the screenshot the Matt Damon look like who played a nazi in Breaking Bad?

Dudes in a lot and he's a pretty good actor.

Yeah, that's Jesse Plemons. He's married to Kirsten Dunst of all things. I just finished watching season 2 of Fargo with him and Dunst - both were amazing in it.

I always think of him as "Walmart Matt Damon".

EDIT: Fixed his last name

I was recently surprised seeing him in Like Mike as a bully. Great actor though
