But now I've seen multiple reviews, most likely from liberal critics, just ripping it apart and going the same angle this author did.

    I don't give two sh*ts about the movie. This type of reaction to it is why someone like Trump got elected in the first place. Yet people still can't help themselves and it could happen again.
    Given the current field of Democratic contenders I’m expecting it to happen again.

    That appears to be a ligit criticism though I would argue that the White working class has never had to deal with institutionalized bigotry and discrimination.

    I certainly understand their sense of insecurity and emasculation but a point and time comes where you have to get over that shit and man up.

    Having said that I’d challenge Mr. Yang to look around and ask himself “Who built this shit?”. It wasn’t him.

    You give Trump to much credit. He’s a savy opportunist for sure but he’s driven nothing but has successfully exploited an existing situation.

    It was meant as 'satire'.
    Since I have not seen the Movie, know anything about the Movie, or have any interest in the Movie.

    Not really. I'm kind of getting burned out on the Super Hero/ Villain genre.
