    Very quickly quashing any misunderstanding by explicitly calling a main character a “commie” in the first scene was a smart move.

    It’s written, knowing, that a good chunk of the audience is completely unable to differentiate satire from the message so it takes the important ones and makes them very clear before continuing with the fallout -style satrization.

    It sucks you have to do it, but it’s the responsible choice

      Yeah they went out of their way several times to make it very explicit that capitalism is the problem. It isn’t reform or revolution but at least they tried.
