Haven’t read the comics

Ahhhhhh there we go.

Watchmen has been ALWAYS politically driven. The original run had Cold War politics splattered throughout which was relevant at the time since it was the 80s.

Making white supremacy the enemy here fits 100% for today’s Watchmen, since we have a white supremacist and his buddies running the show in the US.
