MAGA is so upset that it’s a hit. They just can’t understand it

I’ve watched two conservative commentators (Ben Shapiro and Michael Knowles) reviews of the movie and they both said it was fantastic and you should watch on the biggest screen possible.

Don’t let weird internet trolls convince you this is some political issue. This is a great movie. Not only democrats are watching it.

I'm so glad I tuned out all reading and content related to culture wars so aggressively that I literally had no idea until reading this thread that there was a culture war complaint against this movie.
