So, Trump is the outsider, right? He wasn't a politician before he ran for president, he started dismissing career politicians, he went to war with corporations.

And the opposition just elected the establishment president, they protested FOR mega monopolistic corporate tech giant's right to protest. They are really raging FOR the machine...

... and yet all the 1 star reviews sound like they think they are being anti-establishment while they are backing the establishment.

To me, that is the same as shaving your head and pretending that you have always been punk.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't compare Trump to Lincoln... except the GOP at the time was the upstart party wasn't it? They ran on the single issue of dismantling the old establishment built on slavery...

... slavery doesn't exist any longer, at least not in the US, at least not legally.... but I can see the essence of the comparison. They were both anti-establishment and, in both cases, the establishment fought back with a vengeance.

And, even then, the South viewed themselves as rebels fighting against the establishment... as they struggled to preserve the establishment of slavery.

IDK, whatever, IMDB has a problem with censoring anything that isn't a far left review of things like this, so, I'll probably get rejected, and no one will ever read this.

But, in both cases, the establishment fought back, the establishment used violence. The only real difference is that the Civil War was a traditional war, and this uprising seems to be closer to Ireland's Troubles and just as partisan.
