i genuinely think that the way this admin is treating Canada will be looked back on as of the most shameful chapters of modern US history far too many people are laughing it off as unserious but the reality is that they’re spitting in the face of our closest ally for no reason

Apart from Snyder dumbing it down, the Watchmen film really went wrong in the casting of Adrian Veidt. Every other character was pretty bang-on.
