    HBO's Watchmen series centers on world where police are hunted by white supremacists, unlike our world, where they have worked together. When I asked why he chose that framing, executive producer Damon Lindelof essentially said "lets talk after you've seen all the episodes." Ugh.pic.twitter.com/L5P9TP6eGf

        Replying to @Deggans

        I’m guessing because the show was made by out of touch Hollywood liberals too worried about their next juice fast to actually concern themselves with researching the many, many links between cops and white supremacist organizations

        I think a glowing blue naked god man is an easier sell than a world where the cops don’t side with white supremacists

        We live in a world where the cops ARE white supremacists, so the idea of them being separate entities strains suspension of disbelief past the breaking point.
