Incredibly sad that so many people in the imperial core can only learn about history when their superhero entertainment slop barely mentioned it. Watchmen had a scene showing the Tulsa massacre and millions of white people were like, "Wait, that happened?" I guess we need Spider Man 9 to have a scene detailing the Iran-Contra scandal for most people to realize that Reagan wasn't a great guy.
The boys talked about it recently and it has had a similar effect as the watchmen thing
Weirdly I actually did learn about Iran Contra in high school, and it was very much painted as a bad thing. But they didn't really go into detail about how the contrast were essentially death squads

The contra are specifically tools being used for a cover up in the show, there's a bit more to that scene coming later if you haven't watched it yet.
Being said its not like a show produced by commies or anything, the takes are cool for lib shit but it's not particularly nuanced
* me having heard about the Tulsa massacre 3 months before the trailer from a podcast * haha, wow, can't believe so many people don't know about this.
Well I mean unless you're specifically researching American historical atrocities it doesn't come up, schools leave out a lot of pertinent information
