    0.1% of people know it comes from mao so its safe to put in the movie as just a quote. People will go "wow cool quote" for a second and thats it. It means nothing to people that dont already know its from Mao and know Fred was a maoist so no one gets any idea about his actual political beliefs from that

      There's also another scene where they say "comrade mao" when talking about tactics or some shit (IDK exactly the context it was a year ago when I saw it).

      They don't hide that he's a leftist. Leftists can go in and realize it. Libs I know came out knowing it.

      Short of the actors starting out every scene quoting some famous communist and citing who it was by idk what more they could do without making the actual movie worse.
