Why is 
so invested in that new Nolan movie? I know our boy 
has said the film is supposed to be somewhat of a metaphor for Nolan "making the superhero film popular." But that shit sounds like some big-brained egotistical bullshit because it was always going to be popular no matter what. So is it some sort of modern white man's burden film and a justification for 
to use the bomb. I just want to know why people are so invested in a film?
The show is very messy,
spoiler
Thomas Shelby is sympathetic to the communist cause at the start, even though he dissaproves of his communist childhood friend marrying his sister. Later on he ends up doing a job for the Romanovs in England, and gets caught up in a scheme to send weapons to Tsarist remnants in Georgia. In a surprise twist you find out that the IRA priest who Thomas holds a grudge against is working for the Soviets as a plant/informant among the Whites. By the end of the story arc Thomas double-crosses the tsarists while also getting the priest working for the soviets assassinated.
Later on Thomas Shelby becomes a member of parliament and tries to coopt Oswald Moseley's British Union of Fascists, I don't really remember what happens in that story arc but I remember it being very "wait, wtf?"
It's almost like gangs running bookmaking operations and blinding random people with razer blades aren't great guys
I would even go so far as to say that men who kill for fun and who parasitically feed off the misery of the working poor by running rigged gambling games make for natural anti-communists
Hence why he runs in the Labor party!
Keir Starmer is a lot of things he isn't a gangster running illegal crooked gambling
