Universal Studios has canceled the release of its violent new R-rated massacre movie, “The Hunt,” for now, but the fact it even was made shows we’ve reached a dangerous new point in our political culture.
You have to wonder what twisted minds would dream up this liberal fantasy of jet-setting elites hunting down conservatives like vermin.
“They’re not human beings” the Hillary Swank character says at one point, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “The Hunt,” originally titled “Red State vs. Blue State,” is a sign of where irrational Trump hatred has taken us.

Yep - anyone who voted for or intends to vote for Trump is now a “White Nationalist/Supremacist”, no matter if they aren’t white at all.

She probably recognizes that the character she was playing was not meant to be admirable.
I understand the monstrous side of the film - we shouldn't be making movies about Americans hunting down and killing other Americans, and the net effect of the movie may be to increase the left's disdain for deplorables.
I understand that, but I also see that the liberals hunting down their political opponents for sport aren't meant to be positive characters, and anybody in a movie who says other people aren't human beings is certainly going to be a villain.
I also get that what an actor says in a movie doesn't necessarily represent his or her own opinions
But if Hillary Swank shows up at my door in hunting gear with a semi-automatic wanting to know where you are, I won't tell her.
