(ie they're fashionable and trendy like an idealized Manhatten) in that sense, they're probably easier to see as liberal, but almost no mention of the actual politics were made in either the book or the film. <br /><br />Interestingly District 13 is a very conservative society (they're pretty much a military with starvation the punishment for anyone who doesn't do their assigned job).blutonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24904037.post-72540468525834978962012-03-26T12:13:00.918-03:002012-03-26T12:13:00.918-03:00I haven't seen the movie, but I can say that t...I haven't seen the movie, but I can say that there is probably some projecting involved in your little discussion group. ;)<br /><br />Liberals look at it, sees a violent "bread & circuses" society ruled by an comfortable elite, and automatically say: "A-ha!
