In our world, there's at least a pretense that police have rules.
One of the major trends I'm keeping an eye on is the American right's growing disillusionment with the police. It's not that they're perceiving a lack of rules, precisely, but they are starting to understand that the police are not there to help them.
Very nice write up, btw. I rewatch the movie every couple of years, but I haven't reread the book in quite a while. After Covid the movie really lands differently.

And thanks! It's actually been a while since I've seen the movie, and I need to give it another watch.

I watched it once post Covid and many seemingly far-fetched plot points felt very familiar.
