A country has been taken over by an evil militia that has all the guns. There is no electricity...so of course citizens revert to using swords as weapons (never mind that we have had gun powder longer than we have had electricity) The rebels are the good guys (liberals) who protect the original American flag. In one episode a cast member gets electricity just long enough to gaze longingly at the pictures of their family on their old iphone 5. Aside from the ridiculous Hollywood messaging...the show is pretty good and well produced. I like the show. How did you get the rebels are liberals?..I don't get that message at all. I'm still on the fence on the militia..there are clues thrown out they may actually be the good guys and they are not as they appear.
It's going to be interesting..
They referred to the resistance as liberals in the first episode. Now they are the ones with the secret US flag tattoos.
The militia was formed in the absence of the government and they want to disarm everyone else (comparing militia to nazis).
Still a good show though.
