      Aflack and Damon self admit that the entire narrative is fiction past the opening setup. The events in the film don’t purport to be true.

      However, before having them burn down a building and murder a supervisor and a fed, the film sets up an establishing sequence based on real life events that clearly tie the two fictional characters to two real people.

      I get ACAB, but like, it’s kinda wild to make a film where you’re clearly representing real-life normal people, and then have them do a bunch of heinous stuff that they’re not even remotely accused of doing.
