Speaking of direction.
The way I looked at it was to draw a parallel line.
I looked at it trying to draw a line in modern times that would change the groups to something around today.
Now, the average age of reaching adulthood is higher now than then, so the major character of the film would be older.
I placed my parallel character into first year of college.
Now, what group in first year of college would have support from teachers, professors, and staff; what would this person go to in order to get my parallel direction?
There is one obvious movement that has support and even participation from non insignificant portions of academia.
Lets place our first year college student character as trying to be a "Good little Antifa Communist".
We could change his imaginary friend to George Soros.
We follow the misadventures as he taught to hate many different groups that the Antifa Communist hate.
Then he is faced with the knowledge that his mom has a young lady college student over as a guest at dinner that wore a MAGA hat. How does he deal with this?
He can go from this:
To someone able to accept other people and not be so illiberal like the vocal majority of the college students he knows.
Does the logic presented in that trailer really seem so bad?
