An alternate timeline where Sinclair won the election in 1934, and then went on to be elected President in 1940, might be a good setting for a story/novel.
Its hard to see on a 1st glance but when it is pointed out you cannot unsee it. I interpreted it way off in my 1st viewing:
It actually does not take long to see it: the 1st person interviewed is a Sinclair Supporter who cant offer a rebuttal when pressed on his platform meanwhile the 2nd guy can give a detailed and reasobable response as to why he'd support Merriam.
And that continues throughout the vid: all the Merriam Supporters are well dressed and well spoken on policies, either in praising him or bashing Sinclair. Meanwhile Sinclair supporters are potrayed poorly. One is an old man with no teeth and crappy clothes (poor bashing), 2 of them are ethnic men in a car (implying them to be slickers as opposed to the really well dressed model minority supporting Merriam), one Sinclair supporter literally says The EPIC platformed worked so well in Russia (obvious redbaiting). Haight supporters are portrayed as a happy medium
Keep in mind it was only after I looked further into it that i learned the Movie industry was lined up behind Merriam and made reels like this to scare people.
The interpretation I originally had was just that placement on the socioeconomuc ladder entailed your candidate: turns out that was their plan, but in a way to hate the poor
