With these opposing characteristics, Jackson became the center of many debates and conflicts, hero or villain? A villain. He was a vile president with a hot temper and a craving to expand, no matter what the cost; his presidency alone was atrocious, with the Panic of 1837 and him being the cause of the Trail of Tears.

It projects a patriarchy of elite white men who repress the majority of the population through sexist and racist policies. In this puritanical state, Commanders are political leaders and lawmakers who support and contribute to the rise of Gilead.
