"The Watchmen" Red Pill or Projection???

Re-watched "The Watchmen" with wider eyes open now….Was this a White Hat production, with not so subtle themes, or Black Hat projection?

Side note food for thought…Dr. Manhattan quotes from the novel……

"There is no "now" as now is fine line between the past and the future, and the future is happening now."……………….

Dr. Manhattan's view on causality.

"I like it very much. Its atomic structure is a perfect grid, like a checker board."………………………….

Dr. Manhattan's thanks for a gold ring from his girlfriend.

Dr. Manhattan's wonders why humans can't predict future - ""There is no future. There is no past…Time is simultaneous, an intricately structured jewel that humans insist on viewing one edge at a time, when the whole design is visible in every facet."
