If you mean Susan, satire is a central theme in Nocturnal Animals, and the story shows Susan opposing the capitalist system as a young woman against her mother. It also seems that the movie-making of Nocturnal Animals needs too much self-awareness to be based on promoting capitalist and patriarchal ideology. Tom Ford was obviously very thoughtful, in executing the pace and structure of the film, which doesn't correlate with a director being motivated to promote hierarchy

I like dark movies with animals in them. I don't think they are trying to destroy the universe, but rather open a dimensional portal to a different one.

The Second World War ended, at least on this Earth.

It's a little-known fact that, back in 1939, the Soviets discovered evidence of a dimensional portal in eastern Poland. Thus, the Soviet leadership had no choice but to sign a non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany, and to invade eastern Poland purely to safeguard the portal, and find some way of closing it to protect all human life from whatever might wait on the other side. They discovered a huge conspiracy of Polish military officers trying to make contact with non-human forces on the other side. Thanks to documents that the Soviets discovered, those Polish officers were trying to sell out humanity in exchange for being the leaders of the survivors of that planned apocalypse, as human-alien hybrids. Those documents were later deviously destroyed by Polish agents and saboteurs. Stalin didn't want to, but people forced his hand into having thousands of those traitors of the human race quietly executed in the forests of Katyn.

Thanks to Stalin, humanity was literally saved that fateful day.
