The corrupt senior officers can be seen as representations of Duterte and former Philippine National Police Chief Ronald "Bato" dela Rosa, while the angry residents of Gracia ni Maria are widely believed to be representations of Duterte's die-hard supporters, who have been known to [[UsefulNotes/MisplacedNationalism cyberbully and dogpile critics of his administration]], among other overzealous acts of support for the controversial leader.
