* EvilVirtues: In-universe, Gerry Conway displays values such as temperance, respect, intellect, kindness towards his loved ones, culture and nationalism, albeit all in a very warped way. Nate himself is distressed over his ambivalent feelings towards this man who could have been a formidable person, but wilfully espoused odious beliefs and isn't going to back down on them.
* FamilyValuesVillain: Gerry Conway is a loving father and husband who disapproves of alcohol, swearing and wants what he thinks his best for his family. Unfortunately what he thinks is best is the extermination of non-whites in the United States.

** Andrew Blackwell and his militia collaborate with outspoken antisemists and espouse several of their talking points, yet also claim to be the descendants of the Lost Tribes of Israel. The irony isn't lost on Vince.

* PragmaticVillainy: Nate paints his cover as one to get suspicion off of his back. In one case, he excuses wearing Levi's because it was a gift from his brother as a gift for returning from Iraq and it doesn't matter in the long run what brand he wears or what his brother thinks about white supremacy, and in another case, he narrowly prevents his "friend" from attacking an interracial couple by pointing out that it would be a rookie move to do so in a very public and surveillance-heavy area where they would be easily identified and tracked down, ruining their chances of doing a race war.

However, as Nate struggles with the fact that he spent a lot of time and faced great personal risk for nothing, he has the luck to stumble across the actual terrorists, allowing the movie to get an exciting climax and satisfying ending.]]
