She said she found it “stifling” and called it an “un-American period”, saying she thought only “sanctioned behavior and speech was allowed”.

Bateman, who is Jason Bateman’s older sister, wrote: “Total intolerance became almost a religion and everyone’s professional and social lives were almost constantly under threat.

“Those who spoke otherwise were ruined as a warning to others. Their destruction was posted in the social media “town square” for all to see.

In an interview with The New York Post following her post, she said people had said to her “oh Justine, I didn’t know you were a Nazi”.

She said: “I’ve had friends tell me, ‘I love you, call me anytime, but I need to unfollow you’ or ‘I need to distance myself from you online, publicly “.

Bateman continued: “So the fact that people have to distance themselves from me… Look, I still love them, it’s good.

She told the outlet that she was in Washington DC on election night and watched Trump win battleground states to cement his return to the White House.

“I was surprised to physically feel relief in my body,” she added. “I didn’t realize how uncomfortable the last four years had been until I felt that balloon deflate.”

Bateman said she was glad the “woke era” was over, saying, “That era where you couldn’t question things is over.” This woke the police, it’s over.

While favoring Trump, she said The United States today that she wasn’t going to reveal who she actually voted for.

She told the outlet: “I’m not going to play that game. I’m not going to talk about how I’ve voted in my life. It’s not relevant. This is absolutely irrelevant.

“For me, all I’m doing is expressing that I feel that spiritually there has been a change, and I’m very excited about what’s going to happen. And frankly, reaffirming free speech is good for everyone.
