Didn't the same movie have Hawkgirl pulling a Pinochet on the bad guy though? Weren't they happy enough with that?
No you see because that guy was going to commit a genocide and these people like genocide

The only problem I have with this is that it's fiction.
If even Superman is being targeted, I don't even want to know what Captain America is up to these days. Is he already the poster boy for ICE?
I'm asking because this isn't fiction.
It would be pretty ironic if it was considering he socked Hitler in the jaw all those times

Same folks who couldn't handle a Bishop preaching mercy, either.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest, because the MAGA cultists somehow still see themselves as patriots.
Irony just doesn't seem to be their thing, otherwise they probably wouldn't have voted for the same rapist twice.

While I prefer to not get my political messaging from media productions, I'll take what I can get. When was expressing good moral values determined to be a bad thing again? I forget.

I mean, dirty cops love the Punisher, even though he's canonically killed quite a few of them.

About 2015?

When basic politeness started getting folks called out as "soy boys".

May 2015, it was in May 2015.

Fellas, is it gay to value your loved ones and oppose violence?

As far as media productions go, Clark's been consistently on the correct side of the social spectrum. Except for a few years during WW2.

And iirc hates it when cops use his image, as he only need to exist because cops are not upholding justice.

Have you seen The Boys? There's an actual fan club of Homelander. The series creators are trying to cut it down because it's the exact opposite of the message they try to bring. Vilans are people's new heroes now. Like Trump and Musk for example.

Sad but not unexpected.

You check the new Daredevil. There’s whole storyline about NYC cop who are way too into the Punisher.

I take it you never saw CA: The Winter Soldier. There's this whole bit about Steve and Nat getting hunted because they didn't bow to the fascists.

I liked the movie, but could have done without the messaging. I dislike political messaging in media even when I agree with the message, because I’m going to said media to escape reality. I don’t need a reminder about it, and I particularly don’t need some allegorical moral instruction, like I’m some sort of child.
I think there’s a place for political messaging in film—like when it’s the explicit purpose of said film—but I don’t like it being wedged in just anywhere.

In the early years of the war dude has an issue where he drags Hitler and Stalin before the League of Nations to stand trial from invading Poland.
The only thing I can think of was all the racism against the Japanese... Okay yeah that was bad but it was also segregation era America so that was the style at the time, you take what you can get.

He has outlined this explicitly multiple times in every appearance he’s ever made in anything. It takes a dangerously fucking stupid individual to use him as a symbol for police or justice. The creator of The Punisher has even outlined this in real life too many times to mention.
