Hyuk, hyuk, hyuk. Thanks for proving I don’t get much.
Fuck, you’re dense.

So if you dont agree with someone its a bot? Isnt it funny how people like you always go looking for the account so you attack the poster, instead of the post? Almost like hate is all you have. Which is real fucking sad, matey.
One to talk, matey.

Called out for what? Not a being someone so balls deep in the culture that I can I tell when the fucking algorithm is trying to get me to have really strong opinions about books I never read, movies I never watched, and games I never played? Unlike all you people, who think all this shit is just so fucking important that you think its ok to dehumanise a group of human beings. They do it, you do it. And you all make excuses for it. Hard fucking pass on being one of you lot, with hate so ingrained into your fucking soul.
Someone is really feeling the soapbox tonight

But, Superman is such a good, kind-hearted hero that it's basically impossible to be a good person and be anti-Superman.
Right, the main complaint is that he's so perfect it's boring.
And also that he has a pretty Western/USA centric sense of morality, which you think Western chauvinists like conservatives would eat right up.
Well, except he's a journalist and an immigrant and he fought against the kkk.

The greater good!

The new Fantastic Four movie didn’t have any political messaging in it that I could discern.

This is who Superman was. A literal (illegal) alien saving humans and, despite his full ability to completely take over the world, trying to be a good human. People can’t seem to handle that.
Just reinforces my belief that if Jesus were to arrive today they’d throw him in a cage and then disappear him to a prison on foreign soil with no trial.
So basically exactly what the story said the romans did.

Man, bit of a tangent, but even as a fast thought experiment, Thanos's idea was bad. Just his motivation was (debatably) good.
The problem is, the vast majority of species populations can easily double in a generation, given plentiful resources - and plentiful resources was what he was aiming for! Even if everything went exactly as he thought it would, he's just kicked the can down the road for one generation.
Exactly. The concept was sound, that resources were limited and something should be done about that, but the implementation needed so much work.
He imagined a solution for a very real problem, then went straight to making it happen without allowing the solution to undergo any scrutiny.
It's the only way! Clearly! People just don't see it like he does! Right?

Personally i like stories where he strugless more with how yo use his powers without becoming a despot.
Its so intresting tought experiment how much some one who is basically a god should intervine before it is too much.
At what point enforcing law becomes tyranny.

read about nazi germany it will be too late
in the US they are playing boiling the frog and soon they’ll escalate all the way, it will happen fast and violent
i’m not advocating violence, I’m saying we’re going to regret not having done so
paradox of tolerance should be required study

Dude, my entire family was in the resistance. My great grandfather hid jews on his farm, was captured, tortured and died in a concentration camp. My family smuggled crashed British pilots back to England and liquidated traitors (family in my mother's side) and blew up train tracks and communication lines (family on my father's side). When my grandfather died, we found a huge walk-in closet filled with gas masks, emergency food, machine guns and ammo, a chest filled with hand grenades. In The Netherlands. I've had a lot of history lessons in school. Plain history, political history, economic history. I know a lot about nazis, how they come to power, how they work.
I see what's happening right now. The lack of democratic and media resistance right now leads to them gaining power, which will lead us having to escalate to more violent and unlawful measures. I don't want it to come like that, that's why I'm politically fighting the far right in my country (and fighting fake news) and even though they have taken too much power in my eyes, they can't just do whatever the fuck they want.
The US, however, is a failed state and the democrats were way to passive (and also too right wing themselves). So there's no hope. Violence may be the only option. But just don't dehumanize your enemy, don't treat others how you don't want to be treated yourself.

Sit down/shut up... spoken like a true fascist. I mean, you all could have had Bernie in 2016, and the world would never know what a Trump presidency looks like. I wonder what happened there... In 2020, you could had any one of the over a dozen democratic nominees who had a free health care plan for the US. But you ended up with ONE old as fuck dude who wasnt interested in it. I wonder why.... And then in 2024, instead of keeping on going with the clearly far too fucking old dude, or binning him much earlier, he got kicked out, and some chick that was so not good enough that her healthcare plan was actually laughed at. And then just last December, when AOC was nailed on for a committee seat, that same fucking ghoul, came out of the shadows to make sure that some old as fuck guy with fucking cancer, got the seat instead. Thats right, the party you think is so fucking amazing, choose a 75 year old man with cancer, over a 35 year old woman in her prime... I wonder fucking why...
You lot, youre so fucking blinded by the rot that tells you what to do and what to think, that you never consider that its the whole system thats fucked, and youre all just being pitted against each other so you dont notice.
Oh, and the 75 year old man with cancer? Dead. 4 fucking months he lasted, and guess who STILL doesnt have the committee seat...
You sit the fuck down, and open your fucking eyes. All of you.
why don't you tell us how you really feel

And yet we see ourselves as smarter than those who came before us.

Why does the new superman look like such an idiot? The uniform also looks kinda weird and like he's wearing a red diaper over an I'll fitting suite.

Keep pleading for their respect when they have a gun to the back of your head. I'm sure that will work.
Tbh, I do agree with him that we shouldn't dehumanize. Fascists are humans, who deserve to be put down. There. Easy. No dehumanization, and you can still say that they deserve bullets blowing their brains out the back their heads.

Is he doing a great job? I thought he was just portraying himself.
Nah for real, if he's not a psychopath in real life, he must be a tremendous actor.
Anthony Starr is knocking it out of the park. Amazing performance.
-
I love his character, the actor really does a great job. But he's super evil. He's a great representation to the real world, as many people think there's no collateral damage too great to justify reaching their goal. Dehumanizing others, committing war crimes, hunger for power, forcing their beliefs onto others. I despise people like that.
But there are people who think otherwise: See this
I guess I wasn't trying to say there's absolutely no-one that idolises homelander. Some people watch Star Wars and want Darth Vader to win. There's not many of them, and social media tends to amplify the "edge lord" opinions.
Just that I thought sometimes pearl-clutchers can see people enjoying something that contains horrific aspects and interpret it as meaning those people support horrific things.
-
Being a human is very, very different than having humanity. People need to realize these are humans ... who willingly betray their humanity.
They are literally and directly enemies of humanity, who need to be treated as such.
Right - fight them! Resist them! But do not let them push you into being inhuman yourself.

then don’t act fucking surprised
not reading the rest of that wall, you should know better

How I really feel is that because of people like you, and every other culture war weirdo, is why we have Trump in the first place. You all got the America you deserve. Just a shame its other people paying the price for it. But Im sure you'll be OK, youve got your worthless internet points...

Bruh, Superman has always looked corny
