It's bizarre how right-wingers have latched onto Harry Potter, just because JKR's transphobic. It's still a pretty leftist story...barring questionable things like Jewish goblins and house elves being happy slaves. >_>

In my country this cartoon is beloved under right wingers and Ive actually seen them discuss if it would get canceled by the woke left.

This cartoons main themes are:
  • antifascism
  • nazism
  • race mixing
  • abolishment of slavery and apartheid
  • constructed families
  • democracy
  • anti-monarchism
  • the ridiculousness of borders


Guess they just saw Hitler crow so they thought it was for them or something. Same with Wolfenstein II.

Nothing will be as trippy as them accusing Wolfenstein: New Blood of being woke for killing Nazis when killing Nazis was there from the series' start.

Yup, right-wingers have terrible media literacy.

They unironically think shit like Robocop represents conservative politics because the main character is a cop who brutally executes criminals. That's exactly how much "thought" they're willing to put into anything.

Eh by "no one" I meant the people defending the game. Feel like the rest of the post kinda sent that message home. Obviously the game was dog shit
Ah, yeah, I should have caught onto that. Sorry.

I remember when the right-wingers were decrying the franchise as Satanic. But I suppose a desire to outlaw the existence of a vulnerable minority group acquaints an asshole with strange bedfellows.

I follow a The Boys fan page on Facebook and it's amusing how whenever somebody points out the leftist politics in the show, you can always guarantee there will be several chuds in the thread trying to cope, going "Unlike you leftists, I don't need my entertainment to coddle my politics to enjoy it!"

Then they'll go off and literally have public meltdowns about pronouns in a video game. It's hilariously sad.

Conservatives think Homelander is a good guy.

I cant begin to understand how they possibly looked at his character and thought that.

From what I understand, they think it's a "bOtH sIdEs" thing where The Boys are as equally contemptible as Homelander. Funny enough, they tried to review bomb Season 3 because the show (allegedly) stopped being subtle about its politics. Nevermind the fact that S2 had Homelander in bed (literally) with an actual Nazi

Yes, it's fucking stupid.

Your "goddess" should stop posting like a moron if she doesn't want people to mistake her for your typical terminally online right winger.

One of the reasons Stephen Colbert stopped being a conservative parody was because people unironically believed he was real and followed him.

Anytime conservative politics are satired it happens. Its sadly hilarious.

And what were these opinions that made liberals think she was conservative, and vice versa?

His character was such an idiot, that conservatives lack of self awareness was pretty sad.

The game wasnt horrible. It wasnt amazing. It was simply good. Theres not some huge controversy I dunno why theyre working themselves all up like it was elden ring or something. The game was a good tie in game and a fun game but other better games came out this year and thats not even an insult to hogwarts legacy

They would 100% have whined about "wokism" if it wasn't for Rowling. They only care about "winning"

It's funny how no one ever really talks about the quality of this game. It's only the controversy. Even the people who think this game should be nominated for GotY only say so because it's somehow not "woke" and because it's based off of the first book they had read that wasn't written by Dr. Seuss.
Dr. Seuss was woke. Damn plain-bellied Sneeches imposing their agenda.

Homelander visibly grimaces when the nazi chick is talking about white genocide or whatever so acting like he's a nazi chud is a bit silly. "nazis are bad" is kind of a nothing message, if that's what makes something leftist then absolutely everything is leftist

lmao, probably because Homelander doesn't care about color, he cares about if someone's a supe or not, and more specifically, anyone not remotely as strong as he is.

Yep. A superiority complex born out of power, and not something stupid like skin color.
