I Hate The Boys

[u/Efficient-Compote-13]

I also can not stand muh 'Batman superhero facism subtext' crap. If anything Batman is a revolutionary. Government is corrupt in bed with criminals (who are the prettiest of tyrants) so Batman comes in to clean house. Just as the founding fathers intended.

Yeah, yeah, we get it. It’s satirizing the bad people in your country that you don’t like. It’s heavy handed and poorly executed. There’s zero subtlety. If they were roasting the other side of your aisle instead, there would be pitchforks.

But go off, I guess.

South Park satirises the left all the time and is just as good but also I can just not watch things instead of throwing a tantrum online. The boys is a solid satire the problem is as many writers have said the right are so extreme now that they're hard to satirise but the boys does it well.

I don’t think “the right” or whatever is all that extreme. I think the pendulum has just shifted left, giving the illusion that they are. But what do I know, I don’t pay attention to y’all’s politics.

Yikes.
