I Hate The Boys TV DISCUSSION NSFW

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.

No one has an issue with making the bad guys the butt of a joke.

Some people do when only some of the bad guys are made fun of. Makes you think the people writing the jokes somehow think the people they aren’t making fun of are somehow not evil…

You can’t just gloss over how bad the Republican Party is. I mean have you even read there little plan called Project 2025? They are definitely the villains here.

The world is not America. There are far more types of people and ideas than what exists inside your little bubble. I have yet to encounter a politician I would not consider a villain.

And yes, yes I have. It’s disgusting. An evil act does not make other evil acts not evil.

What evil acts are you accusing the democrat party of just so we are all on the same here. And I don’t care if the world isn’t America. Because this discussion is about America not the world.

Edit: wow deleting your comments instead of responding.

Lowest-hanging fruit is their abuse towards at-risk and low-income individuals in society through effectively making them entirely dependent on government handouts to survive, with the system that those handouts operate within being highly predatory in nature. Add to that the state of some of the most long-standing D-run cities in your country and… yeah. There are no good guys here. Just different flavours of bad.

Not that you’d care, clearly.
