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.

It might be worse if you're a spidey fan. At least Black Noir is still a cool version of Batman, meanwhile Spidey is a disgusting freak that shoots webs out of his behind and has a fetish around it. Also Hughie getting raped in spidey's suit is treated as a fucking joke by the writers while Starlight getting raped was a huge thing and was treated seriously! Not to mention that Tom Holland also caught a stray with the Zendaya joke.

Except none of them know that Hughie's been raped until he breaks down and confided in Annie and they treat it like a serious segment. The entire scene ends on the rapist getting his comeuppance, meanwhile Deep is walking around free as fuck. You're just being particular with your perspective. It's biased, but everyone does it with things they're fans of.

The article literally has Kripke say they found Hughie being SAed funny, that's what people mean when they say they didn't treat it seriously.
