I just wanted to hear the thoughts of some comrades. I feel like the whole show is a dagger pointed right at the heart of amerikkkan culture and capitalism.

I'm not the most savvy on catching all the themes or lib brain worms that find there way into media, but it speaks to my disdain for the culture. The cynical narcissism of the supes (and holy shit their sexual pathologies), the capitalizing on things from every angle, the military jingoism, the soulless use of humans for capital, the commentary on the rot at the heart of the beast, and the religious cults preying on people. It hits for me, and I hate it all at the same time.

Anyway, hope ya'll have a great Christmas or holiday, at least a break from the meat grinder.

Edit: Oh, and the fucking rainbow capitalism, it's pretty spot on.

It's sadly very lib. Extremely pro-CIA and the military. Also plot-wise it really starts to tread water in S3 IIRC with nothing major happening.

On the other hand, it was cool when they beat a nazi to death, so I'll still keep watching that garbage.

When do they beat a Nazi to death?

spoilerstormfront, or whatever that woman's name is, the one that has s*x with homelander, she is like a nazi from the old old times,

Oh, I didn't know they kill Stormfront, pretty cool, the character is horrible. The actress is a smoke show and plays an incredible sociopath. I find it pretty funny that she was once named Liberty which turned into Stormfront after a bunch of media laundering. I felt like that was a pretty funny nod.
