Found this on a reddit-logo post about Superman: Red Son. Clicked on the person's profile to see more and surprise surprise their account is suspended.
The replies have some interesting takes too.

In particular you see it in Red Son Superman’s approach to justice and punishment, how he values a person’s utility to society far more than their free-will or personal beliefs. Arguably mind control is better than capital punishment and forced labor as practiced by stalin before him, but it still comes from the same desire to beat people into obedience as though they are misbehaved dogs.

    Unironically, would be rad if an alien superhuman crashed in the USSR and he grew up on a collective farm, and used his superpowers to get them to not stop at Berlin

      that happens in the comic but it's a goofy nonsense idea of what communism even is. Strangely though it's a very good depiction of what a Superman would actually be like, a complete megalomaniac with a god complex.

        So they made the communist Superman behave like he actual would if he was raised in the capitalist west?

        Always projection
