When you’re rich and powerful and control half the county, you can hide your evilness behind a veneer of coolness because it’s cheap. Though liberals tend to fail at penetrating it at a meaningful level.
That's interesting. It's my favorite piece of literature, never read him as a Leftist.
I think we're supposed to ultimately overcome the temptation to identify with Satan. And since Milton was an anti-monarchist, I didn't think he meant to portay the potential political aspect negatively.
CHUDs are usually somewhat intelligent in this department and avoid this entirely, but the only thing I can think of is Amon from Korra. Although we should co-opt it for tongue-in-cheek reasons, we can do Big Brother from 1984.
Im now curious, is there an example of satire of leftwingers that we think is cool and try to co opt it?
I still love "attack and dethrone god"
Ohh thats a good one
There's that "Disfiguriing the face of man and woman" thing the Vatican put out years ago.
Also practice witchcraft, become lesbians, and murder their children.
Oh, and the meme where they show tons of apartments and are like "Is there anything more depressing than people not being homeless?"
Hell yeah witchcraft lesbians
Soviets from Command and Conquer: Red Alert
Only thing I can think of Zhukov in death of stalin is portrayed as a chad.
If you don't like Zhukov in the death of stalin you simply don't have a soul.
Yes but he’s also portrayed as someone who likes palace intrigue
Killmonger in Black Panther is clearly leftwing coded and cool as fuck

Maybe tau or genestealer cult from warhammer?
not satire, but all those news articles of "China's military is SKYROCKETING" which are really just cries for more funding, could qualify

It's not because they're intelligent, it's because their art production is exactly as brainless and surface-level as their art consumption.
