So, right. I literally just saw the boys season 3 come out on prime video. I remember having a cool discussion with this group earlier when we discussed how what Homelander symbolized, how AOC was in the story fictitiously, that kind of stuff. Was just wondering if anyone would take the bait (so to speak) again

      They literally spell out the fact the CIA sold crack to black neighborhoods and it is in no way sympathetic to the agency, just sort of to that one character, who is also clearly living in depressed self-imposed exile.

        I find it weird that they immediately have Mallory morally condemn Butcher right after she admits to having sold crack to the black community, as if we're supposed to take it seriously

        This is true, and also all the scenes in Nicaragua portray Mallory as the ultimate girlboss, who cares about "her men" even when the dumb supes come and mess it up

          I mean, yeah, a CIA operative cares about their men when they are fighting a dirty war while in enemy territory and wouldn't want any friendly fire. Seems reasonable.
