      No absolutely they would be soyfacing about Capt America, Iron Man or Natasha turning a Russian agent into a paraplegic but this is like a “no u” as if Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh, Crowder, don’t look just like this guy.

      Maybe some weird ones, but I don’t think people in real life would react to real marvel heroes the way they do when they’re fictional. It would be equivalent to being a Lockheed Martin fanboy.

        Conservatives root for American Sniper.

        Liberals root for American Intelligence Operatives saying "Take the shot" on the other end of the radio.

        Strongly disagree. The boys is 100% dead on in how it shows the overlap between celebrity culture and corporations/military in the Superhero era. Elon Musk built his entire fraud persona around cosplaying as real life Tony Stark and he still to this day has fanboys ready and willing to fellate him. Just imagine if he had an actual Ironman suit. Lockheed Martin doesn't have that kind of figure head, largely cause they don't need to.

        Those 100% exist. Liberals are fucking weird.

              You know as well as I do that there’s a difference between hooting 4chan chuds calling for the execution of minorities and liberals who thought Obama was a good president and have a Ruth Bader Ginsburg sticker on their laptop

                I think a lot of the time the difference lies more in the persona they choose to adopt than the underlying values

                There is a difference between bad republican liberals that openly want to kill the poor and the liberal democrats who would prefer it happen out of sight out of mind via institutional mechanisms yes. They are still all liberals though.

            You are sadly, sadly mistaken.

            Connect with some random raytheon and lockheed guys on linkedin and have your brain melted.
