sometimes this happens with us too, right?
like right wingers will try making a caricature of a communist who's like "I'm trans and gay and I want to guillotine rich people" and we're like yes. But also right wingers don't know how to be funny, so this doesn't compare exactly
The main difference I've seen is right wingers think it's based, unaware they're being made fun off. Leftists know they're being made fun of and go "nah, this is still based"
well for one thing I was thinking of all the fascist propaganda that portrays communists as cool skeletons with big sickles
I always love being slightly behind these new world wide web internet meme images
Basically leaving things only to the canon. Instead of Death oh the Author, it's The Author is a Lich.
It's an over dependence on lore instead of reading into allegory or interpretations outside of the conscious scope of the creators/writers.
X-Men are just mutants and real people, not characters designed to explore marginalization.
It's media illiteracy.
That was my second thought. My first thought was a gay with a pretty severe degradation kink.
At first I thought you were referring to the X-Men and that kinda is the appeal of the X-Men. If you're gay and have a degradation kink, X-Men is the comic for you.
