I was thinking about the Boys recently, and how it does a really good job of showing how god awful society can be and the way in which they mock the right wing for their actions. It's a show that personally I really enjoy.
The problem is, the right wing don't understand satire and that this show isn't for them. And, personally, I feel it has emboldened a lot of people to act even more like dicks to others.
I've had conversations with people who don't realise Homelander isn't a hero. They can't understand why people don't like Homelander because he 'cares about America.' Not understanding that the only person he cares about is himself. The only thing he cares about is power, absolute power. He wants to take over America and make it in his own image.
He is a literal Nazi who was in cahoots with a literal Nazi (Stormfront).
But the right don't get this. They don't understand that the show is mocking them by showing how the undying love for Homelander, and the cult of personality, mimics the undying love that many of them have for Donald Trump and MAGA.
And this is ultimately the problem.
They seem to think this show is a how to guide for the right wing, when actually it's a 'this is what the world is coming to and it's scary.'
Whilst I love the Boys, I'm glad it's ending with Season 5. It will be interesting to see how the justify some of the things such as the concentration camps in the show.
Whilst Soldier Boy was an ass as well, worst thing they ever did was stop him from killing Homelander and his son.

(through gritted teeth) sometimes what's good for your mental health isn't another do nothing day or a little treat sometimes what's good for you is putting in some of the work. Not all of it at once but sometimes you have to finish that essay or at least take the next step or you have to clean your room or at least dust the shelves or you gotta do the laundry or at least put it all in the hamper and it's not fun and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks and it sucks but you have to because i read a post on the internet that told me that's what being nice to yourself is sometimes
the biggest missed opportunity of kara’s storyline is that it’s implied she had the same issue on the assembly line as short film kara did, meaning she was literally a deviant from day one. thats why it’s so easy for her to deviate, no matter how many times she’s reset she will always deviate because she was practically born a deviant. that genius david cage proceeded to do nothing with this but whatever
they call me "the guy who loves rocking back and forth" on account of how i love rocking back and forth
