American are illiterate and politically incoherent, so I understand the pervasive media illiteracy.
but this show was making its points with a sledgehammer since the first moments and does not let up.
this guy is the equivalent of a dude staring at a billboard that has a picture of his driver’s license with “Kyle Jenkins, You Are A Dumbass” for 4 years before furrowing his brow and saying, “I think this sign is insulting me.”
it’s really hard for me to watch all the body horror in that show, but the little details of anti-union/pro-capital propaganda in the world, and the constant wiping of the ass on culture war tropes cracks me up. the ice skating musical in this latest season was magnificent.
Homelander dates a literal Nazi, figures out she’s a Nazi and is totally cool with it. It’s never been a subtle show.
