It amazes me how far leftist go to fit everything in their worldview 🤣.

So an evil mega corp is a stand in for the Republican party? Yet ironically the modern Democrats are far more supportive of mega corps and in fact receive far more money from them. 🤷‍♂️

I believe I also mentioned AOC as well; an evil megacorp is a stand in for the evils of capitalism; the AOC-like woman (the head exploder) and Homelander represent both parties (as do some other politicians sprinkled throughout the show), both equally corrupted by money, influence, and blackmail (via personal baggage, skeletons in closet, etc).

Funny how you ignored my reference to the AOC analogue...almost like you're trying to fit everything into your worldview 🤣

Also pretty sure Biden is the first president to stand with union members in a picket line, so...

That's just it though. I don't need entertainment to fit my worldview. I just want it to be entertaining. Allegory's should be done in a way that anyone can enjoy the content regardless of what side of the isle they are on.

Biden has received more money from Megacorps than Trump... gee I wonder why?

Fair enough, but "art imitates life" as they say, so I don't think it is really uncalled for entertainment (art) to take a stance. Unless you're a delicate snowflake that is easily upset and needs a safe space 😋

As for Biden, it's probably because he is a good bet; Trump can only get money from Russians. Corporations or foreign agents? You pick.

It doesn't make me uncomfortable it's just nauseating seeing it from the same viewpoint over and overall again. It's boring and that's why entertainment is failing

Still on the Russian conspiracy? Really? Biden is a globalist and it was Obama himself who allowed Blackrock and Vanguard to give social credit scores to corporations. It's why corps are rewarded with $$ for parroting progressive values. The Democrats need to fuse modern leftist ideology with modern corporate policy is a far more similar to Vaught than anything Republicans have done.

You all will come up with any excuse to justify it. " The Witcher" was a perfect example. Red head " Triss Merigold" meh let's just make her black and let's race swap everyone but Geralt why were at it. Who gives a shit if it was written by the Polish " ItS jUsT fIcTioNaL". It's for a modern audience! 🤣 last season flopped so hard they announced the next will be the last. All these creatively bankrupt losers can do is run multibillion dollar IP's right into the ground.

Black Triss was also in the only highly received seasons (S1), and she looked even more black in that season lol (before the hair change). So uhh...I don't think that's why it went to shit tbh.

By the last season they race swapped half the cast and it was later announced the show would be non renewed after only one more season.

I don't think this is why the quality dropped, and I can probably cite most Metacritic critics also never mentioning such a thing. We have counter examples shows with mass race and sex swapping doing quite well.

No normal person cares about that, the big determining factor is script and acting. Not skin tone.

The casting was atrocious, outside of Henry Cavil and Ciri. Most metacritics wouldn't dare mention it because they would be instantly canceled by leftist shill media. No we really don't. Most of the time it fails miserably. It usually works when the core audience of the source material is different to the audience that enjoys the adaptation but in most cases they can't attract enough of a new audience to make them successful.

Normal people often do care about authenticity. Most entertainment projects that are infested with DEI quotas are easily seen a mile away and it seems a large portion of the general public is starting to recognize it.

Your first link is from "Forbes" Paul Tassi who is a leftist shill who made a story about a subreddit.

Unless the images and posts were AI generated, it proves rpumper was correct.

Most right wingers don't see Homelander as a hero. Making a story about a few people posting in a sub reddit doesn't change that.

Black triss was barely in the first season. By the last season they race swapped half the cast and it was later announced the show would be non renewed after only one more season. Leftist love diverse mid evil fantasy. Or maybe they don't since every show that panders to them fails shortly after.

one of the forums crazy leftist

Not good, a pure ad-hominem post. Also, I'm center left.

This specific issue just isn't serious or political enough for an opposing position to be seen as "crazy" left. It's fluff side lore for an unreleased TV show from writers who always retcon this universe. No well adjusted adult would get upset at this, hell most will never even know it happened. Small lore changes don't break quality, it's when you completely alter the theme and/or atmosphere, and inject bad writing and/or acting.

Dunno, maybe I'm becoming too much of a "normie" for these small things to register remotely out of the "what kind of loser gives a crap about this bullshit?" category these days lol.

[Fictitious Ad-Hominems removed]

You will constantly side with any group that race swaps/gender swaps etc... for the sole purpose of DEI.

False, as someone strictly on the center-left I have not always sided with these swaps. But I do give them a chance, and just as long as it doesn't negatively effect the medium. Like in "The Boys" or the original Avengers.

For example, what kind of well adjusted adult would be upset at a black Nick Fury? That's deranged behavior.

Your posting history proves otherwise.

Right wingers would just assume that the show/movie is supporting their views, you know, just like what they thought about Starship Troopers (instead of mocking them) or how they did not understand that Homelander is the bad guy.

Wtf are you talking about?

Right-Wing ‘The Boys’ Fans Grapple With Homelander Being A Villain, Confusing Everyone (forbes.com)

Imagine linking Paul Tassi as a credible source 🤣🤣.

I used the first link that provided photo evidence. Was it AI generated?

Your first link is from "Forbes" Paul Tassi who is a leftist shill who made a story about a subreddit.

It was pretty clear up to a certain point that Vought would have cast aside Homelander if they needed to and put someone else there. Homelander comes and goes, Vought's evil stays.

Only problem is that it's just what Vought is telling Homelander, because the guy only cares about his fanboy numbers. The moment he (trump) understands that he does not need Vought (the Republican party) to retain his popularity with a certain demographic (MAGA), Vought is done for. What can they do to Homelander physically to stop him from destroying the organization?

Just like there is no Vought without Homelander at this point (not the other way round), there is not Republican party without trump. In both the fictional and IRL cases, the creation is now more powerful than the creators.

Oooooooooooh shit you're right, I totally missed that.

....scary.

Though the last thing Homelander did is a a literal "I could kill someone on main street and they'd all applaud me" iirc, so it's very true.

It amazes me how far leftist go to fit everything in their worldview 🤣.

Anyone with a basic knowledge of financial's knows this isn't great news. They only posted an increase because they are comparing the growth to years before they bought the largest third party publisher. Looking at this trend they will be posting negative growth every year after this unless they do something drastic to change the companies they own. It also shows their strategy wasn't working and buying up the industry was all they could do to save face.

and anyone with basic knowledge knows they bought ABK to increase revenue.. 😐

and *gasp*, it worked..

we'll have to wait and see how things look next year.. but anything before that, is just damage controlling the fact that Xbox content and services is up 62% and Xbox gaming revenue is up 51%..

It showed their strategy waa failing and the only hope they have is to buy up the industry in hopes that at some point they can post growth without another acquisition.

so whenever PlayStation's YoY numbers are down, that mean's their strategy is failing?... how about all the times Xbox's YoY numbers were up?.. did that mean their strategy was working?..

also, i guess that means PlayStation's past strategy was failing since they've now pivoted towards increased PC support along with cloud and mobile (similar to Xbox)..

please let me know where the goalpost has been moved to so i can properly keep track..

When's the last time their numbers have been up? They stopped reporting console sales years ago because their brand continues to go into the dumps. Most of their revenue growth has come from acquisitions and they are incapable of posting growth organically. This matters because at some point they won't have an acquisition to pad the numbers.

No , PlayStations strategy was actually working but because they are greedy morons they are naive enough to think pivoting to PC will help them.... it won't. Sony will be worse off than Microsoft if they follow Microsofts strategy. It isn't a coincidence their console sales are down as they have moved games to PC. The same thing happened to MS and it will happen to Sony. The difference is Sony doesn't have trillions of dollars to buy up the industry.

No goal post are being moved because I'm just telling you what will most likely happen. All industry execs see is the potential without seeing the reality.

There's nothing center about you.

You will constantly side with any group that race swaps/gender swaps etc... for the sole purpose of DEI. You will side with that position everytime regardless of how ridiculous the reasoning is.

Calling people losers when you have made at least 3 alt accounts with over 20 thousand post defending these actions is peak irony 🤣. Again you are a perfect example of why people should be gatekept out of hobbies they have no interest in.
