I don’t think the writers have made him perfect. His most recent movie, No Way Home, is about Peter trying to use superpowers to help his friends get out of trouble. Which backfires and causes a bunch of problems, and Aunt May dies saying “with great power there must also come great responsibility.” Seems like a pretty on-theme story.
Okay do fucking Spider-Man and tell me how “with great power comes great responsibility” is Objectivist. Rand wanted all the talented people to fuck off and leave the stupid poors to die! Spider-Man’s first arc is realising that his powers shouldn’t be used for self enrichment.
I grew up communist in a conservative family and I resolved the issue by having more patience and skill for debate than my parents.
Also try pulling out the “this is why I don’t love you” on a reactionary parent. It cuts really deep 😂
Oh, well then you’re using the wrong words to describe things. What you mean is, you’re not interested in extremist politics. It doesn’t sound like you have a problem with moderate politics.
Here’s an example of some moderate politics: I want to watch the new season of Star Trek Prodigy with my partner, but my partner wants to run a load test on its CPU to check for problems. Turns out my partner can’t be in a voice chat while running the load test, I won’t be able to hear it. So I told it that it should finish its load test and message me when it’s ready to watch TV. That’s politics. A group of people had to make a decision, and we did. I made the decision and my partner accepted it, because my partner trusts me with political power and I place importance on my partner’s needs.
(Also my partner does not yet know there is a new season of Prodigy. I’m planning to surprise it!)
In Batman Beyond, Batman’s nemesis is a CEO. He’s a villain called Blight, who killed Batman’s father.
I had an upvote on your comment until the last paragraph. But that’s a bad last paragraph.
Batman is a good person and that’s why it’s fiction.
This fact was revealed in Batman Beyond, in which Batman’s nemesis is an evil CEO called Blight.
I would like you to explain how Captain America and Superman are reactionary.
Captain America is an artificial warrior created by a Jewish scientist to fight the Nazis, and Superman is a baby sent away in a basket to be raised by not-dead parents who chose to use his privilege to help people.
Zack Snyder is an Objectivist and that’s why his Superman movies stink. He doesn’t understand the core themes of superheroes, he only understands the spectacle and surface theatrics.
This is why I’m so excited for Batman Azteca. Aztec warrior Batman killing colonisers like the insane conquistadore Two-Face
Also the Penguin
I thought Lucius Fox was the CEO. Bruce Wayne is chair of the board.
You can’t handle it because you’re used to sitting in your car. This is healthier
Trump audibly pooped his pants while answering a question
Good idea, if we trick half the Trump voters into voting for him, Trump and this guy will both only get 25% of the vote, and Biden will win easily
I can confirm this is true. I’m not into women and I love big boobs.
Based on the comments in this thread, it seems like the show is making the other women look unappealing on purpose.
I always struggle with believing thin people as a convincing love interest. I understand that’s what most people like but I still can’t relate to it.
EDIT: looked up some pictures, she’s big enough to be a halfway convincing love interest
Germany and supporting genocide. Name a more iconic combo
The original is a boomer humour comic complaining about PM10 pollution from cars and all the allergies it gives kids. The message of the comic is that we should invest in public transit and walkability to reduce car pollution.
He’s still Batman. He does detective stuff, doesn’t have superpowers, Gotham is appropriately grimdark, etc. Terry doesn’t have to learn that with great power comes great responsibility like Peter does. The only similarity is that he’s a working class wisecracking teenager with a somewhat agility based fighting style. Peter Parker was never a burly hoodlum before he got his powers, and he doesn’t see being a superhero as a way to make up for mistakes he made as a normal. He also didn’t steal his powers. Terry is a much more mature and slightly darker character than Peter at the start of his journey. He’s not an academically minded geek, he’s someone who’s experienced the real world and understands it. He’s got street smarts, he can fight, and he can lie.
