Another example of white people worshiping a Japan that never was is in Samurai and the concept of honor.

Samurais are not heroes for the downtrodden. They are enforcers for feudal lords, comparable to sheriffs in Westerns or modern cops.

And honor? It's just another name for Face. Asian people loves Face. We basically have clout economy before there are clout, the Japanese just took it more seriously and invented a fancier name.

How, exactly, do these people think a leftist society work? We pick your favorite leftist, say Kroptokin, then it's Viva Prince Kroptokin? What the fuck are you, Carlists? Jacobites?

No. Direct democracy means total transparency and full accountability. It means that the people can and will take the power back whenever they want, for whatever reasons they want. If you're not up for that, don't prop yourself up as a false prophet.

Ironically, it's these idol worshipers who love purity tests the most, because to them anyone who don't agree with their monarch and savior on everything are automatically not pure enough.

I'm just so sick of seeing LARPing leftists who stanning dirtbags by saying "all purity tests bad, celebrities need forgiveness too uwu" like the libs that they are.

Purity tests are bad when you use it to push out common people who could become comrades but just haven't educated themselves in leftism or detoxed from internalized bigotry completely.

But if you hold any kind of authority, say as an idol with the attention of thousands of fans? Than you deserve to be put through the most impossible purity tests. Run a take before your friends before poisoning public discourse with it. You can always ask your audience for opinion on a topic you're unfamiliar with.

Don't want that kinda scrutiny and responsibility? Then don't steal power from the people by claiming you have the right opinions when you don't.

This thread in a nutshell:

Note that Green Arrow, who has a similar shtick as a trust fund baby turned vigilante, never got the same reverence because he's a Liberal or socialist mouthpiece depends on the writer. In fact, even with the Arrow series, a lot of time you can just tell how much the producers wish they were making another goddamn Batman series.

The evil and criminality of Batman villains are often attributed to some kinda unspecified mental illness or neurodivergence, which resulted in them being sent to Arkham as opposed to a prison, which is easy to get out of, both downplaying the violence that often occurs in these institutions, and implying that harsher punishment should befall these individuals. Meanwhile Batman, who by all logic should be pulverized in a second by certain members of the Justice League, can nevertheless stand toe-to-toe with them and often comes out on top, because he's the goddamn Batman and he's just that fucking smart. In other words, it's ableist as shit.

When you put Batman in the context of Justice League, it's arguably worse. Many of their members are not humans at all, and similarly tangle with mostly non-human enemies. Meanwhile, Batman, the token human who is there to put these demigods into their place and show them what humans can do - through often questionable and sometime outright amoral means - is a billionaire who beats up the poor: in other words, a Capitalist and a fascist living out Ayn Rand's wet dream, the idea that the objectively ideal human is a wealthy HARD MAN who makes HARD CHOICES. And again, fans are totally fine with this, and Batman is often the most popular member of the League.

Batman vs. Poison Ivy demonstrates everything wrong with superheroes.

Batman, someone without powers and never did a day of honest work, beats up impoverished criminals as an endless vengeance for his dead parents, knowing that it'll not save his city, occasionally donates to charity with money his robber baron parents stole from the workers, is a hero.

Poison Ivy, someone who has actual superpowers and decided to use it for the most heroic endeavor of all: saving the planet from the pollution and exploitation of runaway Capitalism, is a villain.

And even nominally "Liberal" fans are totally fine with this.

@FreyaManibrandr Proof that the Joker hates Nazis:

Pyramids and the Great Wall were built thousand of years before white people built...anything.

Legends said that Alexander III of Macedon once had to execute a soldier of his for accidentally killing a kitten since the Egyptian city that worshiped Bast (the goddess of cats) told him: "Execute the cat-killer or we riot."

Egyptians were the first people to keep cats since the way the Niles work means they need to store grains for a long time and vermin is a deadly problem.
