He’s literally an alien from another planet. He was sent here because he lost his home planet. He’s always been an immigrant/refugee. Do these people have a single brain cell between all of them?
He also came here as a child.
Ohh is that where the ghoul kellyann ended up? She’s aged poorly.
I’ve slowly distanced myself from political communities so now I see nonsense like this and wonder what’s going on out there.
The new Superman movie basically had the message of “Don’t be a shit person”; people are outraged.
lol, like every Superman media ever? Superman is super, man. He’s always stood up for the little guy, the underdog, the (dare I say) immigrant.
Superman is literally a Christ figure. He’s basically a god, he loves humanity, and he constantly sacrifices himself to save us. Naturally, the religious right hates him.
The thing I find funny, is the “twist” with his parents sending him to Earth to conquer it is something conservatives could jump on to help their anti immigrant stance. But whatever. It’s not like they have a set of values they fall back on to make sure their ship is headed in the right direction.
That’s the twist they went with? Isn’t that just the plot of Dragon Ball?

Yeah, Gunn went with the old Twilight Zone plot, but the message got damaged in the crash so Clark thought “to serve man” meant to be helpful, and never learnt to cook.
(Plus, after growing up with the best versions of Ma and Pa Kent I’ve ever seen he wouldn’t for a second have accepted the real message and he’d still have acted exactly the same way as he did when he believed it told him to help; Lara and Jor-El might be his biological parents, but his real parents, the ones who educated him, were always the Kents.)

Dragon Ball Z.
The plot of Dragon Ball is Journey to the West / boobs are fun / Toriyama forgot, let’s do fights.
Looks like a headline from a fictional news segment in The Boys
That’s the one that conservatives thought the villain was the good guy, right? I’m not sure if that’s a thing that really happened or just a satire of conservatives famously poor media literacy.

Yeah I think you’d be right to be suspicious. There’s at least as many people who pretend to think something dumb on the internet for the lulz, as there are people who actually believe it.
It’s chilling just how accurate that is.
If you showed that image to people in the 80s and 90s, I guess essentially pre-9/11 america, when I was young and taught america was called “the melting pot,” it would feel like a joke rather than a warning.
America has never been a melting pot. Every new group of immigrants to this country have been horribly abused and hate crimed. Not just brown people either.
