Nothing this show is saying about Trumper's is inaccurate. They just are upset someone is calling them out on their racism.
shareTrump hasn't been mentioned in The Boys, let alone "Trumpers."
Your post is inaccurate.
You have to know that they are mocking Trump and his supporters in this show . . .don't you?
shareYou realize that this show mocks politicians and their sycophants in general, don't you? Or do you shut your eyes and pretend that its limited to one side, presumably yours?
only one side dismisses vaccines as poison , refers to themselves as "patriots" and ... well I just lost count of the ways the show is wholeheartedly and undoubtedly dissing MAGAS and right wingers.
It beggars belief you would/could argue against that plain-as-day fact.
It took two examples for you to lose count? That wasn't very convincing.
How about Queen Maeve's commercial, "I'm a lot like you... I'm gay" when in reality she sleeps with men as well but must hide that from the public, A-Train's fake and insincere battle against racism, and references to pandering to the left that come out of the Vought marketing team just about every time they interact with Ashley during the show?
Like I said, you must close your eyes when watching the show to miss these things. That or those token political references I mentioned are so indoctrinated into you that you truly aren't aware of that they are mocking your beliefs as well as the other side.
"Maeve" ? when was she last in it ?
we're talking about now
Abortion .. thats another one ...
Then theres the 1984 style "inform on your family" puppets
If we're only talking about now then I suppose there's nothing to say since the show is not currently putting out new episodes.
You realize that cop out excuse nullifies what you're saying, don't you?
what cop out excuse?
I'd have thought you'd just get angry and call it woke like the other shows , rather than pretend its not happening
Your cop out excuse is to imply the discussion only pertains to "now," while discounting the examples I provided that happened prior to "now."
If you wanted to frame the conversation in such a way that you would confirm your bias, you should have specified that you were talking about "now" and not the entirety of the show.
Though more accurately, "now" refers to nothing since the show is not airing new episodes "now."
I never got how the puppets were supposed to be a jab at conservatives. Since when did they report on their own families?
shareWell its a bit a bit extreme granted , and not current GOP behavior ,
Its more drawn from dystopian novels / movies about right wing dictatorships such as 1984 ,
which no doubt both sides will claim is the dream of the other side.
I never got the impression that 1984 portrayed a rightwing dictatorship. After all, rightwingers generally don’t push for censorship, alter history, or turn people on each other. Historically, that’s what leftwingers do.
shareRightwingers are the book banners and you say that they don't push for censorship? Alter history? It's always the Right claiming that the Civil War wasn't about slavery and the Rebel flag is okay even though it is deeply racist and unpatriotic. Both sides turn people against each other, of course, that is inevitable with a two party system.
shareAnd just what books did rightwingers ban? Genuine question, because the only thing I can think of that comes close is preventing children from access to pornography in school libraries, which even you should be fine with. Leftwingers, on the other hand, will censor and/or alter literally anything that doesn't push their narrative, whether its political elections, info on pandemics, movie/tv show reviews, inaccurate translations of foreign works, and black-washing historical figures, among other things.
Speaking of, last I heard, it was the Left that said the Civil War wasn't about slavery in order to push the narrative that freeing the slaves was never a priority for rightwingers. The Right has generally pushed for equality, cooperation, and compromise, while the Left feeds on conflict in order to control others. I don't know who said "the Rebel Flag is ok", so I'm gonna need more context.
What books did rightwingers ban?!

Yes the LeftWing will ban misinformation that can mislead people in dangerous ways! It's not about a "narrative" its about science and fact -checking. I'm grateful that they do. If you want people to believe a lot of ignorant garbage then you aren't thinking of the chaos that would cause.
The Left has never said that the Civil War wasn't about slavery. If you think that's a thing you are confused. I think you are confused because Democrats and Republicans changed platforms during the civil rights era. Republicans used to be the big government party while Democrats were committed to curbing federal power.
Just try to Google: what political party says the Civil War wasn't about slavery? and see what comes up, that way you won't have to take my word for it.
It's the Right down South that wants to keep and wave around the Rebel flag, that's just a fact.
Yeah, as I expected, rightwingers sparing kids from reading sexually explicit books, queer and otherwise. Good on them, and I say this as a queer person. The Left, on the other hand, gleefully pushes misinformation and benefits from the harm that comes from that.
There was no party switch, that's a myth. I've only ever heard the Left say the Civil War was just a bunch of white dudes fighting, and that black people had to free themselves. Maybe your anecdotal experience showed otherwise, but everywhere else, they increasingly downplay white conservative's involvement in freeing slaves.
Anyone who unironically supports the "rebel flag", and I'm assuming you mean the Confederate Flag, is a Leftist, specifically an honest Leftist, that's just a fact. The Right fought them and beat them, and the Right today is still pro equality for all skin colors and both genders.
If the party's platforms switching is a myth, how do you explain that Republicans used to be the big government party and Democrats were committed to curbing federal power?
shareThe republicans weren't in favor of big government, they just recognized that there needed to be some government oversight all over the country to protect people's rights, among other things. This meant they had to spread to the south, which at the time was still overrun by racist backwards democrats.
The democrats initially opposed this because they didn't wanna lose what power they had left, that is until they learned the system and realized they could corrupt it for their own ends. Now, the democrats are trying to expand and empower the government as much as possible to re-enslave everyone.
If there was no party switch, how come the KKK was founded by Democrats, but every single KKK member has been voting Republican since LBJ?
shareI kind of doubt that is true.
BOTH parties have been supportive of equal rights for blacks since hte mid 60s. And not just words, massive goverment programs and spending.
So, NEITHER party offers anything to an actual w.s. on that front.
Now, on other issues, such as say... War vs Peace, or social spending, I would expec that w.s. would be all over the place and split and would be forced to either vote on other issues, or not at all.
Oh, wait. Did you want a real answer or was your post more of a zinger attempt?

1. I could certainly see them voting for Bill or Hillary Clinton or Jimmy Carter. NOt to mention any number of congressional or state candidates.
2. Do you mean the idea black lives matter? Becuase both parties embrace that idea, at least publicly. Or the marxist terror organization that rioted hundreds of times during the Trump years? Because many dems including Harris clearly suppor those violent street brown shirts.
3. LBJ certainly betrayed his racist allies. But the republicans didn't change their positions. The debate switched from whether to have equality to HOW to have eqaulity. THe racists were left out in the cold. So, the other issues would be all they would have to vote on. And my point was that they would be all over the place there. YOur...hope that all racists are politically conservative is... nonsense.
4. Well, I gave you one. Let's see how you deal with it.
"trump living in your mind rent free since 2016"
shareRight, since Seth is an absolute raging liberal that’s how he sees the right. And he uses his Hollywood platform to push his agenda.
If Mel Gibson made The Boys he’d make the left look like psychotic buffoons and the right the heroes. It’s all about perception and agenda, not actual truth.
It's like saying, that, if the Jews weren't actually baking the matzah bread with Christian babies' blood, they wouldn't be upset when someone libeled them.
shareYeah. Season 4 went hard on trumpists. Not surprised they are hurt and crying and being broken heart.
They loved this show so much for being bloody and Homelander was their hero. And then they were mocked so hard in season 4.
100% lies. Unlike you lefty fascists, we actually believe in the Constitution and want it followed to the letter. Period. End of story.
shareWas it the left who stormed the capital to stop the peaceful transfer of power from an election?
No, it was the left that rioted for months during the summer of love, because they weren't getting what they wanted. Causing billions on damages, untold lost lives, destroyed businesses and a total disregard for law & order.
Jan 6 was a cake walk in comparison but you idiots believed every lie they told about it.
If we were actual fascists, all of you would already be dead and we wouldn't be arguing about an election.
PS, Trump won a primary election and democrats have been trying to put him in prison for four years. While your candidate was chosen for you by the establishment. Tell me again who the fascists are, idiot?
1) BLM has nothing to do with left or right , dems or reps.
2) Jan 6 was an attempt to throw democracy down the toilet and keep Trump in power against the electorates vote - I dont think thats "following the constitution to the letter"
3) nonsense
4) more gibbering
Bullshit.
Bullshit.
Keep telling yourself that.
You have no argument.
If morons didn’t generalize groups of people so much, then they would be taken more seriously.
