That seems to be it indeed
Holy fucking lol what
^i have never watched this show and have no context at all for this information^
Yea, there's a scene in the latest season that involves her character breast feeding a grown man (who's the show's parody of Superman, and also kinda alt-right leaders/politicians, no less).
What strikes me as particularly dumb, apart from not recognising that the show is satire, is that her character's motivation was to get ahead by pleasing the man in charge. Which means, even if she were in character, and ok with the ridiculous idea of providing or pretending to provide breast milk, she'd have no interest in providing any breast milk to anyone.
The Boys has a lot of super creepy right-wingers who idolize the fascist characters in the show, totally oblivious that the show is making fun of them and those characters.
It's super weird that they're that dumb, but combined with that is just how weird and disturbing they are as people because of that.
Star Trek has a similar subset of fans that are all like "When did Star Trek get all woke? More pew pew!"
Try 1966
As a matter of fact, satire does not work. Fascists will idolize the fascists in satire, always. It feels like satire only works with people who already have an education about the dangers of fascism.
In the broken mind of a fascist, satire is actually a kind of utopia. It's how the world is supposed to be in their twisted ideals.
Oh yes my ideal woman should breastfeed a fully grown lab experiment
Its the same reason they like to play Born in the USA all the time.
Poe’s Law per Wikipedia
Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.
Adage means saying. I had to look it up.
One day we'll have a movie that starts with a warning like:
This movie is satire. If you actually relate to and agree with the ideas presented in this film, please seek professional help.
Unfortunately it would get paid as much attention as the FBI warnings about piracy being illegal.
I feel like the only satire that works is full blown, overt caricature, like the WW2 propaganda cartoons
This has to be satire. Right?
The push to get trump on the GOP ballot started as the largest troll in 4chan history.
Halfway through, the ones in on the joke got swarmed by morons who thought it was serious.
But man, literally the everest of trolls, was almost beautiful to watch.
That's actually incredible. It was extremely obvious they were taking the piss out of the right... Kind of alarming if that wasn't picked up on by some
Is it incredible? Poe's law hasn't gone anywhere.
Being oblivious to reality is a feature of Republicanism.
Take rights away from 50% of the population, be surprised that the vast majority of women don't like rights being taken away.
These are the same folk who think the Colbert Report wasn't satire or get upset that wolfenstein's Twitter account promoted a new game about killing Nazis (all the wolfenstein games are about killing nazis).
"I loved Rage Against The Machine until they went woke"
I don't understand? Why did ratm have to get political?, why couldn't they just stick to their music?
These idiots didn't even say "woke", they said "political". They've never processed any part of Rage lyrics other than "fuck you, won't do what you told me".
If you really suck, the games are about Nazis killing this one guy
No, they really don't see it. And they instead idolize Homelander and think he's the one that's correct in the show and doing what's right and what they want to do.
I have literally never seen anyone idolize homelander. This is like Marilyn Manson getting his ribs removed so he could suck his own dick: often repeated, never substantiated
