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.
  
  In the show, the conservative population eats it up.
  If conservatives IRL don't get that The Boys is making fun of conservatives not understanding satire that's a bonus.
  
  they call it woke, and they lost thier minds with GEN V series. because the jordan characther gender bends.
  
  They are it up IRL, too. Took them until like season 3 to actually realize they were the butt of the joke. The character names Stormfront (one of their right wing media companies) being a literal Nazi supersoldier didn't tip them off
  
  I’m not sure if that’s a thing that really happened
  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.
  
  Trolling is a art form.
  
  Hi! Nothing in your short post was offensive or stupid so I apologize for the wall of text I'm going to dump on you. And I'll caveat what I'm about to say with "People find ways to be clever in all kinds of situations, so you're even kind of right." But...
  I'm going to take a stand, on a very subjective topic, and say loudly; No, Trolling is not an art form. I hate this fucking take. Trolling takes all kinds of forms but its unifying element is to make other people 'upset'. Sometimes mad. Sometimes sad. Sometimes confused. Sometimes depressed. You know what else does that? Existing at all in this fucking ghastly, unjust, terrible world. People start pissed off, and Trolls dog pile on and take credit. Trolling is art in the same way painting a freshly painted white wall in more white is fucking art- you accomplished fuck all.
  Being kind is fucking art. More than art it's fucking design, and craft and construction. Making someone happy. Hopeful. Joyous. Inspired. That takes fucking art. It takes hard work, sometimes sacrifice, and always intellect. And you have to do it in direct defiance of the whole fucking world.
  
  You should probably know that 'trolling is a art form' is kind of a meme, because the statement itself has an obvious language error in it that people feel the need to correct.
- thats where kripke gets his material, from trump/ and his administration, he was inspired by trump. Homelander is a fictional representation of trumps behaviour.
  right wingers got thier panties in a wad over GEN V characthers.
