You know, if Biden were to (somehow) win in November, it would be interesting to see the “vote blue no matter who” crowd try to explain away Biden (inevitably) doubling-down on his support for Israel’s genocide to a far greater degree than he is doing now.
Wishful thinking on my part, I suppose. The liberals will simply do what they always do - go to sleep as soon as they have a lib in the Waffle House and pretend US foreign policy has (magically) changed because of it.
If Batman was real today, he’d be Donald Trump.
That’s what these (alleged) “super heroes” really are… idealized, ubermensch-esque metaphors for the actual power wielded by the rich and privileged.
In fact, I’d say that Batman is the ultimate Objectivist wet dream - he perfectly personifies the fascist (as Batman) and the capitalist (as Bruce Wayne) in one person. Even Ayn Rand’s creepazoid ancap sugar-daddy “heroes” didn’t manage that.
