A “gay” cape. “Bisexual” hero.
They are destroying our heros, our cultural icons with the end goal of destroying our civilization.
They destroyed the Columbus statues and statues of any man who lived hundreds of years ago. They are destroying the family. They are trashing the meaning of “man” and “woman.” And now, one of my childhood heros, Superman, has become SuperLimpWrist.
The author of the article seems to be entranced in fawning admiration: “heartwarming story” “exciting new relationship” “warm moment between the hero and his boyfriend”. I’m sure he thinks it fabulous.
Remember the excitement over the “gay football player” a few years back? I don’t remember his name and don’t care to. They are trying to destroy the connection between strong/aggressive/successful and heterosexual.
Didn’t work.
The current concept of “hero” is relatively new, emerging from the Depression and Hollywood and comics.
It’s IMO always been antithetical to American culture, because it lifts up a fictional elite immeasurably better then the common man who must just follow where he’s led.
Outside of fiction we have sports heroes who play games and jump around as if sport made one better than people who actually produce worth, and similarly actors/resses whose job is professionally lying on camera, who also pretend that failing at being themselves makes them more equal than everyone.
F “heroes” and up with the regular folk.
