Remember that time Hal Jordan called Oliver Queen a billionaire social justice warrior? Remember how it was funny because it was the use of modern language to accurately describe Queen's MO, and he didn't even deny that he fit that mold?
Anything else like that?
Remember that time Hal Jordan called Oliver Queen a billionaire social justice warrior...
just read Green Lantern/Green Arrow
Oliver unironically sees himself as one and wears it with pride. But like many sjw's for all his rightousness covers for a shallow and hypocritical man he is deep down.
Great character, dc tradionally has heroes on both sides of the aisle. Unfortunately in these days, they only show the political side of the liberals.
Characters like Hawkman and Wally West probably vote for Trump.
>just read Green Lantern/Green Arrow
This. Olie is an insufferable libtard there and Hal is portrayed as stupid idiot, just to show how Olie is always right.
Isn't Hal Jordan a serial killer
He is also a pedo.
>Characters like Hawkman and Wally West probably vote for Trump.
Carter and Wally stayed at home after the "Grab them by the pussy" comment.
> after the "Grab them by the pussy" comment.
why do you think HAL likes him so much?
I lean liberal but it's kinda off-putting and even condescending for a silver spoon billionaire to lecture working class people about how criminals are actually forced to commit crimes because of le evil capitalism.
Bruce Wayne realizes this but while he's beating up dangerous felons and freaks, he also provides jobs and charities thanks to his Wayne Enterprises resources. Ollie donates and provides work too, but his attitude kinda pisses me off.
Percy's GA run has Black Canary calling out Ollie's champagne socialism all the time. Unfortunately he took it too far and made it seem like Dinah was shitting on him for no real reason when it was obvious that his actions and attitudes were in the right place. Though in general Green Arrow has a major problem with poverty fetishism, to the point as someone who grew up poor I find it condescending and insulting.
Nah, that's more like Guy, early JLI era Guy anyway.
You kind of have to expect it with Green Arrow. Like how I wouldn't pick up a Superman book and whine about how he's invincible and wears his underwear on the outside. It's who and what he is, for better or worse.
My best friend is Cuban. His family actually got on those boats and managed to flee to Florida. He fucking RAGES at anyone who defends Communism and can't understand upper class white college kids (who usually wear designer clothes made by sweatshops) defend Marx and Engels.
How does your friend feel about modern Latinx heroes?
He doesn't care about superheroes or comics though he does watch The Boys because he's like the dark humor. He's more into his music (plays bass and drums), pro wrestling, and vidya (he convinced me to get a Switch).
A Spanish teacher at my High School fucking celebrated when Castro was announced dead
I wish I was in that class
Ollie being up his own ass, preachy, and kind of a hypocrite is fine. My issue is that writers take a "you can't understand the plight of poor people or sincerely care about helping them unless you are poor yourself" tone with the book far too often. It's a completely retarded take; people who aren't poor can grasp the issues facing poor people just fine, and unless you're talking to someone who is completely out of touch at worst they'll just be missing out on some of the nuances and subtle things. Being poor sucks, it doesn't make you a better person, it just means you're poor.
Because Marx and Engels were those upper class white college kids. Communism has always been a bourgeois affectation.
Alien pussy doesn’t count also she’s older than him
I really hope these rich fucks get a serious reality check one day. They'd be crying themselves to sleep if they lived under a Communist regime. Then again, they and everyone else whose rich would probably be the first to go.
Ollie's THAT friend who know from school or work
I can unironically picture him with a dart board with Trump's face
Are people really surprised that Trump got elected? This is the same country that voted Nixon, Reagan, and Bush Jr. into office.
Most Cubans who fled were they themselves business owners and a part of the upper class.
>muh sexism
>focusing on decade old jokey banter instead of politics
reddit as fuck
My buddy's family wasn't rich. They were poor as dirt and didn't like living under Castro.
Thats why I said most, not all.
did the comics ever adressed how democracy in the USA is a joke?
>Then again, they and everyone else whose rich would probably be the first to go.
The people who shout Black Lives Matter the loudest from behind blue twitter checkmarks live in gated communities with armed guards. Their neighborhoods weren't being looted.
>gets gibmedats money from Batista government for selling out the future of Cuba
>government gets overturned by based Castro punting capitulaters out
>they run to Florida where their butthurt burns like the fury of a thousand angry hemorrhoids for eternity
Communism is based if only for this
>NOOOO YOU CANT JUST JUDGE A CANDIDATE BY HIS MORAL CHARACTER WHEN HES RUNNING FOR THE FAMILY VALUES PARTY NOOOOOOO
Oliver wouldn't vote Democrat outside the fact it's anti-Trump. That said, he'd probably run himself, only to get btfo by the system because he has moral standards and doesn't actively do evil shit to make money.
