Wait, what is this about? Are you saying that there are some people who can’t figure out that homelander is the bad guy? Can you point me to one of these people?
I just had a discussion about it with my friends, some of which are conservatives, and none of the people there were confused as to him being a bad guy, so you’ll have to be more specific than some vague waving around in the air.
That being said, I get that people might side with him. Just like people side with the joker and Tyler durden. But how do you know they’re conservatives?
Of course there are some conservatives who think homelander is the good guy. Some percentage of every group is just f****** stupid.
Yeah, agreed. I shouldn’t speak in absolutes. There are probably also people from the left who think he is the good guy.
But I agree with the sentiment of that comment itself: they idolize him because he does what he wants. I would also add that he projects himself as outwardly strong, which is another train they probably admire. But I don’t think they are confused into believe this is the good guy. I think that thread is actually pretty good evidence of what I suspect - that this isn’t really a thing - because the only thing in that thread that points to any type of evidence is that picture. . .which is certainly open to a ton of interpretation outside of “Homelander is the good guy.”
My guess as to what has happened is that some people were idolizing him for his projected strength and arrogance, kind of like how they idolize Trump, maybe even tongue in cheek a bit, and people thought “only conservatives could be that dumb” and then it morphed into “conservatives think Homelander is the good guy.”
Ah yeah. The term “good” is overloaded. I don’t think anyone thinks he’s good morally. That would be next level stupid. But I do think some people think he’s ‘good’, as in they idolize him.
That said, I don’t even understand the conservative platform anymore. It used to be small government and let people do what they want. But now all the conservatives I know want to use big government to stop people from doing what they want.
I think the old conservatives are now “fiscally responsible liberals” maybe?
I disagree. It’s the most obvious you can get, like judging a book by the cover without even reading the blurb on the back of it. Why open the book when what it’s about is obvious? No effort, analysis, or thought required.
They never did figure it out. They had to be told. Conservatives are really bad at seeing the obvious much less any level of nuance.
Conservatives love pastiche. So they can just take shit at face value and have a great time.
No introspection, because that would ruin the fun.

Just go look through any The boys discussions and you will find those that think he is just doing whats necessary. There you have been pointed.

Go away troll. No matter what I say you will just come back with some other lame question. Go read the threads and find out. I’m out.
You’re inability to defend the claim is not my fault. It’s easier to call me a troll than admit that maybe the claim is straight up bs.

But if you’re looking for examples, the top comment here is an easy one. There will of course be more out there because conservatives aren’t some monolith who all have the same opinion. https://www.reddit.com/r/TheBoys/comments/1djocb4/comment/l9cld4p/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=mweb3x&utm_name=mweb3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Of course that’s not representative of all conservatives. The ones you know are probably very fine people.
