The New Superman is Super Gay. Here’s Why this Culture War Fight Matters

Via Gen Z Conservative

Now, I’m not super into superheroes.

Apart from the Dark Knight trilogy and Deadpool, I find the movies either overly earnest in the annoying, Boomer sort of way (i.e. Superman always doing the right thing) or filled with originally interesting but gradually duller and duller storylines (the Avengers franchise after the first Thor movie). So I’m coming at the whole DC Comics announcing that Superman is super gay, err…bisexual, from a layman’s perspective.

But, and this is important, even I know that Superman’s love interest is Ms. Lois Lane, not Mr. Louis Lane.

Maybe there wasn’t fluoride in the water on Krypton (that’s a joke, lying fact-checkers), maybe he’s just into gals, or maybe he’s a right-wing fanatic, but I’d always heard that Superman had the hots for Lois. The middle option is the most likely, as fluoride isn’t mentioned in-universe and the latter option is unlikely, as Superman fought the Klan and Nazis back when people other than undercover FBI agents were in those organizations.

Regardless of the reason, Superman isn’t gay just like James Bond isn’t a black woman. Oh, they’re changing Bond into a black woman? Well, then Superman is straight like the Pope’s Catholic! Oh, he’s a pinko that works with abortionists now? Dammit, I give up. Our culture is too far gone.

And that’s why it matters that they’re turning Superman gay (despite normally insisting that people are born gay); it’s part of an unrelenting attack on every pillar of Western culture, especially our popular culture. They hope to change our minds, not by convincing us, but by manipulating the youth through wiping out the old culture in Maoist fashion and then beginning it anew with woke books, songs, movies, etc.

We conservatives have a tendency to dismiss such things. “Who cares if superman is super gay now?” we ask, “It’s just a dumb comic book. Such trifles don’t matter.”

Such are the remarks you hear about each little leftist victory in the culture war.

The Dr. Seuss cancellation doesn’t matter because “you can still buy the other books.”

Star Wars suddenly going woke doesn’t matter because “it’s just some dumb series of cash cow movies about space.”

James Bond the peak alpha male, the paragon of masculinity, becoming some generically woke black woman doesn’t matter because “it’s just a movie.”

Perhaps each assertion is true in isolation.

Some Disney director giving a made-up space admiral pink hair doesn’t herald the imminent demise of Western culture. But it’s a warning sign.

Heroes like Superman and Bond becoming figures associated with the left (gay, black) rather than associated with the right (ripped, violent white dudes) is more important, as a society needs a concept of heroism to be functional, but also isn’t devastating on its own. “Quantum of Solace” and “Batman vs. Superman” don’t hold quite the same level of prestige as Lays of Ancient Rome or The Illiad. But they are more culturally relevant, and certainly more widely known, so they matter.

And Dr. Seuss and Star Wars are fun entertainment for kids, but there are other sources of entertainment. Individually, changing them also isn’t indicative of our imminent end. But it is a shift away from the reasonable old and toward the woke new. Each book other than one of Seuss’s on the shelf is an opportunity of the woke virus to insert itself.

But all of those changes together? They’re utterly devastating; all those minor wins for the left are adding up into a major, overwhelming, Operation Bagration-style victory.

Strong, masculine characters like Bond, Han Solo, and Superman, characters that were once excellent role models for young boys that need lessons in heroism, have been replaced with leftist icons that aren’t suitable role models for anyone, much less boys that need lessons in masculinity.

In short, once-great stories have turned into propaganda flicks for the left that are so shameless that Leni Riefenstahl would be proud!

If your son is watching Star Wars or some other woke cartoon all day, then first turn off the damn TV and give him a book, and then consider what ideas are in his head.

He wasn’t learning about great men, watching John Wayne or Daniel Craig show him how to act like a hero, or watching something that taught him about the triumphs of his ancestors. Instead, he was learning leftist talking points in entertainment form.

Ditto that if you replace a canceled Dr. Seuss book with a piece of woke kids literature or gay Superman comic book. Such content will indoctrinate him. Avoid it like the plague.

The fact is, the left gets that Hitler was correct when he said “He alone, who owns the youth, gains the future.” And guess what…like the little Austrian Corporal, the left takes this seriously and plays for keeps.

They’re not messing around or acting on impulse when they make Superman gay, Bond a black woman, or cancel Dr. Seuss.

Such moves are calculated.

They want to cancel the remaining pop-culture icons that harken back to the at least somewhat conservative days of the semi-recent past and replace them with ideologically permissible, woke characters that will indoctrinate the youth into political correctness ideology.

So that’s why these things matter and why we can’t be okay with them turning Superman gay. It’s fun to joke about the utter insanity of what the left is trying to do to our culture, but never forget that if we keep losing battle after culture war battle, then the left will win. It’s not for fun, we’re not succeeding, and Western Civilization itself is at stake.

Think I’m being hyperbolic? Would Churchill have stood alone against the Nazis in Britain’s darkest hour had he not been inspired since his youth by the tale of Horatius at the gate and instead had been taught to repeat the CRT mantras of Kendi’s Anti-Racist Baby? I doubt it. Will our boys be heroes if every pop culture figure is gay or a woman? I doubt that too.

Young men need to see masculinity, otherwise they’ll forget what it is.

These small culture war skirmishes matter. Conservatives need to start taking them seriously and fighting back.

I gave up comic book superheros and their storylines when I was 6.
They made all the sense of Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy.

While working as security director for the ABC affiliate in San Francisco I had occasion to meet Noel Neil who portrayed Lois Lane in the “Superman” TV series of the early 1950s. After telling her about my 10 year old boy crush on her and having a good laugh, she whipped out an 8X10 glossy of her holding hands with George Reeves replete in his Superman costume, and like every star of her time, inscribed it to me in a flourishing autograph.. A charming woman from a charming era.

Woke up, fixed my coffee, fired up the computer and saw this. Nice way to start the day.
Thanks for the beautiful pic George.

Hate to spoil it for everyone, but Superman, a literal alien disguised as a Christian White man, is the story of the jew.

Superman was a rip off of the novel “Gladiator” by Phillip Wylie who also co-wrote “When Worlds Collide”.

Yes, this is inspired by the old stories. Superman is the good one, Batman the bad one. Deep stuff. Of course it’s all inverted in the newer movies and comics. If someone is interested, Rosette explains the symbolism on her blog. Can be found – BATMAN V SUPERMAN BY ROSETTE DELACROIX

As I understand it it’s not Superman (Clark Kent) that is bi-curious but his son (Jonathon) with Lois Lane.

The end of the world in the bible. Speaking of mankind. …and their thoughts were only evil continually. Genesis 6:5 We aren’t at that point currently but we are heading that way in a hurry. Sorta like a snowball headed for hell. Come quickly Lord Jesus.

Didn’t even have to look to guess, Gen Z conservative. We need to vote in moar re-pubes to conserve….Nothing. The culture war is over, the only way it changes is with baseball bats and blackpowder.

“watching John Wayne or Daniel Craig show him how to act like a hero,”
Even Gen Z isn’t this dumb

All those other books and movies? It’s all woke and always was. What does it tell you when your jewish superheroes who fought the ‘Nazis’ are all faggots nowadays?

The pants-shitting drunk, perpetual fuckup, and personal friend of Bernard Baruch, Winston Churchill, being inspired by Horatius at the Gate? Ridiculous. That ‘little Austrian corporal’ (little because he wasn’t as fat? because he was taller than Churchill) had actually fought in a war before, and proved his worth. He was no Horatius, because in the poem Horatius swum to safety. Who does that make Hitler, Leonidas?

Hitler was repeatedly decorated for bravery during trench warfare in WW One. Churchill participated in genociding the Boers.

People do not really seem to grasp what “History is written by the winners” implies or conveys.

This Gen Z cat is about as thought provoking as a Bazooka Joe comic. Schlichter, Stossel, Buchanan, and Sparky the Gen Z Sage.

Its almost like there is no unifying Idea here.

He was also the architect of the risky, and ultimately disastrous, Gallipoli campaign that resulted in huge casualties, mostly of ANZAC troops. He was a complete POS, and I like many others used to think he was a “great man” –I’m glad I know better now.

Act is the operative word, at least in Craig’s case.

He recently sent fans into a spin when he told Stephen Colbert that he kissed all of his leading men, after the No Time to Die villain Rami Malek said they had once had a playful smooch after rehearsal. “The thing is, it just breaks the ice,” Craig said.

As others have pointed out, comic books were a very kosher endeavour from the start.

They were subversive, and many patents objected to them for their deleterious effect on youthful morality.

You can tell the subversion worked, too, because members of the targeted group can now be found to defend the grossest cinematic obscenities as “free speech”.

Masculinity is this fragile. “Don’t touch my heroes, don’t touch my super masculine models, I’m gonna cry”.
Why are you obsessed with masculine men, it doesn’t look you’re in pursuit to become them but you’re looking to be possessed by them.
