I don't get it, where is the depressing punchline?

[–] Cattail@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

I'll teach you to say fuck you to all the people that tell you to be mean

Well, start.

Start now!

Superman comes from a position of absurd privilege wherein he can do whatever he wants without risk to himself, and can put on a pair of glasses to become anonymous afterwards.

Everyone else has occasionally consider a compromise between what they think is right and what is pragmatic or necessary.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 68 points 2 days ago (14 children)

Superman taught us to use the privilege we have to help those that don't.

Superman is an ideal to strive for, not a model to emulate. Ideals are goals and guides. But pragmatism and necessity still factors into decision making

My personal compromise is that I wear my underwear on the outside, but I don't do any of the other stuff Superman does.

[–] AscendantSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Your underwear's not on the outside if you aren't wearing anything else at all

[–] CIA_chatbot@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

Technically if it’s on the outside it’s overwear!

This doesn't invalidate the idea of doing the right thing just because it's right when you can.

He also taught us you should drop netanyahu from the sky to make him crap his pants

[–] AskewLord@piefed.social 17 points 2 days ago (2 children)
[–] teslekova@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 day ago

They both dropped him. Hawk Girl did not catch him.

You're right thank you for correcting me

My favorite scene in the MCU comes in Captain America - The Winter Soldier.

Hydra's toughest badass is holding a gun on an unarmed technician, telling him to set off a weapon.

The pencil necked nerd boy stands up to the killer.

"Sorry, Captain's orders."

That's the point of having heroes. They show us how we're supposed to behave.

It doesn't matter if you're doing it because you were inspired by Superman, Harriet Tubman, or Toto the dog.

[–] dontbelievethis@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Superman taught me that you have to be born powerful to change the world.

Superman is not superman because he's a Kryptonian with super powers. Superman is superman because he's an idealist and selflessly works his ass off every day to uphold those ideals in any way that he can. It just so happens that what he can do is superhuman. But we can all still contribute to an ideal like him. We can refuse to accept the world we have, the would we think we deserve, the world we think is realistic, but instead work toward an ideal world that we push for every day.

Superman taught me to not nut in my coffee

If a Zionist kills a child in front of me while laughing, being good would be smashing their skull in with a brick.

*Not surprised I got two people to reply that I've already blocked lol.

Also Hawk Girl is a based mother fucker who what she did to Nenjamin Betanyahu

[–] justme@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 days ago

I'm sure the vast majority of humans are good. just the definition of what is good differs quiet much

[–] reev@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago
