Same way they watch The Boys thinking Homelander is the hero

Do these people actually exist? I’ve read it before but I can’t believe that the character Homeländer has actual fans. The actor is amazing, though.

Oh they totally exist. There was a big kerfuffle on social media about it when Stormfront was introduced and a legion of fanboys started boycotting the show and sending hate mail because Homelander was outed as a Nazi (like it hadn’t been apparent already – they suddenly figured it out and thought the writers had done a 180 on his character). He was supposed to be the perfect American hero and the woke writers ruined him.
They were serious and angry about it. It was amusing to watch, really. They went on a cancel crusade over it.

This is really scary. I found Homelander to be so obviously sadistic and cruel and broken. That’s why I think the actor did such a great job, he gives off major psychopath vibes. Long before the Nazi backstory. How can people miss that?? It’s concerning…
