>>108168144Comics are specifically Jewish culture. Superman was originally pitched as a (more common at the time) horror comic:"ubermench." He was meant to be Hitler's genetically engineered superman, and he would need to be taken down to preserve freedom, and it was explicitly an attempt by the Jewish authors nudge people towards the (then less popular) "fuck that Hitler guy" stance in the US. The editor didn't want to alienate or upset German Americans, so came up with the "what if The Superman were American?" angle. I personally mean that as a good thing, superhero comics and their influence on culture have been a great way of spreading the positive aspects of Jewish Culture (some people are just born better/"chosen," and it is their civic/social/ethical responsibility to take care for and be a guiding example for their inferiors, strength in solidarity etc...) while not including some of the proverbial "bathwater" of the less desirable Jewish cultural artifacts (predatory finance, manipulation of social constructs with soft power for personal gain etc...)
It seems today that a lot of Americans are torn between the false binary of "some people are just better, so fuck the weak/poor and let them die" and "everybody's equal" and capeshit's core message of "some people are better, and that gift comes with a set of ethical responsibility to your inferiors" is a nice happy medium.... and that comes from Jewish culture in this case (there are a few other cultures that particular meme could have come from: post-revolution france, Monarchal Scandanavia, or the less shitty iterrations of Confucian China to name a few... but in this case it came explicitly from Jewish writers.) You, probably, don't see this as a good thing, but whatever.
