Is Superman a Hero or Another Victim of Our Culture War, or Both?

Here’s my take: Superman is bigger than politics. He is bigger than Gunn, Cain, or me. He is not the property of the Right or the Left. He is a symbol of what we wish we could be: strong, honest, selfless, and unafraid to stand up for the little guy. If you want the “old Superman,” there are thousands of comics, shows, and movies waiting for you. But do not let your outrage keep you from seeing a new one. Maybe you will like it. Perhaps you will hate it. But at least watch it before you scream.

The real danger is not an “immigrant Superman.” The real danger is a society so addicted to knee-jerk reactions that we cannot sit together like Johnny Carson’s audience and share a laugh or a hero without tearing each other apart.

If Superman Fails Because We Made Him Political, What Hope Do We Have Left?

If #Superman fails because both sides cannot stop screaming politics at a movie about an alien farm boy in a cape, then what hope do we really have left for any part of our culture? Can we not appreciate things for what they are on the surface?

Remember this, my fellow citizens of this Constitutional Republic: everything leads back to politics. They all know it. Radicals, whether they wear a donkey or an elephant pin, know exactly how to push your buttons. They want you distracted, bickering about nonsense while they sneak through massive spending, secret surveillance expansions, or backroom deals that strip more freedom away from We the People.

Do not fall for it. Stay sharp. Stay focused. Do not be fooled. Is it not time to let entertainment be entertainment again? Without conflict, we do not get great storytelling. Marvel’s greatest arcs, mutants hunted by fearful governments, echoes of Nazi Germany, Civil War plots, came from exploring exactly these tensions. The same is true for DC’s new universe, Gods and Monsters.

Metahumans coming into the light. An alien like Superman is doing good, but terrifying the public when misinformation poisons the truth. Sound familiar? That is the real politics here: a world struggling to admit it is no longer in charge when power evolves.

Here is the truth from me: I have heard and seen that Superman is awesome. Just ignore the clickbait. Ignore the political saboteurs who wanted it to flop before it ever hit the screen. This film is truer to the comics than we have seen in a long time. Go see it. I know I will many times.

Too many people, like Dean Cain and the outrage mob, talk before they know the full story. Too many are fooled by clickbait headlines that they did not even finish reading. I did watch it, and I will tell you myself: it is not “woke.” It is not some...
