Glagha posted:I mean, if you look too deep into any comic book super heroes you start to realize that it's kind of a hosed up fantasy. I mean, Batman is a private citizen who regularly takes the liberty of beating the everloving hell out of people and threatens/tortures them to extract testimony. Hell, he hacks cell phones for mass surveillance in The Dark Knight and is actually called out on that being a hosed up thing to do but the film doesn't really dwell on it. I get where you're coming from though. It's like the people out there who don't realize that Rorschach in Watchmen isn't supposed to be idolized. Yeah, Punisher is a pure fantasy of "I wish the bad guys who get away with crimes would get what's coming to them." He's there so you can sit down and watch a guy mow through dudes who the law isn't handling and who super deserve it, and you know they super deserve it because it's fiction. It's like the difference between idolizing Rorschach and finding him an interesting character.

food court bailiff posted:That's been the main characterization of him since he was introduced, man. I'm pretty sure in the comic Punisher debuted in he was a villain the heroes were trying to stop because he was killing jaywalkers. At one point he starts shooting at a couple taking a walk when they miss getting their newspaper in the garbage can by literally inches. I mean.....what did you "like" about him before this revelation? Man, come on, comic book characters are great- and terrible- because they've all got anywhere between sixty to twenty years of backstory mixed with other characters that you have to know. Some of this stuff just falls through the cracks. My impression was that he'd take a gun and kill all those criminals, mooks and the leaders.

Spoiler warning: All superhero comics are fascist propaganda. Yes, even that one that you like that's totally different from the others.

All we do here at white genocide is move into the suburbs, have biracial babies, and make utilities have an option to press 9 for Spanish when you call in.

On Shrove Tuesday (colloq. Pancake Day) this year I made my own pancakes from scratch. They were pretty good. Went with the american style stack rather than the more usual crepe because I find the crepes too thin, the topping basically ends up just on the plate as the pancake just shreds under the knife.

My idiot friends went on a rant last night that Punjabi guys (who she called 'brown buddy in a turban taking over everything here') shouldn't play hockey because it's for white Canadians only. Gladly everyone who commented called her the gently caress out, including mentioning that our team was led to the play-offs by a black captain. She deleted the post.

OldTennisCourt posted:Wait, what comic has Punisher just randomly murdering people for littering and killing jaywalkers? It either sounds like that was an extremely lovely writer who had no clue what they were doing, or you're mixing up the Punisher with someone else. In one of the comics where he describes his armory he talks about the security system on his van. It's literally rigged to explode is rocked. He laughs about the fact that some kids will probably jump on his hood one day and explode while he's parked somewhere.

Tiggum posted:They can't call it murder until after it's been investigated and determined to be murder though. You're correct, "murder" is a legal term with a specific meaning. So let's go with "killed", then. Or maybe we can by a little more honest and call it "brutally beaten to death by the police while in custody".

The punisher is so comically awful I get worried that there are people who sincerely think he's an awesome character and that we need someone like him IRL.

What about this? They call it murder when it was obviously self defense. The "victim" was brandishing a pineapple pizza.

There should be some thing similar to the castle doctrine that if you see some one eating a pizza with pineapple on it you have to kill them or you face life in jail yourself.
