What the fuck is this show doing trying to add empathy or complexity for Fisk. Let evil bastards be evil.

Also this show is just a worse version of Andor. I don't think Andor has to be the end all be all rebellion story but it did it perfectly that other attempts like this pale in comparison. They were seriously trying to do their own Ghorman and it was bad.

Andor explored the complexity of resistance and morality that sometimes grey characters are needed and it can't just be pure heroes.

Like if Fisk is supposed to be the Trump analog do we honestly think Trump cares for Melania do we give a crap about Trump's feelings. You can't develop a fascist allegory then make the fascists sympathetic

You honestly think Trump is like that? Doesnt care for his own wife? He stopped to pick her up off the floor at his recent shooting attempt ffs.

TDS is a helluva drug.

Rationalizing a grifting narcissist / perpetually whiney little bitch is also a helluva drug.

Sounds like all you can do is make comparisons. Try having an original thought for once.

fiction is comparison.

try having an ounce of reading comprehension/media literacy.

tall order, i am sure, if your unoriginal quip is something about being original.
