@@tydshiin5783 In fairness, Superman as an alien is absurdly dangerous from a realistic perspective. Let's say he has good intentions - he isn't a Homelander or Omniman - but his origins are truthful. He gets his powers due to being an alien, *from an alien species that lacks those powers*. It wouldn't take much for his brain chemistry to be messed up under those circumstances. Now let's say that he is as vulnerable to old age as any human, dementia is a problem. Taken in isolation from any threats like Darkseid or Doomsday, one could see where Lex might be coming from. Make Lex start out with that point of view, but be too much of an egomaniac to see the likes of Darkseid or Doomsday as threats when Superman is around...or at least threats he can't handle on his own, and with him doubling down...you can see where the villainy comes from.
Superman: "I'm here to stop your rocket from firing a nuke at the Moon!" Jeff: "Oh sorry, we don't have the engines ready for it yet, can you come back in a decade or so?"
He can afford drones to have everyone's vulnerability on standby. Like one has a book of carrots to dangle for his employees for the times they start thinking about unionizing.
Nice! I've been saying we have real-life supervillains for years. What is a villain with billions of dollars if not super? Wait, I guess it's a trillian now... These lockdowns have been very profitable for certain people...
Yeah and superman would do nothing to fight it. He fights criminals and everything Bezo's is doing is legal. He would have to throw away his morals or change the way he fights the problem. Irl the villains aren't usually these dastardly people creating and using deadly weapons for obviously evil purposes. They're banal but the shit they do is longer lasting and has a more devastating impact on the people around them. That's why that sociopathic business man in the boys is scarier than the strongest "super hero" that he owns
@@blargh3428 That was the whole point about why Lex Luthor is Superman's greatest enemy. There's nothing he can actually do against people like Lex as all his skills revolve around physical power and rely on being able to get away with vigilante justice.

Making money is a competition. Even for a normal job, you have to win over someone else for position. It is not black and white in a capitalist world.

Actually, if you think about it, Superman really should look incredibly weak. Because you see, his muscles are so strong for their mass, that nothing he does would be a workout to them, so they should naturally atrophy. If one of your muscle fibers could lift 10 tons, what would you do on Earth that would provide you with any exercise?
i almost marvel at how the showrunners at amazon prime made the corporate greed of an unstoppable monopoly the greatest evil in the show whilst also making the main antagonist a cross between superman and the republican ex-president jeff bezos had beef with. and then also pretending they were only making fun of disney with the other stuff
Honestly I would rather have Lex because he's done some good even if it is to just boost public image I mean he literally built a city with Virtually unlimited free electricity and was ready to make everything affordable and everyone to get a job and even more do his best to insure there was no homeless, Jeff do that then maybe I'll like you enough to not want you to lose everything you have
I totally forgot that Superman did that. Would just float in space listening for trouble. You should do something with the end of the wolverine origins film with Deadpool. Keep having wolverine's brother I think it's sabertooth they made him his brother I think I don't even remember..... But you should have them fighting his brother and keep leaving openings for like great one liners and Deadpool can't talk.... And something needs to happen that's always Deadpool like a giant chimichanga or something and then Deadpool just cuts off his own head with his laser hands. Enjoyed the channel thanks for the videos
