#Lex isn’t really unpopular like he appears in a lot of fan content

Hey bestie, 7 and 12 for the violence ask game?

7. what character did you begin to hate not because of canon but because how how the fandom acts about them?

Might get shot on sight for this one. Talia al Ghul

She’s kind of hard to openly dislike because people immediately assume it’s because of racist retcons. Nope. I understand that she did not rape Bruce, they were both consenting. I understand that she loves Damian.

What I don’t fucking like is how the fandom trips over itself to make her morally gray at the very best and secretly good on the evil side at worst. NO!!!! SHE IS A VILLAIN. LET HER BE A VILLAIN. I have nothing against villain characters I love SEVERAL villain characters. She is not fucking morally gray!!!!! She is a significant member of the league of assassins!! The appeal of her romance with Bruce was that they were on opposite sides of the fight !!!! But people still rush to scream racism when you say she is a villain character and probably what most would consider a bad person

I understand that there were lots of really racist retcons and mischaracterisations. I’m not talking about those. I think she’s actually a cool character but I can’t stand her because everyone goes out of their way to throw out everything cool about her out of fear of being called racist if they make her look bad

12. the unpopular character that you actually like and why more people should like them

I think Lex Luthor is really funny. You are a grown bald ass man why are you beefing with sunshine incarnate. More people should like him outside of shitposts so we can talk more about what a fucking loser he is
