TAGS: oh i wonder if this could have anything to do with the fact that one of the first things AOC did in office was prevent amazon from receiving $3B in tax breaks during their attempt to expand into New York. (An attempt that would have cost taxpayers heavily due to the fact amazon jobs are so exploitive that most workers have to rely on food stamps and government assistance just to barely survive.) Amazon is bad fucking news and AOC fought like hell to keep them out of her state, and now they've turned her into a literal supervillain in their most popular & heavily-advertised tv show. And people are somehow fine with it because the show producers used the exact same technique that they did with the (again. literal) feminazi: they introduce this progressive character as likeable, as one of the good guys, bc who could object to that? And then--oh what an exciting twist! the feminist and the progressive female politician are actually evil incarnate.

You know what superpower they gave AOC in the show? making people's heads explode. she literally murders people by exploding their heads. that is her superpower.

thinking about how season 2 of the amazon original The Boys features not only a literal feminazi (as in, a progressive feminist character who is revealed to be an actual member of hitler’s inner circle) but also a congresswoman character who is very obviously meant to serve as a stand-in for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez—and who in the season finale is revealed to be an evil supervillain responsible for terrorist attacks on american soil.

I have some concerns.
