Finally caught up on this.
God damn. How do you not get on team Homelander. Dude is completely fucked up but at least his motives are clear as day and honorable. Soldier Boy was actually honest in an endless pit of liars and thieves.
Butcher being a cuck piece of shit after he told a man who only ever wanted a family means he can suck it.

Not that this is following the comics anymore but Butcher is a cunt just like everyone else. Kripke has created and improved on characters/story but also fucked up a ton. As much as I love Soldier boy, I want the black noir storyline

Shit, I think Alonso hates his character and the show. He plays some parts wayyy to fkn good, unlike A-Train which.. his look pretty much matches his characters actions.

you have to watch the extended cut to see the Forrest Gump deleted scene where
Soldier Boy secretly played golf with Hitler while using Jews as ball holders
Soldier Boy picked up a giant rock and threw it at Malcolm X saying GO BACK TO AFRICA this was where the saying we didn't land on Plymouth Rock, it landed on us came from
Soldier Boy spit on the first black girl who walked into integrated schools
Soldier Boy was out drinking and whoring with James Earl Ray the night before MLK was assassinated and told Ray that a bullet would fix all of MLKs dreams
Soldier Boy was actually a sniper on the hill during JFKs Dallas drive
Soldier Boy beat a tranny to death during the stonewall riots because the tranny tried to flirt with him
Soldier Boy was in the car that drove Emmett Till around
There was a brief throwaway dialogue of someone mentioned how SB was hosing down protestors in the 60s and something else but yeah it was bizarre how everyone kept SAYING Soldier Boy was the worst but we literally didn't see any of it, other than him randomly blacking out and blowing up when hearing Russian music. I figured they knew Jensen Ackles makes ladies wetter than Miami and didn't want female viewers to get turned off.

The line was "Target practice in Montgomery" but that probably just means coke bottles and a BB gun...
Right?
I agree - I wish they had shown more of *why* Soldier Boy is a piece of shit. Only thing we really get as an audience is that he fucked up Black Noir (and who cares if a piece of shit beats the fuck out of another piece of shit?) or that he says/acts the way I would think a guy who lived during the WW2 era would think and talk.
The racist line felt off, but also kinda appropriate I guess? But as an audience I see SB as discriminating against everyone, because he sees almost everyone the same (theyre all just lesser than him). So having MM call him that was kinda off.
Otherwise, was a great season imo

Think it's implied that history repeated itself and it's the same reason everybody hates Homelander.

They showed a little bit of his reactions to present day Manhattan and the people that he saw there. Some fags, some joggers both at whom he shook his head. But thats not enough to establish that he is racist or homophobe. Then again, its 2022 and any amount of wrongthink is evil so I guess the worthless writers thought it was enough.

i got the impression from MM that he thought SB was racist specifically because he was doing the same thing that blue hawk was doing. though i might have just inferred that?
SB isn't a good guy, but he suffers from the same thing that homelander does in that the actor that portrays him is just so charming that you can't help but cut them slack

His reaction feels normal for what I would expect out of someone who is from the WW2 era and put into present day - social issues and the world has changed a ton in 50+ years. SB's portrayal feels more realistic compared to how Captain America went through this same 'man out of time' theme
And in those scenes, maybe he showed a little bit of disgust? I dunno, to me it felt more like a culture shock moment for him more than anything else.
They just needed to write 1/2 scenes showing SB doing something as horrific as Homelander/Meave did with the plane scene in s1 to really get the audience to buy in why SB is worse than Homelander and why his team betrayed him (his team is a bunch of pos in their own right, so loss of credibility there).

Frankly, even SB's reaction to the gay couple read more like 'This us what they're doing now!?' than 'Time to murder'.
There is no textual evidence for the racism, its standard democratic dogma that all nonwhites are flawless and any white that is over 25 or so should be cancelled if not murdered.
