For some reason I put in on (yay being sick and bored) and so far it seems pretty… anti-capitalist? Like, not even hidden anti-capitalist.

Is it actually worth watching?

    I really like it, because I always felt like The Boys is what supers would be if they existed. I don’t believe in Justice Leagues, in Avengers, even in Defenders. Hell, the only collective of supers my suspension of disbelief stays intact for is the Brotherhood of Mutants-- I believe that if you gave a human of this era the kind of powers of a Superman, or a Green Lantern, or a Charles Xavier, they’d abuse it every chance they got. The Boys feels like the demonstration of that thesis.

    Concur with some of the other commenters, though-- it could be so much more based than it currently is, cause it still has a lot of lib tendencies.
