I call these Rorschach moments, in honor of retarded communist comic book author Alan Moore, whose inverted moral compass made him think that Rorschach would be an insulting caricature of conservatives and not by far the most relatable and honorable character in Watchmen.
It’s a funny thing when leftists try to frame their political and cultural opponents as the loser bad guys in media - because those “far-right reactionary fascist” bad guys always end up being kind of awesome and thoroughly correct.
There's a set of Suicide Squad comics where one of the SS members (heh) is a J6er. Some guy named Wild Dog, who, in a roundabout way, is being proven right, since he's being threatened with death by an abusive government agency forcing him to perform black ops.
It did lead to an amusing panel where Firefly asks "While I do agree our thoughts are being regulated, you realize you work for the government now?"
They made Wild Dog a J6er? He was some hispanic dude in the Arrow tv show 🤣

He was a blonde white guy named Jack Wheeler. TV show race swapped him, like they do with a lot of characters.
Wheeler's name is mentioned in the trivia section of your Ramirez link.
Sure, but my point is that Rick's first appearance as the character was back in 2016. I'm guessing they kept the comic character a blonde white guy for the J6 plot as that happened less than 4 years ago. Both DC and Marvel have changed legacy characters due to live action adaptation, "MCU Synergy" if a term thrown around for that like with the Eternals changing their lineup to match the failed movie.
To the surprise of nobody here that didn't happen when the comics wanted to portray J6 bad and "white man bad" by pairing the two.
