I have no context but in a vacuum it looks like pointless men bashing.
The characters depicted are literal demons. in the show, demons are actually monsters with no redeeming qualities who do nothing but plot and scheme to kill people. humanoid demons popped up and learned human language in order to trick humans and lower their guard, at which point they kill them. these characters are no exception.
this dialogue happens after a demon prevents a human from killing him by claiming his own father was killed in a war between humans and demons, and that he wants to end the war just like the human does. when walking away, the demon's subordinate asks him what a father is, and the demon replies he has no idea, basically showcasing their demonic deception.
I'm really not sure why the op posted this, it makes perfect sense in context and it doesn't feel like any sort of culture war thing.
It is relevant to the culture war, but not in the way the OP implies. Like these demons, a leftist will claim to care about things humans care about to gain a tactical advantage, despite not caring or hating it themselves - like how they went from gleefully waiting for the elderly to die for being conservatives to demanding authoritarian powers to protect them from COVID (while deliberately sending a criminally insane twenty year old plague rat into their nursing home).
i posted this because i thought it was funny that demons have no fathers, .
Demons have no concept of fathers or family. I forget it it's pointed out how they reproduce.
The important thing is that a demon wouldn't understand or recognize the idea of a father if they had one, or a human connection of any kind even.
no. the characters are demons and have no fathers. Demons have no fathers. That's the context.
