Qatari writers created Superman and basically all comic book heroes. This is just another example of Qatar's malicious influence on our culture.

Jokes aside, as terrible as the post-MCU world is, superheroes are better than not for American culture. It's a combination of the Qataris of yesteryear being less extreme in their ethnocentrism and the medium being the message.

Superheroes are a good example of stress tolerances. You can use superheroes to push a certain amount of social engineering, but you inevitably run up against a limit that is defined by the form of the thing itself.

For example, you can only inject so much multiculturalism propaganda into captain America before he ceases to be what he originally was. He’s not a symbol of America if his politics aggressively attack and subvert America. At some point, he just loses his power to influence Americans.

Feminism is another good example. Our superheroes have become so gynocentric - so subservient to and flattering of women - that their masculinity has disappeared. And that masculinity was what made them attractive in the first place.

You can’t endlessly shove anathematic ideas into an already defined vessel. Eventually, the vessel falters and can no longer contain the very ideas that made it popular and influential in the first place.
