Why wasn't he an anarchist or liberal or whatever hard leftist

Why wasn't he an anarchist or liberal or whatever hard leftist alignment like Oliver was in comic books? That's kind of a huge part of the character, isn't it?

Without that, he's just "green Batman", isn't he? They took away everything just to strip him down to "rich guy with a bow"

And there was plenty of opportunity in the show for him to express a political agenda, and with his run for mayor it could have been expanded further. Instead, he's always just about "protect muh city"

Staying politically nuetral allowed them to cast a wider net.

He specifically hunts corrupt rich people in Season 1. That's pretty Green Arrowish; very Robin Hood. Batman beats up poor people with mental illnesses.

>politically nuetral

what about all the progressive character stuff? like the gay people, the diversity?

Seems divisive, but it didn't stop them from doing it anyway

Does it ever feel like the last two seasons were the writers saying, 'how the fuck do we write our way out of the fact our main character has a double digital body count'?

Well, his personality is different than Batmans as well, but since he doesn't have one in this, it doesn't really matter.

I remember when he did stuff with arrows

now he punches people with his bow, and I don't understand why. Shit, even Speedy and Arsenal punched people with the bow

Always cracks me up. Liberals are right-wing outside the US.

They never should have tried to give him Batman's no kill code. The guys uses arrows for fucks sake.

What Americans would define as liberals would be seen as conservative outside the US, yes. But your statement is not how the definition of the word 'liberal' works.
>>
>>86602934

A degree of pandering is unavoidable in this day and age, but if you keep it off the main character and don't make it the focus, then most of the people with differing political views can grit their teeth and bear It when it comes on. They may bitch about it online, but they won't drop it like a hot potato.

>implying anywhere outside of the US matters

Go back to crying on your kangaroo wife's shoulder about Brexit in your grass hut in Eardley.

They kinda did that in season 1, he was against the rich and corrupt, they just had a different reason for it
