If Superman and Captain America were real they'd be Liberal Progressive Democrats and the Red Skull would take O'Reilly's spot on Faux News.

You can just say communists, bro.
Kill yourself faggot.
Superman no, Captain America yes.

>interpreting comic book character's motives and ideals in such a way that certain positively viewed characters agree with your politcal ideology and outright villains belong to political parties you disagree with.
Yeah, Batman is totally a tea party republican, the Joker is a libertarian, Superman is a UKIP supporter, and Darkseid is a feminist.

Cap would have to be on the edge of the 1940s far-left to be considered anything other than a conservative today. If he was a moderate he'd be considered far-right.

Nice strawman Bizzaro, in real comics tea party republican and UKIP supporters are always the villains.

Steve Rogers was a poor, sickly, first generation child of immigrants (an oppressed one at that) art student with a gay friend, and was on welfare. If we looked at that background today we'd be saying he's tumblr sjw pandering depending on what kind of haircut they gave him.

I'm pretty sure 90% of the stuff you said either isn't canon or was only made canon in the last five years.
>>93656551
More like the last 10 or 15 maybe. The stuff I'm thinking of is from the Brubaker era or thereabouts. The gay friend thing is older still.
This was the guy that shared a title with a black superhero and they basically just drove around the country getting offended at racism and social inequality.

So DeMatteis gave Cap a gay friend because he hated Reagan, then after him no other writer has brought the character back.
See, this is one of the big problems with comicbooks, people want to bring up random shit that everybodies forgotten about and hasn't been brought up seen and then act like it's some vital part of a characters backstory.
Darmani Fuck off you stupid cunt.

Superman has always been progressive. Like his third appearance had him standing up for workers' rights against a corrupt mine owner. Plus, he's the ultimate immigrant.

Is that a question?
