Superman: Canceled ... Well, at Least His Trademark Catch-phrase

#1

DC Comics removing ‘the American way’ from Superman slogan
https://www.foxbusiness.com/entertainme ... man-comics
DC Comics, the longtime publisher of Superman comics, now says the Man of Steel stands for “truth, justice … and a better tomorrow”
Lee [Jim Lee, DC’s chief creative officer and publisher] declined to elaborate on why "the American way" was being discontinued. It has been linked to the character since the 1940s radio program "Adventures of Superman," according to the Hollywood Reporter.

The motto change was the second half of a recent 1-2 punch for fans of the traditional Superman. Last week came news that an upcoming Superman comic book will feature Jon Kent – son of Superman’s alter-ego, newspaper reporter Clark Kent – as a bisexual Superman.
What has the 21st century wrought? On a forum that deals with a different subject matter, someone posted a week ago about Senator and, for a brief period, Vice President Henry Wilson (1812 - 1875). The poster was astounded and flabbergasted that Wilson was a Republican and yet a strong opponent of slavery! A Republican! He posted how unbelievable that was and how the guy must have faced never-ending political battles over that affiliation.

I had to give a brief education about the political party of Abraham Lincoln, the majority party of Congress during Johnson's term (the Congress that fought against the so-called "Black Codes" of states that sought to limit the civil rights of freedmen and eventually voted to impeach Johnson over it, at least in part), and the political party of the next four presidents, Ulysses S. Grant, Rutherford B. Hayes, James Garfield, and Chester A. Arthur. It wasn't the Democratic party that led the government during emancipation, the Reconstruction, and Post-Reconstruction. Those were Republicans.

But what the heck. Who cares about the facts when you can be a lemming and believe all the pap coming out of the MSM and social media? Who cares about truth? Who cares about justice?

Up, up, and away!

Super Man is now considered a Rump Ranger. I suppose Loise Lane was all sexual confusion. The woke crowd won't stop until they have destroyed everything American.

I think the failing schools have left the public with a horribly inadequate understanding of history. Both American history and the history of Western civilization. The Marxists wallpaper over biology, history, religion, and reality itself. Understanding any of those subjects is fatal to the continued existence of the modern left.

Traveling to Europe there are "walls" everywhere. But somehow America is wrong to have a wall... "rlol"

I have no doubts the woke crowd would screw him up also. They would likely change him to a cat so as to be "inclusive". Undercat.

I think I read he will fight climate change and for “immigrant rights”.

Do I remember a George Reeve’s Superman where the Earth got really hot and he changed the Earths orbit to fight climate change? Or was that a Twilight zone?
