Homelander

🎲

A villain character from The Boys who some internet users ironically celebrate despite the show's writers positioning him as obviously evil.

"And the audience celebrates all of that because they are totally 'owning the chuds who idolize Homelander'. These people are genuinely patting themselves in the back because they are so brilliant that they can understand that the guy who kills people for laughs is the bad guy. Every time the writers"
The Boys has the most midwit audience of any TV show. · u/Atimo3 · ↑779 · 2025-01-17
"Irony and performative exaggeration is built into masculinity, so characters like Homelander don't dismantle it, they metabolize it."
Satire that attempts to mock masculinity reinforces it · u/Interesting_Pitch713 · ↑636 · 2025-10-25
