An uncoordinated rant about everything, because this show and a certain part of the fandom is starting to get annoyingâŚ
Disclaimer: everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Iâm not saying nobody is allowed to enjoy the show or certain pairings, Iâm just stating my personal view!
Iâve stopped watching Super-Social-Justice, oh, sorry âSupergirlâ early on in the fourth season. I just could not stand the âcharacter developmentâ of anyone. Sorry, if itâs your favourite season, personally, I hated that it stopped being about Kara. Anyways, all I know about the current events is from what Iâve seen on social media and posts about *ugh* SuperCorp, so feel free to correct me if I make some glaring mistakes. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, however, I am not a fan of Lena. I started watching the show because of Katie and Jeremy, so I had high hopes for their characters (and low expectations for the show overall, so I was positively surprised by how much I loved the first three seasons) From the very beginning, Lena was what you would call a âmorally greyâ character. I was hoping they would do something like with Morgana, but I just kept getting more and more disappointed. I hate that she constantly gets those âredemptionâ episodes when sheâs clearly selfish and power-hungry. I donât like how people say sheâs a hero, because every time she helps Superfriends (and gets all of the credit for saving the day) she never does it out of the goodness of her heart. She always has a motive and itâs never good. And the constant play at being the victim is really getting on my nerves. Basically, she seems to believe sheâs the only one with a tough lifeâŚ
Lena: You donât know how hard it is to be related to someone evil! Of course, I donât trust anybody and will most likely use or kill you if you stand in my way! Thatâs because my childhood was so terrible!
Kara:âŚ
Winn:âŚ
Mon-El:âŚ
Brainy:âŚ
I like that every character has their flaws. You donât have to make them âperfectâ to be likeable. Itâs those imperfections that make a character more relatable. But there is nothing relatable or cute about a character who keeps endangering everybody else for their own gain and doesnât ever do anything to make it up for them.
I canât wait for Winn and Mon-El to come back and see what a mess the past is. âSeriously, weâve left you to fight evil AIs and you are this close to completely destroying our world?â And Winn would love to have a long discussion with every single person but he has what is probably the worst case of a time-jet-lag, so he will deal with them after heâs had his nap and a lot of ice cream and pizza with a Disney marathon. He doesnât want to hear about any more drama until him and Mon-El has had at least three days to rest!
Dear creators of âSupergirlâ, erasing all of the LGBT representation and PoC, only to queerbait with two conventionally attractive white women is not progressive. Refusing to show men as capable yet sensitive and making them into replaceable, straight âundesired love interestâ and not giving them credit for anything, therefore making them bland or just erasing them from the plot is not progressive. Sqeezing women into tight dresses and giving them out of nowhere all of those ridiculous achievements is not progressive. Completely changing a well-recognised female characterâs design just to put them into what is basically a copy of a manâs suit is not progressive (seriously, if Kara hated the skirt so much, why didnât she say so sooner? I donât hate the new suit, just donât see how itâs a sign of feminism). You do know that feminism is about equality for all, and not the power of white, straight and wealthy women, right?
