    Average lib media story: villain rightfully points out systemic problems, protagonists think they're too extreme, villain is revealed to be some cliched cartoonishly evil strawman (or does some out-of-character deranged acts), villain is disposed of, the only potential change is a relatively minor shakeup in leadership of the setting (if at all), everyone pretends systemic problems no longer exist though the status quo is basically preserved at the end

        Na, The ending of that Captain America Disney plus show that had Anthony Mackie (a black man who's now captain America) saving some politicians and then having the cringiest almost parody scene of lecturing them about how their actions and corruption hurt people and it's all tied up nicely. Played off like the evil career politicians learned their lesson and because of a strong America inspired speech they will stop doing racism. I don't think ill ever experience a more liberal story in my life.

          I dunno, Black Panther's story literally revolves around a legitimately deposed hereditary monarch couping the government with the help of the CIA played off as heroic

          That was the most lib-brained ending of all time but it did have newcap saying "we should listen to the terrorists" on disney plus and I thought that was funny

      'scuse me, you can't just steal the writers' personal notes from Legend of Korra from their homes and just post them on the internet for all to see like that.
