After last night’s episode of Supergirl, I’ve just about had it with this show.
I mean, it can’t get any more mind-numbingly liberal than this! We have the unnamed female president show up and Supergirl is just gushing over her: i’m sorry, maybe we should replace the S on her boobs with a big H pointing right. Or maybe that’s a bit too on-the-nose, huh? But wait, there’s more! Kara is given an assignment to cover Lena Luthor’s new alien tracking device. After she writes a piece that wouldn’t be out of place in CNN, MSNBC, or Cat Grant’s uber-biased rag (they’re all the same), Snapper Carr shuts her paper down for the biased piece of trash it is! Now obviously he’s being built up to be the bad guy (why else is he an old, fat, balding, curmudgeonly white guy?), but what he says is true: write the facts, let the people make their own opinions. But i guess we can’t trust people to make up their own minds, huh? That would be an aspect of the “xenophobic right”, as they so lovingly put it.
But what’s this? The truth actually came out in this episode! Kara was being a little racist herself against the Daxumite, just like how the party she so brazenly espouses has consistently been in the past. Furthermore, it’s hinted that the female president Kara was just gushing over might actually be an alien in disguise and this could be another ruse to tear apart the planet. But what do we care, because Token was there to save Kara from the mean old guy with his facts and his unbiased writing! After all, fair and balanced is what Fox does, and how dare liberals be fair and balanced! They have an agenda to push!
Don’t even get me started on that annoying side-character, whose place was to show Alex up at every crime scene while spitting out in every other sentence “DID I TELL YOU I’M GAY?!!!”
