Found this on a reddit-logo post about Superman: Red Son. Clicked on the person’s profile to see more and surprise surprise their account is suspended.
The replies have some interesting takes too.

In particular you see it in Red Son Superman’s approach to justice and punishment, how he values a person’s utility to society far more than their free-will or personal beliefs. Arguably mind control is better than capital punishment and forced labor as practiced by stalin before him, but it still comes from the same desire to beat people into obedience as though they are misbehaved dogs.

    At times I still prefer this liberal-lite take. The people who talk about communists as devils and lunatics are really embracing their inner fascist. Seeing a commie as a mislead idealist shows a heart still ticking in there.
