Fresh hot reddit slop drama: mods of r/thepunisher are deleting this every time it gets posted... for "political appropriation".

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 71 points 1 week ago

every time he is still proven correct

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 42 points 1 week ago (1 children)

data-laughing

That's great

A character built around the concept of giving every piece of shit exactly what they have coming is giving a piece of shit exactly what they have coming and they can't handle it

[–] Red_October@hexbear.net 24 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Welllll he also considers drug users deserving of being massacred in the streets. The mods are probably upset this is too far left.

The writer basically has final say over which societal ill should be solved with bullets

Unfortunately, this means that (like nearly every comic book character) his politics are inscrutable outside of specific story arc.

Hell, he's been a mob boss, a Frankenstein, an angel and even did blackface

The Punisher is a land of contrasts

That is true but it makes the “political appropriation” excuse even more funny. You could make a fan comic about him napalm bombing a furry convention and another about him being the guy who actually shot Charlie Kirk. He’s kinda like cumtown personified.

Cumtown is a podcast about wrapping yourself in books to make makeshift body armor so you can kill an evil high school principal

I don't think there are many, if any, punisher stories with that take.

[–] Red_October@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

Oh man. You don’t know the video game? It got censored like Manhunt 2. Fun as fuck but yeah no the punisher does not care about harm reduction.

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 34 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Hell yeah

Hope they don't fire him

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 31 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Bit too late, innit? Already applied that 5.5 pounds of pressure 'n all that.

The only good version of the Punisher

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago

Strong wolfenstein vibes

What is that gun though

The diagonal frame cuts are like a H&K or a sig. It's kinda like a Sig P229? I'm not a punisher expert but I thought he was traditionally shown to favor a 1911 acp.

Edit: I think it's a Springfield 1911 actually

Looks a lot like a Hi-point lmfao

The punisher uses The People's Gun

[–] OffSeasonPrincess@hexbear.net 20 points 1 week ago

I HC that ICE goon has a punisher skull tattoo and assumed hed be on their side

[–] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago

I'm so here for leftist punisher.

The best way to make a Punisher comic is to show in no uncertain terms that Frank Castle is a dangerous and unstable individual who should never ever ever be around guns or other human beings

And then immediately show a guy who's even more fucked up and send Castle after him

[–] hollowmines@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago

this goes hard as fuck, respect, and also condolences for the mountain of bullshit this person will likely deal with as a result

[–] DogThatWentGorp@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

I can feel the devil plastering Kris Kyles's wall with this in his cell deep deep in hell.

Like the tiled wall texturing of a custom TF2 surf map named something like "waifu half pipe" being replaced by a crusty jpeg of Rei Evangelion's face.
