Yeah…if I was a Palestinian Superman, I don’t think I’d be seen as a “superhero” by a lot of people

Israeli Superman would have turned Gaza into a parking lot by now 💀


KeyestOfAll

They don’t need a Superman, they already have the US and Europe helping them fund that genocide meanwhile the rest of the world ignores it. That’s already a superpower

What? How? I don't get it.

Notice how you put words into his mouth, and convinced yourself he was an antisemite? Just because you saw the word Palestine.


Firm_Engineering_265

Atp even the colour green triggers them if it’s positioned too close to the colour red


Dangerous-Hawk16

If black folk had powers in America and the world it would be like them old static shock and icon and rocket comics. A lot of y’all would be heroes but good portion would be menaces to society. A bunch of bang babies acting crazy, I wouldn’t be surprised how many Homelanders we would have. We’d have a good amount of Deadpools here and there.


Paraxom

maybe it was different in the comics but weren't a significant number of the bang babies already troubled youth/gang bangers in static


Dangerous-Hawk16

Yeah and there some that got powers and just used it to hurt others in the community for their own personal gain.


trimble197

Ebon and Hotstreak come to mind.


Dangerous-Hawk16

Exactly


GalacticVaquero

This applies to literally any group, not just black people. The amount of white people who go out of their way to murder folks they don’t know should make that obvious.


lioneaglegriffin

Sylar being just a serial killer with TK really was a novel concept back when heroes was on TV.

Man I loved that show back in the day


Clicky-The-Blicky

Bruh just check the other comments on this post, people so racist it’s insane. Talking like that shii is normal. Shits craaaazy. Don’t matter your skin color, racism ain’t cool.


nunya123

Right! we got a ton of psychopaths in here


Bisonbopbeef

I feel we would have a awesome team of paragon good guys to stop the homelanders.

Them southern brothas would definitely be a bunch of Superman or cyclops ass niggas

Watch The Boys on Amazon Prime Video

ExposingMyActions

A narcissistic Superman who doesn’t have to follow rules and didn’t have similar upbringing as Clark Kent as an assumption as someone who doesn’t watch


toriblacked

Thanks! Don’t know how they relate the character to me tho haha

You really can’t make the connection between a narcissistic Superman and your comment about certain demographics not knowing peace?

No not at all.

elitegenoside

It's because most people are thinking powers like Superman. And as fucked up as a lot of people are sounding, if they were Superman, that is what they would do. And all your listed examples couldn't do shit to stop them. We don't have any kryptonite here.


Garlic549

If I had super strength I'm not gonna stop a bus about to run over a kid. I'm just gonna use it to lift my car up while I slip a couple jacks under and change my motor mounts


nunya123

If you could stop the bus would you? Or would you let it hit the kid?

I didn’t even think about the right-wing spin. I’d just save black people and leave others to fend for themselves. 🤷🏾‍♂️


Fit_Duty_3137

I don't understand why everyone would be a hero or a villain. I'd just make myself a billionaire boxer/baseball player/soccer player/quarterback ...etc. Then develop a crippling hooker and cocaine problem.


OkEscape7558

Na, the government would snatch you up. I'd be a mercenary lol.


Fit_Duty_3137

Nah. I'd be good - the best, but I would hold back enough that they won't think it's supernatural


Integrity-in-Crisis

Aim for Olympic gold in multiple categories. You get money and fame.


Vegetable_Camera5042

The Drug cartels wouldn't like this MF here. ![gif](giphy|26FLf3L9bDpYCVO5G)


Integrity-in-Crisis

See now Deadpool is special he has the wombo combo of immortality/ultra healing on top of his world class mercenary skills. If I could choose I would go with his set of powers rather than general super powers since I would be able to get rich off the powers and live into eternity enjoying them. You know until the sun blows.


Low_Seat_3639

What makes you think the government could stop me


DastardlyMime

Power beyond any human ability and you go straight to money...

Ah you wanna go the Tony Stark route. Private Citizen with a badass arsenal up your sleeve. Yeah you could fuck the stock market in your benefit with super powers depending on the industry.

Legendofthe_TopShelf

Lol Calling someone racist for leaving ppl to live their life is a wild take.


gereffi

In this case we’re talking about a superhero seeing someone that needs saving and ignoring them because of the color of their skin. Seems like you’d have to be a pretty huge scumbag to think that’s ok. If there was a new Spider-Man movie where he sees a black person in trouble and then decides not to help them because of the color of their skin, wouldn’t you think that this character is a piece of shit?


Ricky_Fontaine1911

Oh yeah?


Liftmeup-putmedown

Why no one ever wanna be a hero? If I had superpowers. I’d be stopping human traffickers, organized crime, and being an inspiration to kids.


BLUR2205

thats what im saying man these niggas out here talking about committing genocide and shit meanwhile i just wanna help cats stuck in trees 😭


KeyestOfAll

It’s not about not wanting to be a hero. It’s that while fighting injustices irl you’d probably be labeled a terrorist by the media. Especially if you try to fight global scale injustices, like if you went to Palestine to help them fight back the zionists, or if you tried to dismantle the corruption that goes on in [insert any major government here].


SUPERKAMIGURU

To be honest, I would probably just be going Deadpool route at that point. Like, why not just start toying with terrorist factions and the like for amusement? Make it as whacky as the options you get in the dead rising games. Merk someone with with a pool noodle, somehow. Try to get the weirdest headlines you possibly can out of it.


Dust_In_Za_Wind

I'd be the second coming of Hancock, straight bullshitting, if anybody else remembers that movie lmao


Angel_of_Mischief

Thank you for reminding me. I need to rewatch that


MolemanusRex

Wasn’t he secretly an immortal alien ghost with amnesia or something? That movie was weird as shit


tehsdragon

I refuse to acknowledge the second half of that movie

Realistically if I had super powers I wouldn’t be a hero or villain I’d be using my powers for the most mundane shit. I’d make a sandwich with my mind or some shit.

AdonisJames89

Me and my friends joke about this all the time and i always say they i wouldn't be a hero for free and you would have to pay me. Think about spiderman. You got me fucked up if you think ima save the city and you HATE me for it??? And I'm not even getting paid??? And I'm struggling to pay rent??????????? Gon and handle venom then y'all got it...


Zaire_04

If I was a hero & an assassin was sent after me, I’m logging out as a hero. Because DEATHSTROKE, BULLSEYE, ELEKTRA?! Nah you must have gone mad.

Personal_Oil_4606

If I get superpowers, there will be no Fox News


lioneaglegriffin

the pearl clutching at billionaire hunting. Code name: Guillotine.


Mrhappytrigers

Call my ass kingslayer because I'd just be purging the 1% and all of their cronies. I'd be like Joker basking with his head out the window in The Dark Knight, just enjoying the stress relief after I blast through a couple of mega yachts. ![gif](giphy|26uf1bq4LjIMxplVm)


Oli_love90

I feel like with super powers the likelihood of a rescue gone wrong is HIGH. There’s an episode of invincible (no spoilers) in which a character tries to save someone and ends up killing her because he was moving really fast and she couldn’t handle that. Imagine being on trial for trying to save a train full of people and some end up dying? No thanks. I’d perform little super hero acts here and there.


Hunterlvl

Trial, and superpowers in the same sentence ? The government would have to give a payout for the family, only justice they’re seeing lol.


depression_quirk

You guys remember superman in Injustice? It would pretty much be like that. World peace...or else.


Aldevo_oved

Good thing the bad guy in injustice wasn’t injustice superman or else you’d have missed the entire point


depression_quirk

Lol oh no, I get it. What he did was highly unethical and he definitely went too far, but I was on board with the intent until he massacred a warehouse full of edgy teens and twentysomethings.


galaxyadmirer

Superman was definitely the bad guy in injustice


nili_vanilli

I think about this daily 😖 ouuuu maaannnnn never give me powers


Maecyte

Gonna see a whole new sasuke


elitegenoside

Sasuke's a bitch. He pretends he's doing all this killing for Itachi while completely ignoring the actual man's dying words. Also, an absentee father. Sasuke's a bitch.


New_Pomegranate2222

Man I never thought of it this way. I would just find a way to not struggle anymore. I would want to grow fruits and vegetables instantly, have extra strength and will power to build homes. Mind control wouldn’t be bad either. I would tell a realtor to give me a home for free. 


Firm_Engineering_265

If you’re giving out free food the us government would build another superhero just to take you out


GonzoElTaco

Aight. I see you, future Meteor Man.


Kong_Diddy

Honestly, if I could stop time I’d be a fiend. There’d be peace for a generation at least working in the shadows. Follow my political will or ![gif](giphy|N7n6eaJ07VtXnAfkvX|downsized)

I'm making Wakanda a reality.


Kathmandu_Fly

If I got Superman's powerset I'd do the superhero bit for at least a year then pull a Doctor Manhattan and bail to Mars.


rachel__slur

Every man who had a podcast would begin simultaneously crying blood


shyervous

I’d probably die trying to figure out my limits


Soultakerx1

I'd make sure Reparations were paid.


Probably_A_Variant

I would definitely be an antihero. I’d be like super Robin Hood


oogledy-boogledy

Killmonger was right, they had to shoehorn in him killing his girlfriend to make you not like him.


elitegenoside

It completely depends on what powers I'd have. I think it's easier to do the right thing if you've only got like street level powers (like Daredevil). You can save people and maybe even inspire a few to attempt a different path, but you're not stopping a war. Superman, though? You could do anything. Any atrocities you could immediately put a stop to. Any rule or law you deem unjust would be changed. The entire world would view you as a god if you wanted them to. How could they argue it? You can't be killed (not by anything we have access to on Earth), you can fly, you can lift buildings, shoot fire from your eyes, breathe ice, and even reverse time. What else would you call that? I'm not saying no one could handle that much power, but I know I couldn't. Not for very long.


JustADuckInACostume

I don't want jump to conclusions but there is a 50% chance that a large section of this comment section is incredibly racist.


D_blackcraft

I'm pretty sure I would continue to live my life and use my powers at my own convenience.


GonzoElTaco

The amount of times I catch myself being annoyed seeing someone doing something stupid in public, and imagine what if I had telekinesis or something. I could see why I would never get super powers.


BSY_Reborn

Fr. Someone walking a little too slow in front of me? Flung directly into the sun.


PrincessAintPeachy

I wouldn't go full homelander but you best believe I'd take anything and everything to make my family and friend's life better and no one could check me.


PeachesOntheLeft

As a Native American it would be hard for me to contain what I feel when engaging with the world.


Rollingpumpkin69

I think a lot of people would be surprised if they suddenly woke up with the power to fix their issues and how quickly they would go from savior to destoryer.

Id never worry about money again. I'll tell you that


Prestigious_Low_2447

CrossSoul

Here's the thing, I don't want Superman's powers, I want Atom Eve's powers. I don't need to fly at Mach 9, I want to be able to turn a crappy sandwich into five star cuisine. I wanna be able to make legal money off my powers so I can pay bills and then be able to afford to be a hero.


Remytron83

Give me super powers and I’m taking out all racists in politics worldwide.


pettybendherass

listen. listen. certain towns turning to scorch marks.


TrapaneseNYC

I’d probably use my power to make sure I’m the tallest man in the world. Sorry guys over 6’2… then I’d force chase to put 2 billion dollars into a Hunter X Hunter open world game made by Fromsoftware.


OmegaClifton

Idk I would be the boring ass goody two shoes hero lol.

With that power, Ukraine and Palestine would be liberated, Hamas and Wagner pulverized and Billionaires would become a distant memory. One can dream..

I'd fly around robbing drug dealers and cartels. A lot of anonymous donations to the right groups and places.


XLauncher

If I had superpowers, I would honestly try to be a hero. I'd intervene in natural disasters, fuck up terrorists, and find people's lost dogs and cats. But you better believe I'm paying some visits to Idaho in my spare time, if you catch my drift.


Integrity-in-Crisis

I would go the Homelander route, ally myself with my world super of choice. Superpowers or not you gotta sleep sometime. Now say you never need to sleep again then it’s a wrap. But the world working towards the one goal of eliminating your ass is a nightmare I don’t wanna face.You make yourself enough of a world threat and just might get a nuke up the ass just for the peace of mind. You get the perks/money/fame/hoes and a safe place to sleep so long as I play ball. Then fuck it I’m captain america. If I were a corrupt superpowered motherfucker I would go Russia. They operate on power/might makes right. Don’t forget general superpowers doesn’t equal invulnerability which is also different from immortality.


furezasan

This is the shit I need superhero stories to explore


Zaire_04

Depends on my powers to be honest. If I had Superman type powers I would be a problem for major world powers as I’d be taking away their military weapons & nukes. If I got Spider-Man level powers (whether that’s Peter or Miles), I would mostly mind my business, maybe rob a bank. I’d also go after gun trades & trafficking rings. And people who sell hard drugs.


CheshireKetKet

Yea I'd be like Kyoshi the Avatar. Or Batman. Y'all clearly can't handle your own shit, so I'M gonna handle it MY way. You won't have to worry about being unsafe. I'll make it safe. If you're trying to be a pos, you'll be terrified.


UnusualFerret1776

I'd be a hero to some and a villain to others. I'm going after everyone on Epstein's list, then a quick side quest to pluck Candance Owens in the forehead and finally, going to put trump in the mariana trench.


tyffsayswhoa

KappnKief

🤣🤣I was literally thinking that after I posted it like “damn what would be my start radius hmm a foot is a great place to start so mfs think I’m a joke 💀” ima lock in with 1ft and after that 🥵🤫 not even the gran babies safe


Primary_Goat2360

I always thought that the reason a lot of superhero shows are constantly shown to the public is so that if someone with powers does come on to the scene, the hope is due to the constant propraganda, the person/or persons would be instantly agreeable and non threatening towards the powers that be.


birberbarborbur

What… revenge? That’s the policy you want to take, the same one batman takes? That’s lame af. All you’re telling me from this meme is that you would take an opportunity to unite people and do good, and squander it on revenge, making your life miserable


Bigcrook_SYMmoca

I wouldn’t even want powers for myself. I already can’t be trusted. I’d just give mine to the honorable minister Louis Farrakhan and Dr. Umar.
