If you watched the season finale of "The Boys," then you were probably as let down and annoyed as everyone else was. If you didn't watch it, or don't even know what I'm talking about, then let me sum up what went down.
The main villain of the show was turned into an allegory of Donald Trump, and he was killed off after pathetically begging for his life with promises of sexual favors and eating feces. He was a Superman kind of figure. A man with super strength, laser eyes, and flight, and his name was "Homelander," just to drive the point home that he was kind of America's superhero.
It was pretty clear to everyone that the writers were living out an anti-Trump fantasy, but what was interesting about this one is that they made this allegory an all-powerful demigod-like figure, took his power, and then killed him in a way that exposed his "true" character. Without his power, he's a cowardly brat, which is something that's more or less spoken aloud by the protagonist before he deals the final blow.
I'll spare you the clip because the show isn't really the point; it's what was represented.
It's a common theme you see throughout many leftist creations, and it's that power is ultimately evil and anyone who has it is ultimately villainous.
In the leftist mind, there is no good or evil. Morality is wholly subjective. The only thing that is black and white is power structures. The haves are bad, the have-nots are good. The have-nots cannot be evil because they sit at the bottom of the power structure, and as a result, anything they do is fine.
They can steal, assault, even rape and kill, and justifications will be made to keep the holiness of the have-nots intact.
A good example of this is Luigi Mangione, who stands accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. As I wrote back in April of 2025, Taylor Lorenz called the act "revolutionary":
“You’re going to see women especially that feel like, Oh my God, right? Like, here’s this man, who, who’s revolutionary, who’s famous, who’s handsome, who’s young, who’s smart. He’s a person that seems … like this morally good man, which is hard to find.”

And I think that word is very poignant, because to the left, revolution is kind of the only thing they see as the "ultimate good."
Revolution means displacement of the powerful, who are the "ultimate evil." So revolutions or revolutionary actions like murder are, in the minds of the left, moral actions.
The issue is that the lack of a real moral compass doesn't give them a point where they've accomplished their ultimate fix for their ultimate problems.
If they do succeed in killing the powerful people in charge, they would just be replaced with a new set of powerful people. If they collapsed the system they see as oppressive, they would only replace it with a system that promoted a different group of people to be more powerful than the rest. They will never see an end to the enemies they have to defeat. There will always be a new group of haves lording over the have-nots.
Brian Thompson was murdered, and UnitedHealthcare just replaced him with Tim Noel. Mangione ultimately accomplished nothing, except maybe getting the next guy in line promoted. The company is still going. No revolution actually took place, but in the minds of the left, they truly think they did something great. A murder took place, but that murder resulted in the death of someone considered powerful, so this "revolutionary act" was a moral practice.
The cycle cannot end. They're locked into this perpetual state of "fighting the man" that logically cannot end until there's one person on Earth.
It's anti-civilization, but the left has made it very clear that civilization is a problem on many levels. It is the same left that champions anti-natalism, after all.

If the ultimate good is to kill everyone a little better than you, then leftism is truly a selfish and disgusting ideology.
