They aren\\\'t shown as TrueNeutral but as, at best, LawfulEvil, opposed by ChaoticEvil Lovecraft-inspired entities; there is no \\\"one true vision\\\", just a lot of contradictions, no matter that some outspoken online fans prefer to focus on just selective parts; DisproportionateRetribution style eternal torture and even more so ridiculous levels of AcceptableHardLuckTargets style MoralDissonance really has turned into the most dominant message in superhero cosmic, along with the addiction rather than enjoyment focus (it\\\'s no coincidence that so many former fans have switched to anime such as OnePiece due to DarknessInducedAudienceApathy) and FredVanLente is just the latest in a row who stated outright that anyone he (or maybe rather DanteAlighieri) doesn\\\'t like, i.e. the vast majority of all sentient beings will be ParanoiaFuel tortured forever and ever, and deserve to be so (after a sufficient amount of material at least on par with ThreeHundred it turns extremely hard not to see the viewpoints of a considerable amount of \\\"creators\\\" as MoralMyopia crypto-fascism, or at least part of what they produce really does come across that way); and I have barely fit in anything of what I\\\'ve been saying into the article itself, certainly not remotely beyond the usual standard for articles, and the point of this place is dumbfounded DeadpanSnarker DailyShow deconstruction. You get the lies and incoherent glorifications of absolute evil everywhere else, but here you get the truth with a dose of laughter, that\\\'s the main point of this place as I see it. This is to entertainment what the DailyShow is to news. Some place needs to cut past the falsehoods and get straight to the core essence past the catchy slogans. There are plenty of places for everything else. I\\\'m LiteralMinded, with extremely limited filters, so I automatically think like this place, and in that respect is well-suited for it, but the flipside is that I also don\\\'t filter the output well, so it recurrently turns too long.
Anyway, I am obviously willing to compromise, as long as you focus on quality/flow and not on PolishTheTurd. Personally I think that all continuity should be scrapped altogether, so that each artist team would be free to focus entirely on story to create their own version of reality, without being bogged down by a Mussolini-Nietzsche-Lovecraft-Rand-Macchiavelli ideology mixture. The world doesn\\\'t need any more of that, and after finally managing to roughly process all of the nightmarish destructive impressions in-depth, I personally even like TheSuperheroSquadShow considerably better than what they fed us with. Then again, I\\\'m autistic, more than medium but less than extreme, and this sort of neverending halfbaked incoherent stuff should seriously have a parental warning warning label as extremely dangerous for autistic children. Again, I haven\\\'t included this on the page however, but I\\\'m extremely ill at ease with depicting these entities/characters with blind reverence.
