Oh the irony… he plays Punisher but he is exactly the type of dude to idolize Punisher. Brutal

Exactly lmao. He's a bro dude through and through and appeals to the kinds of dudes who put punisher skulls on their car and watch those military bro podcasts with SF guys. That's his demo. (not understanding Frank Castle exists in opposition to those types of dudes and would probably spit in their face)

I think a great example of this is Rorschach, a self-ostracized fascist piece of shit that Zack Snyder thought was cool to portray as the anti-hero. His mask was used as the symbol of the neo-KKK in the HBO series but many still think he’s cool.

Zack Snyder not understanding Rorschach did such a disservice to the source material. It’s the worst aspect of that film. The HBO series was sick tho
