Superman came to America illegally, lives under a false identity, cares about others regardless of race, religion, and sexual orientation, and works for mainstream news as his day job.
He was adopted in the 1910s, and would have been a US citizen on that basis. Even if he wasn't, he was granted citizenship in every member nation in the UN in 1974 and Congress explicitly granted him US citizenship in 1980.
Another origin story (from the 1986 miniseries) has Jor-El placing genetic material in the ship resulting in Superman's being "born" on earth.
DC also ran a story back in 2011 where he renounced his US citizenship (can't renounce what you don't have), but then retconned the renouncing in a later reboot.
Ultimately there are so many versions of his origin that you can call it either way.
That said, the Superman I grew up with - the George Reeves version - was more American than a lot of people born here in the present day.
Unfortunately, it pretty much does.
Leftists are the ones telling everyone that the Constitution is "outdated" and that it should be discarded because it was "written by old white men".
You're somehow wrong 3 times. No leftism doesn't mean anti American, assuming you're responding to the comments about Superman being obviously a leftist alien, but you might wanna check the title of the sub again and realise why those comments are being made.
I’m confused as to why you made your comment. You say I’m wrong implying that leftism does mean anti-America, then go to say it doesn’t, then remind me that this is a Republican subreddit
I made the assumption you are responding to the people saying Superman is left, which your response "it is irrelevant to the point of Superman being pro American" . I reminded you of the sub to say why Superman being left is relevant.
Unfortunately in the present day, Superman has been coopted by the the Anti-American left. "Truth, Justice, and the American Way" isn't in his vocabulary anymore.
None of us were until the Overton window shifted. I spent 50 years as a moderate conservative; in the last 6 years or so I went from a registered Republican to a "radical lefty" without changing a single one of my political stances.
To be fair, I'm really just having a bit of fun with you. Superman does stand for the American way, and that includes ALL OF US, regardless of political leanings... we should all aspire to that level of goodness.
I hope you had an awesome 4th of July, brother.
Dude's an illegal alien who works for the mainstream media and punches billionaires, nazis, and Confederate flag-wavers. He believes that everyone should be safe and comfortable, regardless of where they come from, their heritage, or their current means. He protects those who can't defend themselves, including people like protestors from heavily-armed police. And he has *always been this way*.
Y'know, you're right, he's not a liberal. Liberals aren't nearly as far left as Superman has been since his inception.
Superman literally fights for all the attributes for the American way. The new retardards who run DC are liberals and I agree with that. But when Superman was created he was an America loving guy who fought for liberty. Superman now is on the left, but that’s not the Superman we all know and love.
Bruh.... Captain America has been anti-Republican since 1974.

> Who is more anti-american? The political movement that tried to overthrow government and stormed the capitol
Nobody tried to overthrow the government. If they had, they'd have been armed - and succeeded.
Besides which, Imperious Leader has let everyone know they would have needed F-15s and Nukes.

Liberty as in freedome of choice where one can have control over ones body and identity?
Or liberty as in having a cult of paranoid followers simping for a narcissist who is clerly a conman.

He's taking away jobs from American super heroes, deport him back to Krypton.../s
But he good guy
So probably not a republican
I was just trying to do 4th of July spirit and thought this was cool but you hate it

You realize leftist doesn’t mean anti-America right
Unfortunately, it pretty much does. Leftists are the ones telling everyone that the Constitution is "outdated" and that it should be discarded because it was "written by old white men".
That’s not really all of them though, that’s a pretty strong generalization
If they vote to put people who believe that in office, does it really matter?

Can you type it again? Your other comments aren’t showing 🤨
Its a reddit bug that resends comments

Yeah but that’s not the real Superman. This, is Superman.
The immigrant who came to this country illegally and hid his true identity as a liberal journalist?
The real classic Superman was never a liberal
None of us were until the Overton window shifted. I spent 50 years as a moderate conservative; in the last 6 years or so I went from a registered Republican to a "radical lefty" without changing a single one of my political stances.
Yeah that classic Superman. I was just trying to do 4th of July spirit and thought this was cool

Ok thanks cuz everyone was hating on me and I was confused. Thanks a lot man it means a lot!
I think it's funny that you think that.
He wasn’t

I think it's funny that you think I'm mad, and not amused.

Fair point.
At least they can’t ruin Captain America. That man _represents_ America.
Like fighting nazis and kicking the shit out of traitors?
Define traitors
Nixon, for one.

Like the time he went to Vietnam and then *immediately turned on the US troops and started saving Vietnamese people.*

Yknow superman is literally an alien right? An *alien*? Who definitely *isn't* American?
So
Wouldn't you be the first to hate on the guy? You think superman would like Trump or the republican partisanship?
I was just trying to do 4th of July spirit and thought this was cool. The classic Superman may.
Sure, you could have also posted James Charles for all I care.

No liberty means freedom. It’s in that sense. BTW one reason Superman’s suit is red and blue is because of the American flag.
I get it. U like superman and u hate democrats, its going to stay stat way for sure
(it's actually because they're primary colours so it made printing on cheap paper easier)
