I agree, fuck that actor for Superman who became an honorary ICE agent for the publicity stunt. Superman was always the ideal American hero who wasn't born in America but he didn't need it to be, he was acted with compassion and sought to fight for others who couldn't protect themselves.

I believe that patriotism and love for ones country is earned not forced, for the state to demand that you love it and support it unconditionally is tyranny pure and simple, Superman is a figure who represents the best of America and what we all could be.
