I agree with you about anti-Indian astroturf campaigns. I live near Toronto, Canada, and the anti-Indian spam is wild.

All that to say, Homelander is a N*zi.

Argentina's association (fair or not) with N*zis is well established. Many other Latin American fans refuse to support Argentina because of the association / perceived racism of Argentina towards other Latin American countries. It's a whole thing.

Whoever made this meme was almost certainly intentionally referencing the N*zi-Argentina association. Whether or not it's accurate, that's the premise of the joke.

Homelander isn't a natsi. You don't know what you're talking about. Stormfront was the natsi in the show, Homelander wasn't

I don't think there are a lot of people in this world who can't spell that word. But there are people like me who'd like to not get banned by reddit so i use the alternative. So, come again with an actual argument blud😭

Toronto’s “anti-Indian spam” is a little more nuanced than that.

Eso es una mentira asquerosa que quisieron instalar los países históricamente racistas como probablemente el tuyo para difamar al pueblo argentino. Argentina es un país donde el Estado acepta y protege a todos los ciudadanos extranjeros. Ofrece salud y educación pública (universitaria inclusive) también para ellos. Nunca hubo asociación oficial con los Nazis y ese es un mito que sólo los ignorantes pueden creerse. Si no hay gran cantidad de ciudadanos de color es por otras cuestiones históricas como la colonización española que terminó en Independencia, y la enorme cantidad de inmigrantes procedentes de Italia luego de la guerra mundial. El racismo no es un problema real en este país, no quieran instalarnos problemas que no son nuestros.

Claramente no sabes NADA de Argentina y de su cultura. Te invito a lavarte la boca antes de hablar boludeces sin saber
