The Boys is an Anti-Capitalist Facade
Amazon’s superhero drama The Boys satirizes all sides of American politics, using an anti-capitalist lens to critique various aspects of U.S. culture. However, I argue that The Boys' anti-capitalist critique actually serves to empower capitalism, reinforcing the belief that it's the only viable system to run the world.
