The Boys represents everything alluring and ultimately unfulfilling about postmodern ideology. It tells you that “good and evil” is a lie by the powerful. The powerful are always “oppressors” and the ultimate goal is to expose them and take their power. But there’s a major problem… What do you do after exposing Homelander? Who fills the vacuum? If power is inherently oppressive, you’ll be rebelling and deconstructing again. And again…and again… David Foster Wallace called it living as “third world rebels.” You get stuck in permanent revolution mode. Always cynical. Always living in chaos. Never building something better. Never aspiring to be Superman, because Superman can’t be trusted. It’s an ultimately hopeless and nihilistic ideology that ruins lives.

In The Boys finale, there is a completely inconsequential scene where the worlds richest man randomly walks into the White House wearing a Dark Homelander hat, says he loves space, has 15 kids, and is concerned about white birth rates. Homelander then flies him away off screen. While The Boys has always had political messaging, the first few seasons had it as a background narrative, never superseding the actual story. This is also when the show was at its best. Conveniently, it also began to dip in quality once the political messaging took precedent over the story, and season 5 was unfortunately the final form of this. The writers were so blinded by their TDS that they completely reworked the show to be a left wing satire of current political events rather than an original story loosely incorporating political messaging. This season felt so rushed because it almost certainly was. They, like the rest of Hollywood, most likely thought Kamala was going to win, so they had written the show in anticipation of this. When Trump won, he threw a bomb on their entire script and made it irrelevant, forcing them to rework it last minute to “satirize” the Trump admin, and constantly revising it through filming to include parallels to at the time current events. All it was missing was an Epstein reference, and you just know they’re kicking themselves for not getting to include one. TDS ruined The Boys.
