Wikipedia says

A superhero or superheroine is a stock character that typically possesses superpowers, abilities beyond those of ordinary people, and fits the role of the hero, typically using their powers to help the world become a better place, or dedicating themselves to protecting the public and fighting crime.

So yes, he is definitely dedicated to protecting the public, but it feels wrong to call him a super hero. What do you think?

    He’s a radicalized terrorist, technically.

        From my point of view, the Jedi are evil.

          The Jedi in the time of the prequels were evil because they decided to become cops who were more interested in upholding order than justice. Luke ate fascists for breakfast.

        Homelander, “super terrorist” is the company’s preferred nomenclature.

        I don’t really get that point of view. The empire literally committed genocide. How is that not wrong?

          Without having had much to do with that original community I’m fairly sure it’s satirical take where defendants are defending the indefensible.
