To borrow a movie quote for your comment; "what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."
I'm not sure if you're trolling or actually that stupid.
Nothing you said refutes that and most of what you said confirms it even as you pretend otherwise.
I know Vader was the bad guy, I still have VHS tapes for the original trilogy for one. But people later whitewashed him, especially in fan works.
Just because Ford Coppola whitewashed Dracula doesn't make it "the best", that's a subjective position. Dracula was clearly evil in previous films such as the Hammer films and in the original book by Bram Stoker, the guy who created the character.
Angra Mainyu is clearly evil in Zoroastrianism, so if Angra Mainyu was Zoroastrianism's understanding of the devil, that's not a reinvention. Also, for one, the idea of the Devil as a cosmic evil being emerged gradually in Second Temple Judaism, not Rome. Plus, the ancient Israelite religion NEVER had a serpent god of knowledge. Spare me that Gnostic nonsense.
The fact that you called Homelander "Badlander" shows you know more about the show than you pretend to.
Partial credit for that bit about Vader. In Return of the Jedi, Luke surrendered to the Empire on Endor to get close to Vader so he could try and talk Vader into redemption - that's how Luke ended up on the second Death Star where he later cut off Vader's hand.
Now what about;
*The Wicked Witch of the West (who spawned the book/play/movie/franchise "Wicked").
* Dracula, who had at least 2 movies whitewashing him (the 1992 movie and the 2014 movie)
* Loki (anything from Marvel in the last 10 years)
* Magneto (also Marvel, but for even longer than Loki)
* Stalin (when was the last time he was a villain in fiction?)
* The literal devil (the series' "Lucifer" and "Hazbin Hotel" to name two).
There's more, but if there are people will whitewash the literal devil himself, who won't they whitewash?
