Suicide Squad deserves all the hate.. 

"How do we make Lex Luthor even more evil?" "Make him a feminist ally?" "BRILLIANT! You're gonna get a pay raise!"

Its weird that the writers of this game would think that the amazonians have a wonderful golden society. Last time i checked they had no diversity, were deeply religious, had strong well defended borders to the point where they would kill people just for happening upon their island, glorified war and violence, lived under a monarchy with no elections and didn't have even 1 single Starbucks.

Lex would never say toxic masculinity. He would just straight up call you a dumbass.

Lex Luthor's been many things: a supervillain, an evil genius, a businessman, but this is the first time he's been a simp.

Lex Luthor would NOT admire any superhero, because at some point he knows he can beat them all. And as the replies stated, he views superheroes as a hinderance to humanity.

It doesn't deserve all the hate. It deserves more

I can't wait for a modern WW2 game where we get Hitler's diary entry on Incredible Woman.

"Toxic masculinity", "Patriarchy" and "White supremacy" are buzz words used by feminists who have nothing of value to say in order to blame everybody else but themselves for their problems. The fact these writers insert their own private issues into games is hilarious to me.

This is the same game that Harley tries to lecture Batman on traumatizing people, where she, in this canon, tortured Jason and was ok with killing kids.

"AAA" Devs: Why you like Palworld, it has barely any writing? Their writing:

Lex's entire motivation for fighting Superman is his utter loathing of Superman's limitless power and selflessness. There's no way in hell he'd praise Wonder Woman for those same qualities.

Meanwhile, Vaush: "what stuff?" Yeah, we're totally just imagining this. No agenda is being pushed. Surely.

The writer probably saw the surface level of 'island full of women' and thought "yes slay queens" instead of the horrors that await just a couple layers down from there.

Writers pull shit like this and then complain about getting replaced by AI

Lex Luthor's defining trait is his narcissism with the intelligence and resources to back it up. Please tell me more how he'd be willing to say ANOYONE is better than him when he still looks at Superman as beneath him

This has to be the most evil version of lex

My man lex would die before admiting anyone is doing a better job at something than him.

Anybody who puts "toxic masculinity" into anything should be fired. Lex is one of my favorite villians, he wouldn't say that shit when he EXUDES masculinity.

This is officially more evil than stealing all those cakes.

This was written by a man who can cure paralysis and cancer, just to immediately gave it back to prove that he was more than capable, but won't do it.

So the writers are saying that Lex Luthor, an antagonist embodying capitalism, an actual patriarch, man in position of great power, would be envious of a backwards isolationist society that failed at every task it was given? That he would praise feminism and use the buzzword "toxic masculinity"? There's hamfisted propaganda and then there's this... writing.

Lex Luthor: "Democracy is broken." Also Lex: *elected president in several universes*

The only hero Lex luthor acknowledges somewhat is Batman himself. Their relationship is best defined as begrudging respect -- with Lex acknowledging that Batman is a human among god-like superheroes and obviously that if there is something lex luthor respect most its intellect. He stated sevral times that batmans genius mind is wasted with the justice league. Lex probably likes the fact that Batman actually has contigency plans for the league that actually work. Batman is not someone who is arrogant enough to just ignore the danger of god like superheros going rogue which I would imagine lex has some respect for.

The lex Luther I know wouldn’t say that, he’d want to exploit the amazons for his own gain then implement their knowledge so he can defeat superman and then rule the world

Luthor would NEVER use the term "toxic masculinity". And he would never look up to anyone but himself. Even Superman 64 got Lex Luthor right. What is wrong with these people?!

Like Asmon said in the Sokka video, you're allowed to be a mass murderer, you're not allowed to be misogynist.

This feels like it's written by someone with only surface level knowledge about the amazons in DC.

This is like if, in the 90s, they made a Justice League game where Vandal Savage keeps casually referring to the Good News about Jesus Christ.

So many talented writers out there but for some reason these barely coherent hacks keep getting hired instead.

If you see the name "SweetBaby Inc." attached to anything, boycott it immediately.

Imagine if they made a Wonder Woman game where it’s her going around saving the league and after saving one of them, you could then play as that member you just saved. But that would require effort and creating different play styles and we can’t have that.

I love how people are trying so damn hard to defend it too, its hilarious.

Man, this game is insane. How someone thinks this is acceptable is beyond me.

"We have forced them into hiding with our cruelty and avarice.... They deserve to be as secret as they are." These idiots can't even keep their story straight for one paragraph.

I believe it was on Kotaku's subreddit where various mods went around bashing the usualy "culprits"they find in either straight, white or men (or the trifecta). They'd ban or delete any post/comments that challenged their over-woke ideals, especially when it was criticism towards woke writers in modern media writing terrible female main characters (like, seriously, there are great female characters in existence, how hard would it have been to take inspiration from them? but guess they don't like flaws in their "strong independent women" characters).

Lex luthor would have a thorough assessment of every person in the justice league. He’d also end the evaluation with a snarky remark for each member cause the man has an ego the size of Texas.

If toxic masculinity exists then toxic femininity exists also.

Wonder Womans island paradise is one of the largest lies inside of the comics, we literally find out that the amazons big R ships that get to close so they can have kids and the male kids are sold into the big S to the smith god. Its all kinds of bad.

GET WOKE GO BROKE

Stop. Pretending. Wokeness. Isn’t. A. Problem.

They also coded wonder woman to look more native american despite being clearly a white Greek. Unbelievable.

Reddit moderators removing wrongthink, and water is wet.

As soon as i heard the CEO say all successful games need to be live service and paid DLC I decided they would never see my money.

someone was paid to write that.

A reddit mod covering for clearly woke influences on a video game character that is 0% woke in a "gaming" subreddit is exactly why the type of people who become reddit mods should never be given any power ever.

"My generation has wonder woman. Your generation wonders if it is a woman."

Claiming the amazons exist without cruelty is wild, especially with the new comics making them reproduce exclusively through kidnapping sailors instead of being shaped from clay. Strange for Luthor, who pokes holes into everything, to portray them as perfect. But it's good to see that the writers place their own ideals into the mouths of villains, makes it so much clearer to see who's self interested.

Woke Lex Luthor: Amazons could fix our toxic masculinity, political strife, and lagging technology. Amazons - an island of women ruled by a queen who havent even discovered the wheel.

Just for laughs, I checked the rules for r/gaming. The post violates none of them. Which means one of the mods just got pissy that a game they like has sucky writers.

She's not gonna sleep with you Lex. What a simp.

Lex "writing" anything along the lines of putting someone above himself is wrong from the get go

The most outlandish thing I've heard lex say was "I'm your Daddy," whilst straddling clone Superman, and that was still somehow more believable than this.

I love how the writers will say how the amazons have solved toxic masculinity but completely forget that they didn't actually solve it but instead replaced it with gender inequality and the subjugation of males who make it to themescara. It's really easy to write a story when you can retcon every detail whenever you want and you can't be called out for it otherwise (insert any form of deflection that is usually inserted here to avoid criticism).

Fun fact one of the writers for this game is the CEO of a (Woke) sensitivity consultant firm that WB hired in order to score ESG points to look favorable to investment firms like Blackrock.

I’m not a DC fan and the only stuff I’ve properly engaged with was Batman-related media. But from what I know of Lex Luthor, he hates superheroes and meta-humans in general. He believes they make humanity weaker and wants to prove that he, a regular guy, can defeat the World’s Strongest Hero, Superman, thus proving they don’t need to rely on superheroes for safety. Lex Luthor would never idolize Wonder Woman. If anything, she would be #2 on his S*** List.

Look at Wonder Woman's image - that tells you everything you need to know without the additional blurb.

SweetBabyInk and Rocksteady are getting hate because they put popular DC characters in the game with poor deaths, unfunny humor and that dumb for "modern audiences" pitch Edit: Green Lantern in his underwear was hilarious. Who tf thought of that😂

I'm no Superman nerd, but I know for a fact that Lex Luthor would not use the phrase _"toxic masculinity."_

lagging technologically the amazons fight with woodshaft arrows and iron swords

"A golden society" Yeah, a golden society that literally abandons their male children, last I checked. Though it's been a while since I looked at that, feel free to correct me.

Lex Luthor would not be fawning over superheroes. Because he sees himself as being better than they are, even without powers.

Terrible writing

I wonder what Lex Luthor from Something Unlimited universe would say about that.. 😏😏

You would think they would make a villain more evil than making them an advocate to their perfect view.

r/gamingcirclejerk will say this is in character lmao

Makes more sense now who really developed the game. Of all the heroes from the JL they chose Wonder Woman to be the one to be free from mind control and the only one with an actual respectful/Honorable death. Whereas everyone else gets shot down like a grunt, left in their underwear, and pissed on (not over exaggerating btw)

Well, this is enough proof of the character of this game for me to not give it a try.

Lex would never admit someone is better then him no matter how right they are that like his main character trait

It come to me as no surprise as "Sweet Baby Inc." has sprinkle their magic BS all over this game.

The millisecond I hear the "toxic masculinity" being spoken non-sarcastically by anyone, I assign that person to the ultimate moron box. The bracket of people not worth talking to, nor interacting with.

Anyone who writes "toxic masculinity" shouldn't be within a hundred miles of any game that appeals primarily to guys. If this bit of text was the only woke thing in the game, it'd put me off buying the game.

Themyscira is far from perfect, people wouldnt leave aka wonder woman if it were "perfect" infact all the Amazonians did was take toxic masculinity and hit the uno reverse card on it. its funny how little these game writers actually know about the comics, no where is perfect, no one would WANT to leave a PERFECT society, meanwhile wonder woman "ima go live with the humans because I prefer them over my not perfect Themyscira"

Writers are all island enjoyers

BlackRock : How high do you want your ESG score ? DC : yes

This really sounds like some Mary Sue self insert fanfiction where even the villains love the main character. I am not sure weither I have ever seen an example more laughable in an actual game.

Hiring woke writers has not worked since the first time they tried it. This shit just does not sell. It's hilarious seeing them try it over and over again.

Why is it SO DAMN HARD to keep a character IN character??

The only way Luthor respecting the amazons works is if he ended the paragraph with “I’ll make sure to use their enlightened ideals to build my utopian society, just as soon as I wipe Wonder Woman and her sisters off the face of the earth”.

“Lagging technology” And Themyscira has the shit that can cure cancer? Since when!?

The amazonians legit kill defenseless babies.

Lmao they can't even let a supervillain be a supervillain. Fuckin hell

“Government without cruelty”?! WTF In the lore Amazons raid ships, breed with sailors, kill them and destroy ship.

The higher the companies ESG score, the more funding they get. It's literal cancer.

This makes me believe this version of Luther is probably in line with Harley Quinn tv show Lex Luther. Like he has a P.R. team, making sure he's socially appreciated in the media. And will do anything to make his approvals and treading tweet high.

Lex is pro human and amazons are not human. He'd never speak highly of them

Its reddit. The second they saw the words toxic masculinity in the game they gave it 10/10 and haven't even played it yet.

The whole reason why Lex was a villain is that he hates super heroes, he hates people like superman and wonder woman with power because people worship them like gods and he believed they could turn on people at any time and will never see eye to eye with them. Lagging technology? The man is so narcissists that he believes his inventions can be superior or is superior and he would never look up to any society. The man would always want to run things his way even if flawed.

"Governance without cruelty" If I had a dollar for every bullshit the Amazonians did I would be the richest man ever.

Jesse Eisenberg's Lex is not the worst most out of character depiction of Lex Luthor anymore I'm pretty sure Jared Leto's Joker will also be saved by how trash the SSKJL Joker will be

Lex Luthor would only say that in one universe and unfortunately, it's ours.

Lex Luther is one of those characters that comes to mind when you think "toxic masculinity". He wouldn't be a person to acknowledge it because it would basically be admitting to himself that he is the problem, which being the narcissist he is would be extremely hard for him to do.

Lex Luthor's whole thing is "What if Superman and his Super Friends turn on us? They're too dangerous", and in this game when he's finally in a situation where he can say he was right, he writes THIS? Man, stop.

SweetBaby, baby!

Wait, that is Wonder Woman in the picture?

Let me rewrite this in Lex Luthor's words from how I would do this as a fan. "Wonder Woman, to think I would be forced to make these inane journal entries for Waller, a man of my intellect reduced to scribe for lessers. Though I detest Superman for his strength, I have a slight respect for the Amazon, for at least she does not hide behind platitudes of high morals of an alien but behind something ancient, flawed and human at least. There is not much to say of the Amazons themselves, since they are isolationist bunch of lunatic women on their island trying to cast judgement onto man without realizing how inept their ways would plunge the world into chaos similarly to how Superman would if he were to turn on us... the day I wait with eager anticipation to be proven right. Wonder Woman's abilities range from magical to Herculean strength, depending on the universe of course... She prides herself in her combat prowess and seeking the truth.. I for one, never engaged her for long enough to find any particular weakness, other than she seems to be easily defeated due to her straight forward tactics of barging in without thinking.. gleaned from my discussions with Cheetah about her archnemesis. Seems to be Amazonian or the stems of training like the Greeks did. If this was not clear enough, lure her into a trap, disarm her armor, reducing her to a feeble woman. Tell Waller I want my parole hearing after these ridiculous recordings are done, also I wish for my personal chef to be brought here, the food is.. blander than the paint on my cell. "

This is what happen when you let losers at life into the things you enjoy. Reason #38,925 why gatekeeping is a good thing.

ahhh, so being from the journal of Lex Luthor, we can then assume that these ideas are actually hideous, villainous, and evil. Great job!

The only way Lex Luther would say any of that, if it was some sort of plot against Wonder Woman. And even then I doubt it.

Lex is the type of guy to ask a girl out, get rejected, then build an android duplicate of her just to plow her. This ain't Lex...

Holy crap, was the person writing the text self inserting themselves? The whole thing doesn't even feel like Lex Luther actually wrote it but some 15 year old in their chem class trying to waste time. 😂😂
