But you still get people's unconscious biases influencing their work.
Sure, but that could be said for any media, and saying that superheroes as a whole are just pro-cop propaganda is way over the line of what is a reasonable interpretation. I'm not even a big superhero guy and I recognize that. Shit, a big part of a lot of these superheroes is that the cops aren't their friends and are part of the reason why they hide their identity.
Yeah definitely. But it's still good to examine the assumptions of the paradigm to know what it's viewpoint is. I agree, I don't think it's intentional and I wouldn't call it propaganda. But it's always good to try and find the pov things are written from.
