If there’s one thing that confuses me, is that CHUDs haven’t identified with Ozai, Frieza, or Palpatine IIRC. They would probably be more interested in identifying with Azula, but she’s a woman so can’t identify with that. Kylo Ren I noticed they identified with a little bit, but not enough to catch on.
But if there’s one character I am surprised CHUDs haven’t claimed as /theirguy/ yet, is James Bond. He’s part of the British CIA with a license to kill and he’s a chaotic neutral defender of the west that fucks like a rabbit. He’s identical to how CHUDs see themselves.
The only fictional character I see chuds claim is like an amalgam of Ryan Gosling’s characters from Drive and Blade Runner. Which really makes no sense, because one of those is a criminal getaway driver who ends up helping a Latino gangster’s wife and kid. And the other is a bounty hunting android who, through various circumstances, betrays his corporation and police force because he begins to identify with the very underclass of androids he previously hunted down. Chuds are pure aesthetics. They just want to be some hot lonely guy with a cool jacket.
Ozai and Freiza yeah, though Freiza might be a bit too queer-coded for them? But for Palps they do identify with the Empire in a general sense so thats a thing. Azula yeah I think its because she’s a girl, and also like, I dont know a single queer leftist ATLA fan who doesn’t kind of love Azula. Kylo is funny because he’s meant to be a bit of a parody of CHUD manchildren, so them owning that is funny. And as for Bond, I mean, they are mad at he mere possibility of Daniel Craig being replaced by a black guy or a woman so they do have some attachment to him.
