I also enjoy that a bit insubstantial number of his problems are the result of him just messing up while trying to do the right thing. Like the entire plot of No Way Home was caused my multiple screwups while Peter was trying to help people.

No, nothing has changed. You could make the argument in the comic about Spider-Man’s appearance in Captain America: Civil War, but nothing else.

Homecoming: Spider-Man is fighting criminals trying to steal hyper advanced technology to weaponize it and sell to other criminals.

Far From Home: Spider-Man is fighting a guy who is using advanced tech to stage destructive attacks with elaborate illusions in order to set himself up as a hero, despite the large amount of destruction and harm he’s causing without care.

No Way Home: Spider-Man is trying to redeem and prevent from dying some inter-dimensional villains he inadvertently caused to be dragged into his universe.

Infinity War/Endgame: Spider-Man joins other heroes to fight a galactic tyrant with Malthusian ideas of population control, hell-bent on eliminating half of all life in the universe.

In none of these movies was he fighting for the government to maintain the status quo.

…in Venezuela? One of the 2 countries in the western hemisphere we don’t have diplomatic relations with? A country Trump tried to do a violent coup in last time he was in power? You think they’re going to build a concentration camp for Trump and start taking prisoners?

You have no idea what the fuck you’re talking about, and it really shows.

Van Hollen on his own going down there was enough to cajole them into giving him a face-to-face meeting with Abrego Garcia. Two days ago half the people on the internet were convinced Abrego Garcia was already dead, but just 1 Senator was able to disprove that. The government of El Salvador was so afraid of the optics of denying just a single Senator that they backed down from their initial refusal and completely capitulated.

And you think it’s fantasy that a larger number could accomplish more? You are clearly not paying the slightest bit of attention.

I don’t think you have a very strong grasp on international politics.

They need to stop this 1 at a time thing. Get like 40 members of Congress, Senators and Representatives. Show up at CECOT with cameras live streaming and demand to be admitted. When they refuse, force your way in.

I don’t believe anyone in El Salvador, including Bukele and the goons staffing the prison, want to have a live stream of them assaulting/arresting a bunch of US members of Congress. And if they do, maybe that’ll help wake some Republican voters up to the fascism.
