There’s also likely no Superman here.. probably because he either wasn’t human and thus killed.. or was against fascism, because Superman is ALWAYS against fascism and racism.

I wouldn’t be shocked if the Dead Peacemaker was going though some shit as his moral core starts to bloom and he started to see how bad things were.

I just hate we took 5 /8 eps to get here.

As Adrian in this universe actually has the same beliefs as ours. Who hates racism and Nazis as shown in season 1.

I actually like it's Adrian that we're shown is not ok with it. His whole deal so far has been his super rigid, if warped, moral compass. We just saw him store millions in his basement because he had to keep it somewhere, he couldn't spend it, and he couldn't trust the authorities not to be corrupt. Everyone else has been shown to be ok with moral ambiguity, willing to go along with certain degrees of corruption or moral ambiguity

I would not be ok with that tbh. It would cheapen the influence Peacemaker's contact with those around him is supposed to have had, and the disillusionment he had with his father figure and the US government if the Peacemaker who we only see directly benefit from nazism also had a moral revelation putting him "ahead" of those around him.

Our peace maker stated to really question things after killing Flagg. There were some lines that made it seem like he was being weird before. But that could also just be our pacemaker’s actions.

I agree that pacemaker’s growth only happened via other people, so it’s unlikely he was unhappy with being a Nazi.
