Happy Ostara everyone!!

Reminder that Easter is actually a pagan holiday that was appropriated by Christianity. Just like Christmas.

[apenitentialprayer]

Reminder that this is literally a hypothesis made by 19th century scholar Jacob Grimm, who no credible historian takes seriously anymore. Easter, the Christian holiday, was celebrated more or less universally by Christians before the year 325 - we know that because the Council of Nicaea debated how the date of Easter would be observed. You'll also note that the name of this holiday in non-Germanic languages is typically the same word (or words derived from the same root) used to describe the Jewish Passover. In Spanish, both are Pascua; in Romanian, Passover is Paştele and Easter is Paști; in Greek, they are both Πάσχα; in Russian, Passover is Песах and Easter is Пасха. The English "Easter" does come from Eostre, which is related to Ostara. But that is simply because after Charlemagne's conquests of the Saxons between 776-782, he gave Germanic names to the months of the Latin calendar that he imposed on his new subjects. The Christian holiday fell in the month of Ostarmanoth (Eostre's month), and eventually became identified with the month that it took place in among the Germanic languages. So while the name "Easter" may be connected to a goddess named Eostre, this relatedness involves several degrees of separation, and to claim that Easter is "actually a pagan holiday" based on its name in English is like saying the Fourth of July is "actually a holiday about Julius Caesar."

Since you were revealed as the first superhuman, you pretended to have a weakness to tungsten and darkness. You knew long before anyone else that one day this lie would become your greatest advantage. That day has finally come.

Kal El…. is literally Hebrew. It means Voice of God. He’s a Jewish illegal immigrant. For a reason. He was written in the 30s.

[aokayinspace]

I mean Superman was literally written as an allegory for first generation American Jews dealing with the struggle of assimilation vs maintaining traditional culture. The birth of Superman as a comic was essentially Jewish Immigrant history.

[siphersaysstuff]

Not all heroes wear capes, but a hell of a lot of supervillains hire uniformed thugs to terrorize innocent civilians.

[beaniebaneenie]

Kal El’s parents literally put him in a Moses basket (spaceship) and sent him “upriver” in the hopes that he could be safe and have a better life during a massacre of his native people.

He has a Hebrew name that means “Voice of/Light of Elohim”.

His entire philosophy centers around

“justice for all” (Tzedek Tzedek Tirdof)

“anything to save a life” (pikuach nefesh)

leaving the world a better place than he found it, repairing the damage (tikkun olam)

“It is not your responsibility to finish the work, but neither are you free to desist from it.” -literal quote from Rabbi Tarfon

How often do we hear Superman talk about how his powers give him the responsibility to help others? How, even if he can’t completely solve the problem, that doesn’t give him the right to walk away?

He absolutely is a Jewish immigrant, using the cultural values of his people to try and better the world.

And as long as directors and writers choose to ignore this, whatever Superman story they’re trying to tell will suffer.

Yes and. What the government gives, the government will fail at. Like all the people dependent on SNAP losing their benefits because Democrats want healthcare for Illegal invaders. There is not a problem in the world the government can't make worse.
