I don’t think every piece of media has to promote revolutionary politics in order to justify its existence.
Well, this was a point that was even made in Superman 1978, in which culture was recognizing the modern age as becoming too corrupt and complicated for a simple superhero. It’s still possible to enjoy it, but the Superman narrative, in failing to keep up with the times loses its relevance. That’s okay. People still like swashbucklers too.
