terrible terrible story concept; memetic poison; Pandora's Box; Florida Man (actual cw: uspol) 

Revisionist superhero comic a la Watchmen or The Boys, except it's set in Florida 2024 during Trump's second administration, aka, "Oops, All Dementia!", in an America that has accepted things just aren't going to go back to normal and is behaving accordingly.

COVID-24 has been mutated beyond all recognition, thanks to all the quack treatments its ancestors were subjected to (and a nudge from a Russian biolab).

You see where this is going. To make a long story short, Mask Karen has superpowers. And her kids are throwing Villain Parties at Daytona Beach.

I don't even want to think about the implications of this world's George Floyd incident. I WARNED you this was going to be memetic poison. And you know the QAnons would have creative and infuriating opinions about what *really* mutated everybody.

I suppose this world would also have to have gangs of superpowered trans kids and BLM-affiliated heroes running around a restored SCHOP/SCHAZ too. I mean, I'm not a complete sadist. Just a superhero world that acknowledges up front how *broken* modern America is. (Have you noticed that's been scrubbed out of the Marvel/DC stuff and they mostly don't acknowledge that part of America even exists?)

And I guess the furries would have to play a disproportionately large role in this world's superhero subculture, for better or worse... because why should it be any different from real life... because we're furries and having large numbers of us in unexpected places is basically our job... and we've already practiced the "secret identity" thing for years, so we'd do it better than anyone else could and you know it. :3

@001zlnv Oh my god, that's beautiful, yes. You know that's exactly the sort of thing we'd be doing, and we'd be doing a surprisingly good job of it. Again, kinda like everything *else* furries do. You know we'd be the best at super-cosplay kayfabe.

and make an effective boogie man for keeping them in line, because who knows how many of the infrastructure folks are actually super furries or just passing info to them.

"oh yeh so like typhoid karen's been causing waaaay too much damage, send like 100 foxes to this address to have the talk with her"
