    I'm pretty sure he genuinely needs the job and the signing bonus. Playing the all time worst Superman in a TV show that was barely even a big deal when it was on the air is the absolute peak of his acting career.

    Let me fix that headline for you, The Guardian:

    “Guy who played pretend hero on tv over 30 years ago has now signed up to play pretend hero in real life.”

  • yhea, superman would definitely throw ice agents in jail, every time he sees maked gangs beating minorities into unmarked cars.

    At this point, I would sooner refer to Hitler an artist than Cain as someone who played Superman.

    Absolutely nobody thinks of Dean fucking Cain when they think of Superman. Except Dean Cain, probably, but he's a nobody so my point stands.

    He made this announcement while wearing a shirt with a punisher skull on it. The punisher would hate the shit out of this guy.

    Through his biological father, Cain is partly of Japanese descent

    Cain has said of his biological father, whom he never met: "He's not the kind of man I want to be. He was an unfaithful husband and not much of a father." Source

    And that’s why Lois Lane is now a lesbian.

    Because when your boyfriend is a fascist, and your other boyfriend has daddy issues, Wonder Woman seems like the only stable person.

    Checks out, he’s been on the wrong side of things a bunch post-Superman… He’s probably gonna make a small pile of money as a spokesman or part of some deranged reality show.

    His family was interned because of racism during WW2 and he was upset about the racism directed at him when he was cast as Superman. I think he might be a few sandwiches short of a picnic if he doesn’t understand the parallels here.https://www.primetimer.com/news/who-are-dean-cain-s-parents-actor-recalls-racist-backlash-following-superman-casting

    We can't afford to run a candidate like Biden ever again.

    Bare minimum the next Dem candidate for president needs to be willing to at least try to hold these people accountable.

    The oath is to the constitution, and we need to start prosecuting people violating the constitution and then trying to hide behind the oath as "just following orders".

    I agree with you, but the problem is that the DNC doesn't think of you or me when they think "we". To them, "we" is wealthy capitalists and their cronies. "We" is whoever is willing to kill any left wing policy before it gets off the ground, at any cost. They would rather lose to fascists than allow a leftist to lead, because they value money over justice and equality. The party elites will not give up control of the party willingly, even for someone who represents overwhelmingly popular policies.

    The party elites will not give up control of the party willingly, even for someone who represents overwhelmingly popular policies.

    DNC has ~400 voting members and their only job is to elect a chair. The chair then has complete power and zero accountability.

    They 100% could have chosen to stick with the bullshit neoliberalism you're talking about

    They picked the state chair from Minnesota. A guy that turned a purple state not only blue, but home to some of our most progressive Dems in office.

    Ken Martin isn't perfect, and I doubt I agree with him on a bunch of policy. But that doesn't matter, the way he's always led a party is pretty fucking simple but very effective:

    1. Run a non-biased primary

    2. Support whoever makes it to the general.

    Like, you're about six months behind bud, what you're complaining about was already fixed.

    Just don't expect billionaire owned media to spend a lot of time accurately reporting on it.

    I wonder what needs to be on one’s mind to come into conclusion that this is a good idea

    This guy continues to act on a regular basis, but it's almost all IMDb 2.0-4.9 garbage made for Tubi, like Andy the Talking Hedgehog (2.1) or The Three Dogateers (2.9). A decade or two ago he was at least getting guest roles on network TV (most recently he was in six episodes of Supergirl 10 years ago), but now he's apparently exclusively in animal (mostly dog) movies and God movies.

    A couple years ago he did somehow manage to get a guest role in one episode of The Curse (Paramount+), which is the most notable thing he's done since that Supergirl gig.

    I’m sure this move will help him get recasted as Superman in the next movie…

    Dean Cain was the only TV Superman who's alter ego was Clark Kunt.
