That's a lot of words, but the only support I could find that "rightwing fanbase" is upset is this one tweet from someone with 65k followers from the article:
> And last week, writer Ryan Broderick posted some outraged screengrabs from Reddit. One read: “Was really liking Blue Hawk until the end of his speech’. Another read “There’s no need to apologize for helping eliminate criminals.” These fans, Broderick claimed, have been patiently waiting for Homelander’s redemption arc. Now that it seems as if it won’t be coming, they’re angry about being tricked into liking the villain.
I love the show but I think that scene was a little too cartoonish. Normally Boys is a noir where every character, with few exceptions, is neither good nor bad. Even the evil Homelander is nuanced enough to be interesting. This was just lazy writing.
> And Rick and Morty had a decent shot at the title a few years ago, when fans furious that their favourite show had the temerity to hire a female writer published her personal details online.
I have never heard about this. I feel like there's a whole sub-genre of articles that are reactions to anon twitter reactions. Where do they find this stuff? It's weird coming from a major newspaper.
