<Snipped quote by Lord Wraith>
Every single day there is/are:
Multiple murders
Armed conflict
Numerous rapes
Humans are polluting the planet
Commercial sacrifice of animals (I personally quite enjoy that one especially chicken)
Whatever atrocities I didn't bother to mention.
Compared to Krypton Earth is a backwards hick planet of destruction and barbarism.
In the 'For The Man Who Has Everything' comic, Krypton is shown to have become increasingly shitty and dystopian if it didn't get blown to shit (keep in mind, this is Superman's ideal version of Krypton; you can only imagine how fucked up it would've been if it actually survived). Really, it's no better than Earth. Then again, that version of Krypton was just a figment of Superman's imagination, so I'm probably wrong and Krypton really was just a utopian planet where there is no wrong.
But really, let's all stop arguing about this because it serves no purpose; the point is Kara doesn't want to live in Superman's shadow and shouldn't live in his shadow. If that means choosing an alias that's unrelated to Superman's alias, then good on her. And hey, if she's a space racist then that's cool too. Doesn't mean anyone has to like it, in fact most people will probably hate it, but still, let her keep doing her.
