harris and clinton are self-evidently slavers, no further discussion required vegeta worked for a confirmed slaver for a long time so he's at least an accessory to the crime goku is a trickier case, but he at the very least condones slavery by associating with notorious slavers or the henchmen thereof and makes excuses for them so what i'm saying is that harris and clinton represent the ruling classes, vegeta represents the outright reactionary forces in society while goku represents the clueless liberals and all three are necessary to perpetuate modern day slavery

Inverted Icon posted:and Trunks? on the one hand trunks represents the children of the reactionaries who end up reaping the inevitable bitter fruits of their fathers' misdeeds and on the other hand, after literal magic technology is used to avert those consequences (a commentary on the fascination with nazi wunderwaffen no doubt), the vision of a life of unearned power and privilege that the reactionaries envision for their progeny after the final struggle has been won in this case one should note that the trunks who went through struggle and suffering and attained power through his own merits is portrayed as inferior to his father in every sense whereas the trunks who inherited everything is shown as superior in natural talent, achieving the same power without much apparent effort, thus reinforcing the critical importance of maintaining a system of privilege and hierarchy in the reactionary mind, a system ultimately built on vegeta's slaving days
