I'm of two minds on this. I do agree that the example shows in the secret are political and raise issues that are interesting to discuss. If you're a fan of The Boys and you don't realize fascism is bad ALONG with the gross superhero fun, you're missing the point by a mile.

On the other hand, the part of fandom that wants to hate on an actor because they haven't mentioned Palestine can fuck right off. I hate shit tests like that when artists (along with everyone else!) are allowed not to share their political thoughts.

Yeah, to me it depends entirely on the fandom because there absolutely ARE fandoms where the entire point of the canon is to explore issues and so you can't divorce the canon from the issues that it was created to explore. These are not the fandoms you want to be in if you want to avoid discussion about that sort of thing because it just goes part and parcel with the canon.

But there are far, far more canons that aren't created with any sort of issues in mind, and so yeah, someone trying to drag issues into those fandoms is crossing an unspoken line.
