CreditCreditRyan Pfluger for The New York Times; Styled by Alex Tudela Dane DeHaan has watery, nearly translucent blue eyes — somewhere between mysterious and radioactive, "made for cinema," according to the director Derek Cianfrance — and a haunted stare that has made him Hollywood's go-to avatar of teenage torment.

|

|
|
So much so that some have built a quasi-religion around him as an avatar of the ancient Egyptian god Kek and an obscure Italian disco track called "Shadilay" (a blog for another time.) Suffice to say, the now-deleted tweet revealed that Michell has no fucking clue who his audience is.

Visuals of soldiers and police, biker babes, and firemen, bros in cutoffs, whiskey bottles, melting steel, more bikes, more welders, tanks, fireworks, army soldiers, more video vixens, more firemen, more flags, a cigar, more scantily clad girls, flags waving, and finally Kid Rock, the avatar of the American dream, singing in front of Betsy Ross' finest handiwork.

If they can purge their own party's offenders and drive women to the polls by whipping up outrage over the absurdity of the nation's avatar of aspirations and values being immune from the penalties facing other gropers, then they could take back the House and maybe even the Senate and hold hearings on the Harasser in Chief.
|

Yet an examination of Mr. Gillum's record lays bare the central contradiction of his political life: Self-styled as an activist-minded populist, with a lunch-pail upbringing in south Miami-Dade County, he is also an avatar of the capital city he runs — a town powered by ambition, horse-trading and alliances with well-placed power players.

Josh is the pedantic ethnographer who turns the village's magic into an object for study; Mark won't stop vaping and making lewd comments about the women; and the conflict-avoiding Christian — whose very name seems chosen to indicate he's the avatar of a post-pagan era — seems incapable of making choices for himself, or of imagining himself in anyone else's shoes.

But if there's one thing about the show's setup that makes me think it could have new ground to explore in seasons to come, it's the way that it turns Barry into a kind of avatar of the country he once served, spreading death and destruction in contexts both legal and illegal, without really trying to engage with the morality of any of it.

As America launches a new presidential primary season featuring a record number of female Democratic candidates, it's worth recalling one of the most startling statistics from the 2016 general election: Self-proclaimed sexual assaulter Donald Trump, so pure an avatar of the patriarchal world's will-to-power that he would be deemed over-the-top as a Marvel Comics villain, won the vote of a majority of white women.
