Daredevil: Born Again season 2 ending explained: Is the Marvel show about January 6?

Throughout this season of Daredevil: Born Again , the political parallels seemed clear. Mayor Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio), as a temperamental New York businessman who rose to power through fear and intimidation, is an obvious stand-in for President Donald Trump. Despite protests from Charlie Cox that the similarities are “ purely coincidental ,” fans began spotting similarities during the first season of the Disney Plus series. This season, it’s only grown more obvious with Fisk’s command of his Anti-Vigilante Task Force (AVTF), a rogue paramilitary force that is harassing both vigilantes and ordinary citizens on the streets of New York — a clear allegory for ICE. source https://www.polygon.com/daredevil-born-again-season-2-finale-pro-january-6th/
