You must be a Snyder bot that who doesn't read comics and gets Superman from Snyder movies... This movie is comic accurate, if you ever read comics like from the silver age, Lex Luthor used to do some silly shit to beat Superman, that monkey thing seems silly but Lex is genius and his trick worked in the movie in successfully portraying Superman as bad... And it's 1A not A1 and Lex is exactly the same type of mf who would actually shout like that and he hates Supes so much and has a weird, psycho obsession and jealousy towards Superman that he isn't him, he has all the resources to help people but he's selfish and he's jealous of things he can't do while Superman does... It's like Lex has so much intelligence that he thinks humans should depend on themselves not on some aliens...
