They aren’t trying to appease the US market. They own us already. This is for China.

Oh for frick’s sake. I don’t want to read any further than the headline.




Normally I'd agree, but Captian America has always been about fighting racism. Hell, his first appearance in any fashion has him punching the evilest racist of all in Hitler.

Then the falcon comics have strong elements of doubt of Sam upholding the legacy of CA. In the comic even a black man states that America isn't ready for a Black CA.

So much of what they are doing is following a storyline.

You might want to quit replying. References have been made across the media that you are responding to via one movie. It's you who have not watched or read these storylines.

Avengers 2012 was incredible; it’s been all downhill since.

Now do Margaret Sanger!


But whether yall like a certain poster in this thread or not, he's not wrong about Marvel Comics doing these themes for a very long time. Anybody acting shocked was never familiar with the material.

McCarthy was right

He may have had a point, but he was soon held in contempt as a buffoon.

And that was a different time and place: what seemed subversive and communist in 1950 is now generally regarded as mainstream.

This is some hack sjw writer’s spin on the show. Believe me, it’s a huge stretch.

I’m not saying the MCU doesn’t dabble in woke, they certainly do, but this article misrepresents things.

The comics have addressed sociopolitical issues since the beginning. "Woke" is just the newest term some folks like to use to express their disdain for discussing such things.



You support this silly horse shite

Captain America is white because 95% of the US soldiers in WWII were.

A large number of black people hate this country and everything it stands for and are offended by anything a white person does or says

no surprise....13% of our population is totally dominating everything...on TV

everything is about black people...sports, BLM, woke, Biden Administration, big tech CEOs, adacedmia...social media, filled with "equality"

Blacks have their own entertainment network...

Black created their own awards, just because they can..

Blacks are dominating many big Blue cities holding elected offices, mayor, city counsel, police chiefs, DA, judge, and the list goes on

I am going to keep living my life....



Liberty has different outcomes...it will always be this way

I hate "wokism" and can say the racial issues are being handled very well in this show.

People being offended are looking to be offended.
