White ppl after being one of the main reasons why Voodoo as a relation has a negative stigma of being associated with evil just to appropriate it and misuse it for themselves
I don't think no one should support a man who justified the whitewashing of an afro-brazilian character by given the role to a white Brazilian voice actor saying he looks like blk as a justification. Gave storm a mohawk despite its origins being anti-black
@helluvareceipts
The fact that there are black folks that actually defend the anti-blackness and blatant racism and cultural appropriation in the show makes me sick
I mean there are black characters in Avatar
Piandao is modeled after Sifu Kisu a Moroccan Chinese martial artist that was hired for the show and was consulted for the martial arts for the various Nations
I keep seeing people in the replies say that water and earth benders are black…yall do know that brown Asians exist right? Everyone in the ATLA verse is Asian.
@Starbolt76
There's really a comic panel of Magneto confronting an Israeli ambassador essentially telling him that unlike the colonial power that he serves Krakoa wasn't built on the displacement and genocide of a indigenous peoples
Imagine denying the fundamental queer coding and queer subtext of the X-Men as well as denying the close at Yukio and Ororo Munroe being more than friends
Seein X-Men fans praising Sophie for talking down on a black man about oppression while not surprising will never not make me uncomfortable
De whole thing of makin cishet white able-bodied mutants talk down on people of color about oppression will never not make me uncomfortable
No terrible fan casting for multiple reasons a fundamental part of dazzler is that she sacrifices her career and popularity for her morals something that Taylor lacks also she was based on Grace Jones and disco at the time was a predominantly black genre

No because in both the original 1610 Comics as well as 616 both Peters approve of it of him having the mantle of Spider-Man one gave him his Blessing and the other Express approval saying that he was proud to share the mantle with him also dere different ways to distinguish dem
She's bi cope
The reason why it wasn't explicit is the same reason why Northstar, Marvel's first gay character wasn't allowed to explicitly gay homophobia and censorship
Also she addressed her relationship with Yukio as more than friends

Proof he was actually right wing he was the most hated man in America not to mention he had a lot of speeches talking about how capitalism and racial oppression link with each other also if you think his niece is a source she lied
The reason why Azazel being Kurt's dad doesn't work because the whole point of this character is that he LOOKS LIKE a demon due to his mutation but despite his appearance it's the kindest soul you'll ever meet, giving credence to the people who accused of being a demon is bad
The people saying "Azazel being Nightcrawler's dad makes no sense" are wrong. He's still a mutant, just part of a sub race that look like demons
Kurt's allegory still works. You just prefer the new retcon
Everybody talking about Hestia in Hades 2 but can we also acknowledge that Hermes literally looks ASIAN
These are all Greek gods, why do some characters not look Greek?
@GreenHalover
Let's see if I got them all right and correct me if I'm wrong

I mean there's a lot of children that have their mothers last name instead of their fathers with both parents being married it's literally not that deep
I need non niggas be silence when comes to black characters and hair
Storm having straight hair is literally because artists be too lazy to draw black hair also issa disco cover it makes sense for her to have an afro plus it's not the first time she had one in comics
Why did you give Storm a Afro? Her first appearance was in Giant-Size X-Men
#1
published by Marvel Comics in 1975. It was written by Len Wein and illustrated by Dave Cockrum. She had long wavy hair and did not have a Afro.
She was never a redhead and for y'all complain about her being Brown y'all do realize back then they had a really racist way of coloring characters of color black characters depicted as ashy gray Asian characters depicted as yellow don't even give me started on indigenous folks
Y'all do realize that every thing Magneto did was a reaction to the bigotry of humanity the slogan Magneto was right was due to the fact that humanity is so ignant and stuck up in a bigoted ways to the point that dey to be bigoted to the point of their own Extinction
Emma doing it to Kamala Sophie to David like there's nobody care about tact and optics X-Men fans praising this type of writing will be mad defensive when you call their favorite white woman racist or themselves racist
Craig is actually attractive and he's better than Paul plus Ororo and t'challa been broken up Craig actually not only cared about her but also was willing to die for kids Plus he's an astronaut from NASA that's not an average nigga feat
1. You a 🦝 ass nigga
Anyone who uses this panel is required to do heavy research on liberation politics because violence in response to oppression is not oppression Magneto doing what he did in response to human bigotry and the creation of the sentinels

She's really the first black female character Marvel created her being black is important to her character she's a mixed heritage half African American half Kenyan
Her blackness is even more important considering that she was created during the blaxploitation error
@BubblesZap_
@TheeDCstan
The point is both of them try to pretend to be parents the children that didn't belong to them. The only difference is that Miguel didn't kill his variant
You have to be new cuz people been hating on Elizabeth Olsen not only for the fact that she portrayed a Romani character but also for the racism and referring to said character as a slur and every time people rightfully critique it her fans turn into literal Nazis
Superman was raised by a couple who cared about him which resulted in him caring about people in representing the best of us especially in the worst of times he wouldn't be like homelander if you think that you have to be intellectually dishonest
Y'all do realize that just because the new episode of X-Men 97 was good that doesn't mean Beau demayo should get his job back nor is off the hook that man was anti-black because people were criticize him for casting a white voice actor as Roberto a black character
@RisingStarCom
Is someone gon tell dis man that Brazil has the largest black population outside the African continent said black population being the majority of Brazil's overall population
@wesmoen
@AGramuglia
Not really cuz both in the comics and the insomniac games they both are Spider-Man and are active one of the ways I can say to distinguish him is by giving them different adjective Peter is known as The amazing Spider-Man give miles is on adjective you don't got strip what Miles
Okay you sound weirdly racist so your white ass is saying that a black character's blackness is null and void because he isn't bursting in tears decades after the literal racially motivated hate crime that caused his powers to trigger
His co-creator is literally disagree with u
So a couple things: the fact that all of you are referencing the same panel proves my point in that a single comic panel out of ~2,930 comic appearances doesn’t serve as a defining trait of a character. Consistent references to the meaning of the comic does. Examples:
Captain
White leftists (derogatory)
Calling Sudanese people who are going through their own genocide and the same struggles as Palestinians privilege because of one of them critique a Palestinian activist for a badly time joke that could be interpreted as anti-black is a different level
The weirdos that this movie spawned
The pro shippers
Mfs making fan art whitewashing Miguel miles pavitr and Hobie
The racial fetishization of Miguel
The blatant racism and misogynoir towards Margo and Jessica
Unfunny ass jokes calling Gwen a snow bunny
Niggas be on sum fed shit when it comes to otha black ppls genitals.
How u know mf u dey docta or sum
Da fact DAT u only see value in black people that choose or is capable appropriating is pathetic.
Queer blk folks can still have kids
Dawg those are still the actual loa veves but simplified which is disrespectful because not only Viv is not an initiate she's also not even allowed to practice also you spelled Voudou/Vodou(for Haiti) wrong also you tried to claim it's not a close practice when it is
It is fake. As a former voodoo practitioner I asked to my ougan about the use of those symbols and, for no one's surprise, they aren't even real, again, it's just black americans talkin' about shit they don't understand just 'cause they feel entitled to.
This point kinda falls flat when you think of how many times Superman fights other 'refugees' who have only come to Earth to destroy every single thing they can.

@TheeDCstan
I mean when he was Jefferson Davis they changed it because he shared the same name as the founder of the Confederacy he goes by Jefferson Morales it was changing the comics and the spider-verse movies
@FCB_Giannis
@sageforpres
We literally had a story with a black Little mermaid last year that proved that Ariel's race was not essential to the character
Literally if it wasn't for Betsy inhabiting Kwannon's body using her skills body culture etc she wouldn't even be relevant. I find it racist to have a white woman possess the body of a woman of color then call said woman of color whose body was used a glorified skin of a yt wm
@MatthewGarrit16
@diversitystorm
Not really her powers and cultural elements are all tied to African spirituality. What makes storm unique is her ties to African spirituality and her blackness all which will be removed if you were to switch her ethnicity which is why you can't really say she would be br da samr
No the dictionary definition of racism doesn't really apply due to the fact the dictionary isn't the best source when it comes to social issues due to the fact that it's based on how the word is recorded not on what the word actually means
I don’t get why “You can’t be racist against white people” was ever a hill worth dying on for some. Do they know how that phrase sounds to the Average Joe?
Less people would be turned away if we just agreed that ALL racism is bad while acknowledging systemic racism being worse.
Across the spider verse was a litmus test to test the normalcy of it's fan base and it showed a lot of y'all's true colors
1.From the fan art whitewashing miles (both 1610b and 42) Miguel and pavitr and using color theory and lighting as an excuse
I'm convinced that people with blue check marks are the stupidest people on this planet
Because she provides no source to back up her claims in the source she does provides has a low factual reporting she's using a gossip page as a source
The “Brick Lady” is a scam. I’d love for
@kattenbarge
to do an article on how falsifying abuse is a trend. But she’ll probably use her past abuse as justification for her false allegations and paint the Roma Army as bullies right?
Dumbass she literally voted no and eventually left the council
Also is you mad because storm beat his ass without powers
I swear Scott Summers fan bases it's cancerous especially when it comes to female characters
I swear to God y'all can never be normal Emma was completely wrong what she said was not valid she called an indigenous man in Indian which was already racist as hell but she called him an outsider when he's literally a part of the same tribe as Dani,
I mean yes. That is one way to read it. I think in this case she is speaking not from a "white" perspective, but from one of a violently oppressed people. Him not being, "one of us" is valid. Him being an outsider is potentially dangerous.
Seems to me your a black man triggered by white people, no different from the white ones triggered by blk people. You have a fixation of seeing blks above so bad and when it doesn't match your reaility u scream racism. Being a race don't make u special,
At this point y'all is just blatantly lying he never put down cyborg he literally said that both Tony and Vic would be friends and it kind of feels racially targeted that you twisting a black man's words over something that was originally a joke
@8ternalSt0rm
@3qualrights4all
@ayodelemurewa
@Steph_Smash
You’re quick to claim that they’re “harassing a black writer” (the same one who is quick to put down black characters like cyborg) yet this same writer wanted to stir drama to get Storm sales? Did you think actions don’t have consequences?
Y'all nigcels irk me God forbid Ororo is with somebody she doesn't feel shackled to and have to sacrifice her loyalty to the X-Men who mind you she often referred to as her true family. Anyone calling Craig Marshall corny issa 🦝 what makes him interesting is he don't got powers
That is not what happened in the panel she's telling Kamala to step down because the mission is personal to her because Laura is a victim of human trafficking she was trafficked as a kid
Not them telling a Muslim woman who grew up in post 9/11 America she doesn't know real oppression because she used to hang out with the Avengers. This right here is perfect distillation of the problem with the mutant metaphor.
You a dumbass cuz skin tone doesn't equal race nor ethnicity
Also Margarita Carmen Cansino what's forced to not only whiten her skin and change her name she was also forced to make herself appear more white
She didn't have a choice because of how racist Hollywood was back then
MCU Wendy stans will go out of dey way to attack Romani women for dey ethnic features but then get mad when someone assumes they're racist
Dey in heavy denial about Wanda's Romani heritage and da fact that she should have been casted as a Romani woman, Jewish woman or both
No your racist because you said because of hobie's facial features the way he carries and expresses himself it looks like he needs help and is a drug addict
Okay, so I'm racist just because I don't find the character attractive!? What the hell.
I don't like the design because it feels too much unnecessary. The comics were more slick and simple.
How am I racist for criticizing the design? Movie Hobie does look like he needs help.
Post the rest of the panel dumbass nigga
Also according to Marvel canon in order to be considered a god you need to have to be tied to a Pantheon or get stronger from people worshiping you Storm get stronger from her worshipers it's called the godhead
Literally the debate around the mutant metaphor would be solved if white X-Men fans wouldn't speak over X-Men fans who are people of color and just googled what intersectionality is
The only reason why the mutant metaphor falls apart sometimes it's because of the white ass teams
@ayyyeeewaa
@AaliyahJay
She's coming at the wrong people though Aaliyah wore are those clothing because Arabian men told her to wear it so she can get used to their culture.She should be coming at Kylie Jenner who constantly appropriates culture who sexualizes Arabian clothing
