Am I supposed to know what the fuck comicsgate is?

Nerd shit + gate = you know exactly what it is

The nerds don't want blue-haired gender studies majors turning their hobby into a recruiting tool. Comics have always been political, but the politics involved generally served the stories and characters. Now the characters and stories are subservient to the politics. It makes for shitty comic books.

yawn

I mean I get it, those aren’t my hobbies either. But when the SJW come for toe nail clipping collecting you and I are up a creek brother.

this is all true but consider

nobody gives one tenth of a fuck

If I still read comics, I might care more, but only because I don't like people fucking with my shit.

I give at least a micron of a fuck. Generally I like to pop in to these threads and say, "Geeze, not this horseshit again".

The overwhelming majority of comic books are shit. They always have been and always will be.

That thread is proof we need to ban capeshit comics

Imagine thinking that one kind of adult men's cartoon picture book is more or less pathetic than another, lmao

Everyone knows that japanese backward image books are far superior.

It's about ethics in posable action figures.

Something where caring makes you automatically lose .

Both Meyer’s YouTube and Twitter accounts rapidly became a repository for a constant stream of personal attacks and dog-whistles for his followers. He has publically labeled Ta-Nehisi Coates a “race hustler” and repeatedly mocked DC writer Magdalene Visaggio as a “man in a wig,” claiming that she is violent and mentally ill. He fixates on the the physical appearance of female creators he dislikes and retweeted memes mocking certain creators as “autistic retards,” along with images of himself slapping them.

In a private YouTube video called “The Dark Roast,” originally posted in November 2017 and obtained by The Daily Beast, Meyer called one Marvel editor a “cum-dumpster,” accused various female writers of “sucking their way into the industry,” and mused which famous creators were pedophiles or had psychological problems. “The Dark Roast is where I get to say stuff like ‘Dan Slott looks like a pedophile,’” he says in the recording. “I don’t have to dance around, I don’t have to say ‘parody’ or wink-wink.”

A guy said some mean words.

Time to cry about it and blame him for all of our problems!

Stop sperging out when someone points out that nobody wants to read trannyformers.

Unironically agree. Nothing healthier than saying it like it is.

He's right tho

I'm pretty sure these things are all true.

Anyone who cares about either side of comic book drama is pathetic beyond words.

The only thing worse is anime related drama.

But can we agree the k-pop drama is the best weeb drama?

CTRL+F "gross" in that thread. These people read comics because they are mentally children.

capeshit without 100 million budget.
Why?

Ew as in legit ew Marvel is not a shitshow because diversity fuck that nonsense that is just some out that can take no Marvel is a shitshow because of their overload of events, Continual death of good character series and promoting god awful ones, bad writers(JUST FUCKING DIE ALREADY SLOTT) and other fun things like lack of respect for creators. Honestly everyday that passes is another day that Geoff Johns sits at his desk and cackles madly at Marvels despair.

Nah, the genderqueer womyn dialogue and artwork is far worse than any convoluted retarded marvel story ever was.
