If you donβt like Marvel you are a racist and a sexist.
Definitely sort by controversial.
The jannies have arrived to lock π the thread and Clean π It π Up π.
βIf you disagree with me, then youβre a racist.β
If you donβt like marvel, you are a cockroach and an incel!
βNazis, literal nazis. We have to call these people what they are.β

Nobody gives a shit whether they're Christian or not. I can't think of any time Spiderman, Superman, Batman, the X-Men, and whoever the frick else, went into a grand speech about their love of Jesus. Religion pretty much never comes up.

Movies with nonwhite leads don't get review bombed. There are literally hundreds of very highly appraised movies with leads of all race and gender.
They need to realize there's something very specific that these disney movies are doing which set people on edge more than other media and that's why they get targeted.

People are just obviously going to act more reactionary when you shove it down their throat and gloat over them. That's the mechanism at play here not racism/sexism/-phobia.
Movies that don't do this type of marketing don't have review bomb problems, but nobody ever looks at them and says "oh why was this one okay and mine wasn't?"

yeah thats basically it. They treat us like teachers do, its like everything became governed by head teachers.
Now maybe I am a bit obsessed

I live in a country thats 90% white and its just stupid having black women on every third German corpo poster.
A well placed Somalian can enhance a film very much. Even a joke against bad stereotypes can be fun: in How To Sell Drugs they have that Albanian Mafia and it turns out nobody is actualyl Albania, they just use it as label cause it scares people. You know what? Plenty of shady 'Albanian' folks propably do that. Good business.
But something goes very wrong. Somehow Star Trek can be every race dancing around the space ship fire happily, but new 'representation' has this feeling that just scares me away. Its almost demonic, definitely screaming hypocricy, very hard to describe but very intuitive.
I genuinely prefer the Russian approach where everbody is Russian first and brown Buddhist second. This whole X-American shit will be your downfall.

Funniest shit was when r-slurs did BLM protest in germany (I think other EU countries too). Unbelievable how braindead many people are from social media.

Japan was hilarious too: βI canβt forget the look in the eyes of people seeing our march. They were ignoring us, not interested at all.β

you said nothing about white however.
My personal theory is that everyone in the world is racist towards some group or the other, globally white people are like the vanilla of skin color, so no matter what nationality you are, at least a large minority demographic will be willing to watch your whitoid antics on screen
