I'm still in complete disbelief that this is a real thing. This literally makes all of Dan Didio's choices look like a supergenius' work.

I laughed real hard when I first heard about this. Comics is filled with ridiculous things but this is something in it's own tier.

Why do I got a feeling the writers got chained into a chair and forced to watch Foodfight for eternity for the writers to get the idea of internet gas

A shambling mutilated corpse of what it once was that sprouts constant predictable intersectionalistic postmodern social justice warrior identity politics clichés.GojiBoyForever said:
This is just a very small taste of what Marvel under Sana Amanat, Axel Alonso, and Joe Quesada has always been doing (Axel has been replaced, but it makes no difference). It is the reason for why I have turned so disillusioned and depressed about the issue.
Imagine if the franchise that you grew up with and most enjoyed since you were small was treated in this manner and turned into something completely alien in comparison to what it was supposed to be, and that the people responsible for it constantly threw extremely offensive generic slurs, vulgarities, and slander against everybody who had the audacity to complain in the slightest. It would be very frustrating.

This is another new comicbook that Marvel will release in conjunction by the way: https://youtube.com/watch?v=UN9ixhcfApw

Gotham High is just as cringeworthy but at least it isn't canon.

Internet gas aka the 50 million whippits that the writers must've done before coming up with this train wreck of an idea

I'm not the biggest fan of Marvel, but man do I feel bad for the fans right now. This is the kind of stuff you'd see in a Venture Bros. episode and the fact that it's canon and the writers demonize valid criticism adds insult to injury.

I thought you guys were just being mean about Trailblazer being a fat dora. But omg. She literally is. That's so terrible.
How does one set out to create an inclusive team of super heroes with a theme of combatting social prejudices and then end up making a team of super heroes that alienates audiences and then reinforces those social prejudices.
Imagine being an actual nonbinary and the marvel gives you a nonbinary superhero called snowflake. There is no way this was done out of love or respect. Are people at marvel really that unaware?

The people in charge of Marvel value sect-like virtue signalling filter bubble backpatting and identity politics rather than actual factual information, genuine virtue, and tolerance of people who disagree with them.
They think that only gay people should write gay characters, that only brown people should write brown characters, that only feminist women should write female characters, etcetera, and make them all uninteresting, bland, hollow, standardised and simplistic in the name of imaginary group identity "representation", rather than treating them as independent individuals, and they are also totalitarians who do not believe in the freedom of speech except for themselves and those who think exactly like them in every single area.
Speaking as an autistic leftist, who used to have various other mental problems, had relatives who were murdered by real Nazis, and tries to make up my own mind on every issue after thorough comprehensive fact-searching, I want to be treated as an individual on my own merits, not as some kind of token mascot and collectivist cliché.

A few of the people in this wiki went ballistic a while back simply because we list gender among our character statistics, despite that we make note if it differs from the real world binary standards, so I am not so confident that we can avoid conflict here. There are people with lots of different views from many different cultures in this wiki.

Well, since Sony moved to Silicon Valley, it also started to systematically censor all games that do not fit into the totalitarian "progressive" agenda, so that is a valid point. Everything should conform completely or be destroyed according to their viewpoint, and no true diversity, meaning that of thought, information, and perspective, will eventually be allowed.

In what way? I'm curious. I have never heard of a manga or anime being labeled as PC.Newendigo said:

@Ant I mean, this is no different than a discussion about a really poor quality series at this point as opposed to outright attacks on minorities. There are inevitably going to be ridiculous people like that out there but it shouldn't stop us from voicing our opinions on a media that was once near and dear to our hearts. We're not insulting or attacking anybody, this is honest if snarky criticism of how far standards on entertainment and story-telling have fallen recently.

@Iam
He means that western SJW media and Silicon Valley will gradually put pressure on Japanese culture to conform via both financial means, as was done with Sony, and hostile "journalist" demagogues who agitate the keyboard Twitter activists to terrorise the Japanese creators until they conform or give up. The My Hero Academia creator has been subjected to quite a lot of the latter for example.
