@SunsTranslator@VaughnMColeman The comic books didn’t exclude the “human aspect” at all. It’s not like these characters are just paper dolls until adaptation; they’re literature like any other
We need to bring back intellectual elitism.
Sorry, but a virologist will always know more about vaccines than a yoga mommy blogger with a chat gpt AI subscription.
@SalemSaySay@phillorama1@bumble_bbgun I’m not a fan of debates, I’m a fan of dicussions. Generalist terms aren’t used in the industry or among people who know what they’re talking about. Specificity matters in any argument
@SalemSaySay@phillorama1@bumble_bbgun It’s more like Whedon writing rather than MCU writing. The Markus & McFeely (cap trilogy, infinity war, endgame) and Coogler’s Black Panther are head and shoulders above the rest of the MCU. Flattening it all into “MCU writing” is something non-scholars and non-filmmakers do
@murkymurkmurk@BreadBoyPhD@EdbieLigerSmith “I’m not going to argue on the actual facts of what’s on screen. I’m going to get mad about my reaction to the Plato cave wall shadows I’ve constructed in my head because I’m a retarded goy”
@The_Red_Eye_ Actually, in high level neurology and psychology we see that punishment doesn’t actually deter. Most actual scholars know TCAP was heavily exploitative. Defense of the show tends to be a kneejerk reaction by people who haven’t actually done the research on the facts
@Jpark1138@mmamericans@TayScorsese Are you retarded? The USA is a nation of immigrants; by definition the roots of most things in the USA come from outside the USA. Comic books didn’t; Siegel and Shuster were raised in Cleveland. Kirby and Lee were raised in Manhattan
@optimusprimoh@TayScorsese Well, if he actually studied the roots of these characters, he’d realize they’re not right wing at all. Kirby got death threats from Nazis for creating Captain America, was doing Afrofuturism before had a word for it, etc. Superman’s tagline is champion of the oppressed
@Racager_@watermelon_mrx2 Well no. Marvel is a comic book publisher. The films are from that. So no, you’re not a Marvel fan if you’ve only seen the movies
The "middle class" was a 50-year fluke designed to prevent a communist revolution during the cold war. now that the threat is gone, the elites are systematically dismantling it. you aren't "falling behind"; you're being pushed back into the peasantry
