4 pages of nonsense started by an obvious troll rumour isn't worth it guys 🤷‍♂️

You're right.

I shouldn't have taken the bait
 
He said the line 😂

It sure is strange how there's always an 'acceptable' reason to do it in one direction but never in the other huh. Weird. It's almost like there's a double standard.

You are a troll and arguing in bad faith. Your victimhood is loud, even if others don't see it. This conversation is done.
 
Hold on, I heard rumors they might recast Kang..
There is this charismatic young actor who would be PERFECT for Kang.

He was in this show called Lovecraft Country. His name escapes me at the moment but he was the bright star in that show and would be a good villain. I think he may have had some legal issues lately but those seemed to have cleared up :P
 
They cast Hamilton (Lin Manuel Miranda, a brown man, created the play and made the casting rules) that way because it turns the history of, yes, founding fathers but also, slave holders on its head. And using hip-hop and R&B, culturally tied to black and brown communities, to further cement the divide between the US and King George who uses classic musical music. The intent is to say that the US is as much our country as the Founding Fathers.

And, again, the Asgardians are aliens. They can look however they want as they're obviously modeled after Not Norse gods. They don't even SPEAK Norse in their daily lives. They talk more like Shakespeare, at least in the first and, partially, second films. And all the shot callers at Marvel are white ... You can't blame any other race for that. WHITE people decided that Heimdall and the rest of the Asgardians were like the human rainbow and not homogeneous like the Skrulls.

You can't seem to get that and your constant pushback is ... Weird.

I would, however, BALK at a black Aragorn or Asian or Indigenous Gandalf as LOTR is meant to be an olde British legend as he felt England lacked one (I don't think he considered King Arthur or Robin Hood old enough). And the Kingdom of Rohan were obviously modeled after Norse history. And that's how it should stay.
How can you argue for casting the founding fathers as non-white yet have a different set of rules for black figures like MLK and Black Panther.

The political creation of US and the founding fathers is all white people and european systems of law and institutions. Black people and Mexicans had nothing to do with it.

Just because you take a character from a mythology and make him alien doesnt mean anything. Just as making MLK alien isn't enough to seperate him from the real deal. American white people altered with Heimdall. We had no say. You always use black and white as some sweeping race generalizations. We are nothing like white americans, just like you are nothing like somalians.
 
Dr. King was more than just a figure in America's history. He helped us get the right to vote. He helped END American Apartheid (Jim Crow) and he inspired others to take up the fight for equal rights, even today. Shoot, because of him and his contemporaries, Loving v Virgina never would have happened.

Dr. King is not just important to black people, he's important to the whole country!

And about Yasuke... It was the Japanese who called him a Samurai in the first place back in the 1960s. It isn't some modern idea.
Yasuke was not a real samurai, obviously, if someone in 1960 said anything of the sort, they were either ignorant or just don't know about history.
