Oh ok so it's autistic for you to want a story to have good story telling then?
Quote from: Ender on July 07, 2016, 01:10:36 AMOh ok so it's autistic for you to want a story to have good story telling then?No, it's autistic to give one single fuck about a character's race or gender.If the character ends up being a Mary Sue, as a couple people have observed, then that's more of a discussion. So you should've titled the thread, "They're replacing Iron Man with a Mary Sue," but you didn't.
]I know things when I get paid to know them. Cheat isn't lining my wallet right now, so...But I digress, you understand that a lot of what Das posts is his schtick, why exactly is that not the same case for other people such as Ender? Plus considering how small this place is I'd personally would figure that people here would have enough of a grasp of people's personality to where they could differentiate between sincerity and sarcasm.
NoI'm upset because they're fucking replacing tony stark as iron man

It's just easier to criticize when there's a clear political agenda as the reasoning.

That's her agenda.

It is inconsequential no doubt, but the motivation behind the change isn't.

what the fuck is even going on in here? ok so who give a shit if she's a black person if the story is good the story is good. that being said i don't know why the fuck verbatim is freaking out over. RDJ was a great tony and i'm not sure if whoever this person is can fill the shoes still not rlly right to call them black or woman honestly. a person is a person at the end of the day and she might be a good actor just don't judge

A surprise appearance from Lemy was exactly what this thread needed.

If this comic turns out to have good writing (it won't because Bendis), then that's awesome. But pointless pandering is not a good sign.
There are no safe havens for le nerdy white male. Stop thinking anything is yours and yours alone.
