See, knowing the socio-political leanings of many of the Marvel writers, they absolutely intended this speech to convey Red Skull as a monster, but he's not wrong in the case of Europe. It's possible to be tolerant and kind to others whilst not allowing yourselves to be taken advantage of.

The Marvel writers, in particular Jason Aaron, are extremely obnoxious and ham-fisted regarding socio-political implications. Here's a gem from the most recent issue of Jason Aaron's Star Wars comic. This panel is after Leia (who is supposed to be 5'1") beat a trained special operative in hand to hand combat whilst making a speech that the ever-so-subtle writer surreptitiously laced with real-world social commentary.

Man, nothing makes me feel more immersed in a galaxy far, far away than groan-inducing social commentary! If there's any reason that I read and watch Star Wars content, it's to be reminded of contemporary social issues!

I guess Leia wasn't "empowered" enough for Jason Aaron, as she never made awful speeches or punched people! Forget all that stuff about being a leader extremely dedicated to her cause, being headstrong and not being afraid to get her hands dirty (garbage chute on the Death Star), and being handy with a blaster! If Leia's going to be an empowered womyn she needs to best a big bad man in a fist fight rather than by using her brains to win, or doing something else that's in-character for Leia.

Some scans from a recent Capt. America series

Now, I'm not saying that strong female characters are bad, or that domestic violence isn't horrible, but fuck Marvel, do all of your comics have to be about this? Why does the staff of Marvel comics feel that they must insert ham-fisted social commentary into every series they have?

Edit: fucking lol, the female Thor comic everybody

I think so. I wasn't sure about that one either, but seeing some of the content they've released I wouldn't be surprised.

Honestly the only way I see Marvel recovering from this is if they revealed that all of these comics occurred in a parallel SJW-verse

But a gay Captain America? Would anyone even notice?

It's always about shoving it in your face

In fact, that's why they made Cap a terrorist

That's worth bringing up actually.

Is there any bad guys in these comics that represents or looks similar to some Middle Eastern bloke, or something about enforcing certain beliefs?
Nazi and Soviet villains are literally sooo last century.
