Just because you’ve never heard of it doesnt change the fact that, that is a white guy in darkface make-up mocking another race. but it’s okay by your logic, since he used his real name in the credits.

So it can’t be cultural appropriation or racism in that case because they were actors? Got it.
You are focussed on the black panther angle, twice i’ve told you my point was the hypocrisy of one of the content creators on this site, you have chosen to ignore that in favour of arguing a point nobody has made.
Admittedly i used the phrase “invention” of wakanda but i think at this point it’s quite clear i’m talking about the movie. Stan Lee and Jack Kirby’s involvement is not a part of this.
I also have not suggested that Cebulski’s actions are justifiable.
I also outright told you i was highlighting julie muncy’s hypocrisy…
Mercer was a guest at a UK con a few years back, his main Q&A panel quickly turned into a 2 hour talk on his game. That could go either way but it was actually pretty cool, i guess thats part of what makes him a good DM.
Sorry, you misunderstood. I wasn’t accusing the makers of black panther of racism. I was accusing julie of being a hypocrite. To accuse one group of people of racism for “dressing up” as a culture that isn’t theirs while working for a site that celebrates exactly that.
like a bunch of american writers, actors and producers inventing a fictional african nation to sell comics and movies?
oh i get it, thats ok because they were black, we live in a world where we are allowed to discriminate based on skin colour regardless of culture.
If only there was a word for that.
I know what you’re saying but it did probably help, there was a huge fetishism for japanese stuff at that period, ninja and bushido inspired stuff littered comic book pages at the time.
I’m in the “what he did was racially insensitive but not actually racist” camp though
And all little boys are born with a monster inside them that makes them fucking awful people, but they have the key to be normal in them all along.
Also congrats on that lead image, it makes you look like you celebrate separatism as a solution to racism, which if its what you want great, you’re as bad as the racists,…
Gawker writers don’t know what work is, to them it is magic.
The idea that a passing knowledge of sci-fi isn’t enough to get by is totally alien to them.
FX guys are total wizards to people who fell out of college into “journalism” jobs, actually anyone with an actual skill is.
So are you using some kind of online generator for these headlines?
People in setting couldn’t tell when the hood/arrow/archer was a black guy. Don’t give them too much credit.
Thanks, i worked out the logic, looked up megaman 1's select screen to get “C” then got bored and came to the comments section for the answer
They’ve never been able to replace Anders or Newitz, but if charles survives the cull, that’ll be it for me and this site
The actual reboot fan community saw this for what it was from before the guardian code made it to air, everything said in the most recent article at: https://www.rebootrevival.com/ holds true.
Sometime after the airing of wing my local toys’r’us had 1/144's in stock for £8 a go, exchange difference was huge back then so that was like $16, either way, there’s almost no chance of finding lego at better prices than that. Although i did pick up a couple of these exo-force kits anyway.
Ladies and gentlemen, i present, the worlds last vita fanboy
You’re an idiot. A traditional hero character isn’t inherently sexist unless you’re trying to make it, and you’ve attached some kind of importance to kinja’s grey out censorship system.
Greys disagreeing with you is the universes way of telling you that you’ve been drinking the gawker media cool-aid too long.
Alternate hot take: How dare people who haven’t been sanctioned by the io9 editorial team disagree with you! It’s a disgrace!
