Are you “brown people as a whole”? No? Then you’re generalizing your personal experiences and feelings to an entire class of people. Stop doing that. It’s really fucking racist.

Ah yes, the classic “this is not important to me, and I assume that my feelings are the only thing that matters, therefore it should not be important to you” defense. Noted and dismissed.
Yes. It really does make sense to do that. It’s not like the show is hurting for money or something. But more importantly, they should do it because it’s not thirty fucking years ago anymore and at some point when someone tells you that you’re behaving hurtfully it’s incumbent on you to stop.
...or, maybe they could say, “Look, Hank, we know you’ve been voicing Apu for a long time, but this isn’t 1991 anymore. With as many hardworking East Asian actors out there as there are, it feels wrong to keep asking you to play the part when you’re already doing so much on the show and we can make a positive…
“I want you to shoot me as hard as you can.”

“This is the police!”
I can fully believe you have a hard time following my logic here, but this really sounds more like your garden variety sealion. It’s not my job to educate you on sexism in media, but may I recommend not participating in discussions like this until you’ve gotten a basic understanding of the topic? Because you sound…
Because it reduces her as a character to her role in a marriage. When almost all of her stories revolve around her relationship with the Vision and her relationships with her imaginary children (no, they’re literally imaginary, she basically wished them into existence with magic because she wanted to be a mommy THAT…
“It can be done, but it takes resolve and discipline”
Given that 90% of the Scarlet Witch stories in the comics are “Oh no, she is feeling like a failure as a wife/mother, now she must go insane and murder all the peoples!”, I’m kind of okay with them not doing more with the character just yet? I’d like to see the comics give the movie people something not horribly…
I’m going to assume “soul brother” was omitted from the list accidentally?
Why bother with a look-alike, when the real Barack Obama isn’t busy at the moment? “Hi. I’m former President Barack Obama, and I’m here to talk to you about the importance of not flinging yourself from highway overpasses directly into the path of oncoming eighteen-wheelers.”

**pulls out phaser** “Grow some hair, motherfucker.”
Tennis? I thought we were finally getting the epic time travel saga of John McEnroe’s battle against the Borg.
Seriously, what was wrong with calling him a goddamned hippie?
