Gaz-L posted:...OK, like, I can understand if you think the writer was being dumb, but, in-story, how is Kitty wrong for making that argument? Because equating a fake comic book superhero slur with an actual real racist slur is kind of tasteless? But yeah I don't see how that should necessarily reflect negatively on Kitty as a character.

I'm sure it's possible for someone to write Kitty as a likeable character. It's just, you know, never happened.

I've only ever seen stories where Kitty talks about that in relation to her being Jewish (I think most recently Bendis had her give a big monologue about anti-semites at school?)

Here's the other (in?)famous one: New Mutants #45 Hmm. It's admittedly not a very funny panel at all.

I can see the point the writer was trying to make with both of those. Like Bendis' thing about her being Jewish they both come off to me as trying to address real world poo poo through the lens of comics. It doesn't quite come off in either of them, but I get it. They're basically trying to go, in a hamfisted way, to the fans reading it "hey, you like these characters, so in real life maybe don't use these other words that are the same as the slurs used against your favorite characters here!" They don't work 100%, but "don't use racial slurs" is a fine thing to say, and sometimes to demonstrate bad poo poo you have to actually demonstrate it.

Strontosaurus posted:I thought that was the entire point of the X-Men. Before every other mutant introduced could wipe out the world it was, now the X-Men sound like the rich white guys complaining about reverse racism and how powerless they are against liberal SEC lawyers and yacht taxes. How with our limitless power are we to survive this persecution? Powercreep killed the X-Men's message like X-Men discussions killed the last funny panels thread.
