Chinese people are only interested in boner medicine? Hmm this is a new stereotype I have not considered, though I should, considering the "Asians have small penis sizes" stereotype is there.

Wouldn't you need less Boner Force* to erect a smaller penis though? It doesn't add up.

I found some screencaps of comments that I had saved a few weeks ago and always meant to post.

Backstory: One of Black Panther's main villains has always been M'Baku, also known as "Man-Ape", the leader of the evil White Gorilla Cult, enemy of the nation of Wakanda. M'Baku gains his powers of super-strength, endurance, etc., from bathing in white gorilla blood and eating white gorilla flesh. Also, he debuted in 1969 and looks like this in the comics:



Naturally, Marvel is not having a black man in YOOL 2017 dress up in a gorilla costume, no matter how villainous a character he may be. So, instead, he will just go by M'Baku and (also, naturally) not use the "Man-Ape" moniker, and he will look like this:



He will still be the leader of the White Gorilla Cult, and he will still menace Black Panther. However, he won't be a black man calling himself "Man-Ape" and dressing in a full-bodied gorilla-costume. This was, of course, completely unacceptable to the nerd community, which is apparently really, really racist these days. And now, three people missing the point completely in three very different ways.





Also, I'm not sure if this was from the same article, but it's definitely someone being SUPER racist about the new Ironman ("Ironheart"), a teenage black girl.


edit: Fixed for some terrible image sizes.

The actor is Winston Duke, I went to college with him and did a lot of theater with him. He's like the nicest guy ever, and this is his well-deserved big break. He's already shocked by the idiotic racist backlash.

When they announced Man-Ape would be in the movie I thought "how are they gonna make people take a guy named Man-Ape seriously?" Honestly just not using the name is a better solution from every single standpoint.

But it's not technically correct! How can I watch a film that's not technically correct?! How can I possibly enjoy a movie if I have to regard a black man as a real person with convictions to a cause I oppose rather than a silly man with bad ideas in an ape costume?

There are a tragically large number of people here who think Maryland was "honorary Confederate" or some poo poo (and are super pissed that Baltimore just took down all its Confederate statues and Gov. Hogan removed the statue of Justice Taney).

Maryland's below the Mason-Dixon line, and Lincoln had to impose martial law in the whole state to keep it from seceding.

Really the biggest problem with the "Heritage not Hate" thing is that for a lot of people it's true, just like people fly the flag of the traitor, racist, slaveholding Republic of Texas and their only meaning is "i'm proud to be Texan". Now that literal Nazis are back and flying the rebel flag, that might change...or it might just make them more stubborn.

I've seen confederate flags here in California. One was a bumper sticker (plates were California, though, if I'm remembering right) and one was a dude flying a confederate on his truck down the street from me for a long time. The flag's gone, pretty sure the truck is too. Also the flag had an assault rifle on it and text that said COME AND TAKE IT.

There were some conflicts, and I'm pretty sure we didn't actually matter much in the main war, but we weren't loving confederates and also all the confederate states hate us. :colbert:

Heh. I saw a "Is there an afterlife? Mess with this truck and find out" bumper sticker once and it was like an open invitation.
