After hearing about the He-Man debacle, still can't help but ask...

What is wrong with having a show that appeals to boys/men, or having a strong male hero?

Thankfully I cancelled Netflix over a year ago, but of course I heard about the bait and switch which is pretty commonplace now. The shill websites are doing the usual fan attacks as well as praising the "stunning and brave" direction. One even called it a "radical reimaging". Netflix obviously should've just openly stated that it would be a show about Teela but they know there wouldn't be an audience for it (outside of the sycophants in media). They knew that people who grew up watching He-Man would want a show about He-Man. Although I would rather market to them because they would most likely have kids and buy merchandise, but it makes much more sense to market to blue haired feminists on twitter.

You would think what has happened with comic books over the last 7 years would wake some people up.

I'm glad Anime and Manga are doing well and I hope that Japan never bends the knee. I recently bought some Conan comic books and novels, as well as the complete Robert Howard collection. I know Netflix is doing a Conan show, but I am pretty sure he will be upstaged or he will learn everything from women.

But I will close with my question from above. What is wrong with having entertainment that appeals to boys/men? Or as Yellowflash put it "nothing wrong with having something that appeals to women/girls but why is it that something that generally appeals to men have to appeal to everybody"

You have no idea

I have done much more for black people than you have or ever will. That's not a challenge and I don't know you but it's true. I guarantee it.

Still they hate people, they even hate other niggers. We are told it's racist not to have niggers everywhere, even in roles clearly meant for white people where it makes no sense to have a nigger.

We are told that their hatred is valid and even questioning it is racist. We are attacked and then blamed.

I've lived in the most niggery cities outside of Africa, trust me they hate you.

I've done more for and been closer to niggers than most people. Racism does not come from white people.

Now answer me, how am I not taking responsibility for my actions? How is being exhausted with seeing niggers constantly on television in every role not taking responsibility. How is it blaming? Do you deny they are overrepresented?

Don't change the topic. Answer the question you fucking pussy. Do you deny they are being forced everywhere and white people are being attacked?

All I said was having Kang as a nigger when it is statistically highly unlikely knowing the character is annoying. Don't turn this into virtue signaling because your life is empty and you have nothing else to be proud of.

That's a lot to answer so we're going to stick to the topic. You wanted to get into this so answer my questions, don't just whine racism and call names. If you don't answer I won't respond. Take your time.
