To be fair a blonde or brunette could dye her hair red. A black woman could but it wouldn’t look authentic. I was actually shocked when they decided that the Red Sonja movie will actually feature a red head. But I’d love to ask someone who defends race swaps why they have zero creativity and clap like a seal over this? Shouldn’t they be proving they can create a compelling story with an original character without crapping on great stories from the past?
I know but they act like that doesn’t happen. Remember when Ben Affleck was announced as Batman? A lot of my fellow comic book nerds went ballistic. Cavill got a lot of flack about how he played Superman at first. The thing is that nerds have always nitpicked. The shill media only covers it when it fits their narrative but there has always been nitpicking.
I think that's how so many got through. The nitpicking is so common that people just rolled their eyes and ignored it. They used nitpicking as a shield to prove the nerds are just annoying.
Good point. That along with the articles about evil nerds who ask “super obscure lore questions” when in reality it was a woman whining about not feeling welcome at a comic book store because she had a Spider-Man shirt on and some nerdy guy asked her if she read comics or what comics were her favorite
I guess that was rhetorical because you are right. They whine about stories from a white western perspective (ignoring the fact that in western countries that is what you would expect) but you are right that nobody forces these people to make something original. As much as I love LOTR and Star Wars or Trek I’d love for them to be put on a shelf and force these people to make something new. Plus I’m sick of seeing great works crapped on by worthless hacks

Ask them to name even two famous redheaded characters that were retconned to be a blonde and a brunette. Then grab a drink cause it'll take a while.

It’s especially comical because in ten minutes when they switch to a different Twitter shitfit they’ll say “white people have no culture.”
I know. I used to try to debate these people but it’s pointless
