No arguments from me. Most of the Thor I read in the comics as a kid was from the Avengers so I didn’t get into the Asgard part until I was older. I used to believe that race swaps weren’t a big deal since they were sporadic years ago but I finally opened my eyes after Annie came out. That was followed with so many to the point where I won’t even watch something if it’s race or gender swapped, or if it sounds interesting I just buy the book. Denzel is one of my all time favorite actors and even though I no longer have Netflix I’m not going to even pirate his Hannibal movie

And then I remember hearing people talking about how great Idris Elba did in the role ... and I was like, "did I miss something? He didn't do anything." There was certainly nothing particularly noteworthy in his performance.

But as a psyop, that makes perfect sense. "The whitest guy is actually black, and he was amazing! And if you disagree, you're probably a racist."
