You are correct. No matter what opinion one person may have, there will always be someone else that has an opposing view that conflicts with it, no matter how illogical it may seem. It's just disappointing to see beloved franchises of all mediums suffer because fringe groups "demand representation" to further their political agenda. Remember when comics were just about amazing people doing extraordinary things to defeat evil in the name of good? It was so much better without some people worrying about what their favorite hero stuck their dick (or in some cases, vagina) into, and other people worrying that their favorite hero would be changed in a way that they would find them less relatable. :/ Same goes with movies, etc.
You realize that they change characters all the time. Superman used to shape shift and sneeze out a galaxy, those were established traits for his character. Spiderman has literally had so many reboots and changes to his character that only his basic personality is what has been carried over.
Such as? I have yet to see an established character change to the point that they're unenjoyable, and with the exclusion of maybe Ghostbusters (which I thoroughly enjoyed, btw) I haven't seen too many movies that even wandered outside the plausible boundaries of the established character, period
Since I'm in on this conspiracy, I'll let you know that you are completely correct. While I can't discuss our secret SJW council meetings in detail, we know about every movie, comic & videogame currently in production. If we see that there's a heterosexual white male character involved, we immediately use our zionist connections to get it changed. We used to work with the NWO, but they've gotten kind of weird recently (long story). It's definitely not because artists want to tell stories involving different people, I can promise you that much. It's only us. I mean, who would voluntarily write a story with black people in the lead?
Just for the sake of example, X-Men's Ice Man, Since he was originally introduced, has always been known as quite the ladies man. Until recently when it was decided that he needed to be gay because that's a current hot button issue, politically. Many fans of his were shocked by this recent alteration to who this character is, and don't understand why this change needed to be made instead of say, just introducing a new, unknown character who happens to be gay.
The complaint was about changing established characters, and actually encouraged creating new ones, but thay was a cute attempt at some kind of back-handed insult. Anyone who agrees with the sentiment must be some kind of right-wing, homophobe, hillbilly conspiracy theorist.
Oh
Agreed on both accounts.
). In stories, I'd expect characters to have some growth and an ark to them. How is a character switching sexual preferences a problem? Lots of people change their sexual orientation over the course of their life. Is the complaint that changing his sexual orientation is unrealistic? This dude is shooting ice and riding it.yeah, that's the reason why I stopped reading comics, there's no definitive progression in the story, everything can be changed or undone by another writer. not that i care about ice man though, he's just the same character who just happens to like dudes now.
It can be an interesting plot point if it was ever done correctly. Like the character slowly realizing they're attracted to whatever instead of whatever they thought they were before. But it's usually so abrubt and out of nowhere. Anyway, for a lot of this stuff, a character's sexuality and gender don't really have much bearing on anything. Like why even bring it up in the context if a superhero comic? It only causes issues like thisAgreed on both accounts.
And I mean, why is it a problem if characters change? People change and re-evaluate their perspectives and values (well, most people do
because the same people would've whined about a gay character being shoehorned into the xmen story.
