Re: Henry Cavill apparently NOT out as Superman
That first paragraph is so on point. Good post.
Also, Cavill posted this...whatever it means.

Spoiler:It’s because everything is a zero sum game to the modern left. In order for them to win, you have to lose. They’re not content with simply winning, it’s about bringing what they perceive as their political enemies to their knees and spiking the ball in their face. For instance, they weren’t okay with simply winning on the issue of gay marriage in the courts (something I personally have no issue with). They had to make sure that if you disagreed with it, you were to be bankrupted and put out of business in order to be made an example of for anyone else who dare oppose it.
I totally agree with you. I’d be just as averse to making characters such as Black Panther, Falcon, Blade, and Winston Zeddemore white. Why? They were written as black characters. You don’t change that. I wouldn’t go see those films either. Instead of creating something new where everyone wins, they want to take what’s already been established and change and mold it into what they want it to be as a way to spike the ball in your face per se, and that you’re just going to have to find a way to be okay with it and get used to it and if you don’t just lay down and accept it, it means you’re a ____ist (fill in the blank with any word that has a suffix of “ist”). Like I said, a zero sum. A we win, you lose approach.
The only people who seem to be obsessed with the melanin component of people’s skin is them, and this just seems like another way of being able to stoke the flames of racial divide by baiting people into opposing the idea, thus giving them a petty reason to label those people one of the most disgusting things that you can call someone in my opinion.
WB can choose to do whatever it wants. Fortunately, I can also choose to not go see it and can choose to keep my money in my pocket instead.
