@womzilla@jenphalian I don't honestly know that it doesn't send other weird messages, and doesn't fix exploit-the-culture-ignore-the-people -
@chaosprime@jenphalian True, true. -
@womzilla@chaosprime I, myself, think the Mighty Whitey trope is a lot worse than the other. -
@jenphalian@womzilla Yeah, I'd rather go the other way if it were up to me. -
@jenphalian@womzilla Especially since we're already getting ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME Mighty Whitey story with Doctor Strange.
