Now, when you respond to this I want something, anything, better than just "what you wrote doesn't make any sense". If you respond with some pat answer like that I will absolutely think of you as stupid and consider myself the "winner" of this discussion.
We all know what this is about. Some folks think that white people and their “toxic“ culture have been dominant for too long in this country, and they want to tear down all the white icons. You see them trying to chip away at our culture, nearly every day.
If the matching ethnicity of a superhero charactor is so important to the self esteem of the children, then the answer for the black kids is to create more black superhero characters. Instead, you think it’s a-okay to rob the white kids of one of their superhero role models by giving him a minority makeover. A sort of demented superhero reparation program to atone for the sins of their parents ... who cast Charlton Heston as a Mexican. Note that they cast a major movie star for the Mexican role. They did not change the Mexican charactor to a white European character. Hey, if a minority actor can pass himself off as the lily-white Superman, then all the power to him! No one would give two shits.
There you go again thinking that Superman BELONGS to white kids only, simply because when he was created way back when he was white. And what I'm saying is that A) he doesn't ONLY belong to white kids, and B) he's still Superman even if he's black. Casting him with a black guy doesn't change anything significant. He'd still be Superman and white kids could still like him just the same. Its not white kids who have been left out.
If you want to get technical he should be Jewish because BOTH his creators were Jewish.
Superman is supposed to be a role model for everyone and yet you cant change the color of his skin to reflect that?
You must be miserable nowadays what with the barbarians tearing down your white icons and chipping away at your culture. Sucks to be you.
So I guess we agree to disagree. Take care. Peace!
