Gretchen Felker-Martin was behind the title, which DC said would be pulled: "Posts or public comments that can be viewed as promoting hostility or violence are inconsistent with DC’s standards of conduct."
This is insane. We’ll end up with this white-washed, boring mediocrity.
Same with that MAGA-actress from The Mandalorian. What she said wasn’t even as radical, just bought into the whole election fraud conspiracy, iirc. Now we have a formerly good show where every new character AND their actor are basically PC-principal from South Park. The left failed to support her there because she was a bit of an ass, supporting a bigger ass, but no laws were broken and she fit the role perfectly: Not that smart, badass, hardly an ally when you have no other choice.
Enlightened centrists are left to create our art and literature. Well, at least the 1800s and 1900s produced a lifetime supply. But a contemporary reflection of our society, of our politics, like “1984”, like “Der Untertan”, like “Im Westen nichts Neues”, that used to be a huge part of it, and it’s slipping away.
Fiction is an actor we should not pull out of public discourse. It has been crucial to it, probably long before the first written word. Unless a crime is committed, let them write!
I doubt the show was ever good because it’s made by disney and “safe for china,” but I get your point.
The censorship and abuse of power on both sides needs to end. Barring that, any smart person should just recognize the tribalism for what it is and use it as a way to differentiate themselves from the average idiot.
Stupid people don’t magically become smart because there’s more of them, although stupid people will not understand or accept this.
