Has anyone else noticed that we're getting more non-white corporate and political bad guys? Usually the default for evil CEOs and politicians even before the 21st century was white, but I've been noticing more black, Hispanic and even female corporate and political bad guys lately.
We had black bad guys before, but they were usually criminals, not "respected" people with financial and political power over society. Is this considered woke or non-woke?

Non-white villains is absolutely non-woke and actually "progressive" in a sense. It gives them agency instead of being a pet minority.
You have good insight, Anon.
true

Kind of a bad example. Invincible had a few black bad guys in the original comic book.
Actually quite a few. There were like 7 at least.
This is a repeat thread.
90% of the daily threads on the catalog are, I've just learned to accept it
It's always racist. It's just a matter of figuring out how. Most shit that's been canceled or removed was progressive in it's day.
???
I'm convinced they're all trying to ape Gus Fring or Amanda Waller.
Why?
its easier to stave off the guillotines if you make some of the wealthy and power look POC
Are Americans really not aware that the wealthiest and most educated people in the US *are* POC (Asians)? Look it up fr
Yeah, and not even the pale ones, it's the Indians so you can't even make the argument that they're white-adjacent.
culturally, historically, and to some extent genetically indians are closer to europeans than asians are

True white privilege is being able to have your race represented in a piece of media without people having to question whether or not your existence within that piece of media was done to virtue signal.
True
I'd shorten that to "being questioned at all". Minority characters having to justify their presence in a story which is why shit from Luke Cage to Black Panther are stories *about* being black rather than just doing superhero shit.
Yup, true equality will be reached when all races can be depicted as shitty human beings without public outcry.
And it's working. I never see anyone on the left complain about black villains anymore unless they're considered racist stereotypes. And the right only complains about black villains if they're changing the race of an existing white character, like Kang the Conqueror.
Whats funny is I hardly ever hear any right wing outcry about Kang.
>I never see anyone on the left complain about black villains anymore unless they're considered racist stereotypes.
I meant more so in the case of non white characters in general, good or bad. Because of culture war shit you can't have a POC character just simply be implemented as a creative choice, it has to be political, whether intended by the creator or not.
>as a creative choice
Never been a thing.
>Is this considered woke or non-woke?
Woke because its actual representation, and not whatever that bullshit is that you'd see in Batgirl where the black characters literally could do no wrong even when they were criminals.
I remember when Cinemaphile used to lose their shit over black characters because "they'd never make a nonwhite man a villain" and now look at us. I wonder what people are crying about now.
They've moved on to crying about gay and trans people now.
I'm just glad all the racists in the world will die lonely and forgotten. You make world a hell hole to live in with your petty grudges.
For real, for real, no cap, no cap.

Would the answer to this question make any difference?
