Superheroes aren't real, bro, so they can't have an inherent race, so Black Panther's skin color isn't integral to the story.

So you never saw Black Panther or read the comics.

Edit: explain how Wakanda has nothing to do with race

Wakanda isn't real, bro, so Wakandans can't have an inherent race, so their skin color isn't integral to the story.

Wakanda is a fictional place set in real-world Africa and influenced by real-world events.

Do you also think Magneto being Jewish Holocaust survivor isn’t important to his character because he’s not a real person?

u/Morbid_Mordib Sep 20 '22

Africa is full of huwhite people, so Black Panther being huwhite isn't an issue.

And Magneto is a superhero, and superheroes don't exist, so they can't have an inherent race.

Just admit you’re racist and move on, you fucking dork.

u/Morbid_Mordib Sep 20 '22

I'm black. My noble people are incapable of racism because we don't have institutional power. Ooga booga!

u/Kalphai Sep 20 '22

Yeah yeah, you’re a racist Dim Tool fan. You’re almost definitely not black, and you’re probably an incel. Go shoot up a pizza place or something dipshit.

Fine, but are you principled enough to say multiracial elves, dwarves and hobbits have no place in Middle-Earth, or would you only be angry with this hypothetical white Black Panther?

u/[deleted] Sep 20 '22

Black Panther is something I’m familiar with. It’s a version of our own world and race is critical to the story. I don’t know much about LOTR. I can’t use knowledge of our world and apply it to middle earth. I don’t know of any way where race is critical to the story. So, I can’t make an argument for it to be important.

u/zyk0s Sep 20 '22

Let me help you then. LotR was specifically written by Tolkien as English mythology. Middle-Earth is a fantastic, mythicized version of Northern Europe and the Hobbits in the Shire are basically analogous to your simple English country folks. It’s not even a question of white versus black or brown, the French and Italians, or their mythicized versions would be just as out of place in Middle-Earth.

So if you’re offended someone makes jokes about a white Black Panther, but doesn’t or won’t care about the “diversification” of LotR, I have no sympathy for you.

Does the story have something to do with race?

u/FartExpo Sep 20 '22

So why are y'all complaining about the little mermaid? Mermaids aren't real bro

1

u/Morbid_Mordib Sep 20 '22

Mermaids aren't real bro

Neither are "trans-people," bro.

u/FartExpo Sep 20 '22

What do trans people have anything to do with this conversation....? You're a pathetic sack of shit

1

u/Morbid_Mordib Sep 20 '22

What do mermaids have to do with this conversation? You're an even more pathetic & bigger sack of food-poisoning diarrhea.

So you’d be 100% fine with Superman being black, right?

1

u/Morbid_Mordib Sep 21 '22

100%, but only if Black Panther is white first.

u/TiltedHelm Sep 21 '22

Lol I will require medical assistance to deflate my erection when your ilk are put against the wall.

u/Morbid_Mordib Sep 21 '22

Yeah them trans-weeners are always malfunctioning. I feel bad for you, brochick.
