The thing about Marvel Superhero movies and other movies and tv shows being discussed as silly, demonstrates how some don't understand how it works.
The entertainment industry is the greatest propaganda machine the world has ever known. Bigger than public education or even religion.
In fact people saying it's not that serious shows how even more effective it is. Because people let their guard down and accept whatever they're exposed to without rejecting it.
Which is why whites overwhelmingly finance
*Black trauma movies/tv shows
*White male doctor shows
*White savior movies,
*Slave movies/tv shows
*Pro-cop shows
Because that's the world they want and what they want people to think about whites and Black people.
And it reminded me of a video that came out when Black panther did and it was a black dude that was astonished at the Black posters and carboard cutouts of the characters from the movie and he asked, "Is this what it's like for white people all the time?"
Yes it is. They're always the protagonists (good or bad) and psychologically it shows that they're in control in any situation. So white kids grow up thinking they can be anything they want to be. And that message is beamed out 24/7 and it doesn't depend on their parents or friends. It's just always shown to them.
Which is why the fight over what's in Black Panther matters. Or the Woman King. Or other Black movies and tv shows. Because where else do you see Black people represented? Religion? All the major religions are anti-Black. Public Education? It's anti-Black. Self Education? That's individual not mass education.
Don't even bother breh, they're just playing dumb.
Everyone knows the first movie was groundbreaking because of it's depiction of Black people which went against the general global image Hollywood puts out regarding black people.
It presented masculine heterosexual black men as leaders and protectors of a powerful black society while still working in tandem with their powerful black women (who even still had leadership roles). With ZERO dysfunction.
Now that's all been torpedoed to put out a shea butter narrative and altered image that Black Women don't need black men/"we all we got" which is why they have "removed the black men" to hammer down this point.
Even Chadwick Boseman said he did the first movie primarily to change the thought process of how Black people can be viewed, he understood the power of imagery. "Bu-bu-but it's just a movie"
But apparently pointing the sudden 180 out means you're incel, "hate women", "just want to see men"
