All those mtogow\ incel communities are so toxic.

Well, yeah, they can't figure out why women don't recognize their natural charm. Of course the reality is that they don't want girlfriends or relationships. They want women who will have sex with them and be arm candy when they go to movie premieres or comic book conventions. The rest of the time they don't want to be bothered. They don't want to take a woman out to dinner, or talk to her about her interests and they certainly don't want her around when they're playing their video games. But yeah, it's all the fault of the women.

Any "negative" type space turns toxic really quickly. Even if it has good intentions.

Misery loves misery and it just builds on itself. Especially in "exclusive" like subsections of the internet.

It was BP #200 milestone issue.

About zero effort was put into it. Just two back up stories. No promotion whatsoever.

The biggest black character at Marvel hits a milestone issue and there wasn't a peep about it.

They had more effort put into the Annual they did a couple years ago.

Sad but true & not shocking since they forget about it twice & technically it’s really like issues 220-230 something..

Why Do People Assume Black Folks Aren’t Into Anime When We’ve Been Here the Whole Time? by Brianna Lawrence

The amazing thing is that after being an anime fan for nearly thirty years, this thing that a handful of us would geek out about has really taken off. No one back in the 90s ever thought we’d reach a point where anime would be breaking box office records while manga landed on bestselling lists, but here we are – not just as fans, but as active participants in the industry.

We’re voicing characters. We’re creating our own stories. We’re, well, writing articles during Black History Month to celebrate Black anime talent.

But for some reason which I, to this day, cannot comprehend, I remember being told that Black people (especially girls) just “weren’t into that kind of thing,” as if I wasn’t passing around those VHS tapes to other Black kids at my high school. Those Black kids were watching the Tenchi Muyo movie on that Sci-Fi (SyFy) Channel anime block just like I was, and those that weren’t? Knew who Goku and Sailor Moon were by word of mouth.

We were out there. We always have been.

By the way, the difference between Whoopi Goldberg being suspended vs Gina Carano getting fired probably has more to do with Goldberg being a way more popular host of a way more popular show vs Carano being a moderately famous person playing side character on a show...rather than some imagined "double standard".

Or one apologized and one didn't?

Exactly.

And she didn’t double down and the “mis-speak”.
