Instead we got a creator being told not to create a character based on the creators skin color. As this is about political correctness, why can't you just say, full stop, telling someone they can't create something because of their skin color is wrong? I'd think that be the easiest thing to be on board with regarding political correctness.
On the Panther story, I made a joke about with a friend elsewhere about how Grant Morrisons New X-Men finale is problematic because (Magneto revealed to have been in elaborate yellowface for 3 years, Jean mindwarping Scott into staying with his mistress being kinda rapey and messed up that she's playing matchmaker for her cheating husband and his side piece). Someone here, like 6 months later, mentioned how problematic that run is. I was reading a blog awhile back with a listing of characters, someone being very progressive minded was saying how much they hate the Marvel character Rage because he's a black man named Rage (should've just called him black Rage, was one of the things said there).
You can think it's unlikely, at this point I'm ready to put a moratorium on the Panther issue as I feel I've made a good case for why sliding it forward 15 years as a new story would freak out some people, particularly if you took the Panther saying he'd been thinking like a Nazi issue and released it as brand new in let's say February of 2018. I can see where there would be modern controversy. Not following that Star Wars drama, sounds really dumb. Don't particularly care about the new films, Rogue One being an exception as I quite liked it
