Wait is bullying okay or not? I. thought after that pornstar killed herself just over mean tweets we agreed it was unacceptable?

This is entirely different and you know it.

If the kid was going around calling people the n-word, or saying racist shit to people, then he, in fact, was the one that started bullying. Then he played the victim card when everybody fought back.

I don't actually think that's any different, though I thought the former was fair, next, too. Sorry to disappoint.

Yeah it is. August Ames wasn't going around bullying people.

I mean, according to you, sure. I just think your rational thinking is being clouded by titties.

Like I said, sorry dude

Oh okay, so you're trolling. Gotcha.

Nope, just care about my gay brothers as much as I care about my black brothers and sisters. Sorry you don't.

That's great. I do too.

The problem is that these situations aren't even remotely comparable. One person makes a homophobic twitter comment directed at no one in particular, the other person is (allegedly) actively going around harassing his schoolmates.

I'm reserving full judgment once the facts come out, but kids from his school apparently posted on the parents' page saying that he was the one that started it.

Here's my opinion on it:

His parents are clearly racists. He was most liking talking their bullshit at school and got backlash for it, in which case, fair, next.

If not, then I genuinely feel bad for the kid.

But honestly, this whole situation reeks of his mother trying to exploit this shit for fame.

you guys know this has pretty bad ramifications right

they're not doing this so we can have x-men in marvel movies

That's obviously a big reason why they're doing it. The other reason is to gain full ownership of the Star Wars films.

The other shit is basically a cherry on top, and I doubt they'd be that interested in a deal without the X-Men/F4/Star Wars aspect of it.

what's the hangup with F4? and, more importantly, what does it mean for Super Skrull, Galactus, and Doom?

Long story short: Constantine Films owns the production rights for the F4, while Fox owns the film rights to them. Therefore, Disney can't really do anything with the F4 until they strike a deal with Constantine Films.

It's not that much of a cause for alarm (since the F4 film rights don't mean shit to Constantine films without the ability to actually distribute them) but it does add another complication to the F4 returning back to Marvel Studios.

Many non-mutants have powers similar to mutants, but they dont get accused of being mutants.

Actually, Spider-Man has been mistaken for a mutant a couple of times, to the point where the X-Men tried to make him a member.

Same with Deadpool. The nature of Namor and Blade's mutations are entirely different from the typical mutant you'd see within the X-Men, but in modern comics they're lumped in with the X-Men (though Blade isn't an official member).

Warlock counts too. Member of the New Mutants, but he's entirely different from the mutants you see running around in Xavier's Mansion.

On the flip side, you have legitimate mutants and X-Men who people mistake for being something else. Storm being the prime example, people thought she was a goddess.

I have nothing else to say

The general complaint seems to be "why are x group with superpowers beloved but y group with superpowers hated?"

A couple of counterarguments:

1) There are several Marvel heroes who DON'T have good publicity who aren't X-Men. Spider-Man, especially early on in his career. Ghost Rider. Daredevil. Hulk. The Thing. Recent characterizations of the Inhumans lend towards this. Namor (even before he became an official X-Men member). The only ones who actually have GOOD publicity are members of one of two major groups: The Avengers and The Fantastic Four.

The Avengers is a government agency led by the literal poster boy for truth, justice and the American way and who is a literal war hero. Before that, it was led by multi-billionaire and industrialist Tony Stark. The Fantastic Four, on the other hand, already had good publicity before they even became superheroes simply due to them being well-renowned scientists, astronauts, etc., and even THEN, those two groups both have members who were feared and/or hated.

2) Humans fear mutants precisely because of the fear that mutants will take over the human species as the dominant species. That's not a fear with the Captain America, who was manmade, or the Fantastic Four, where the event that resulted in them can be prevented, without resorting to eugenics or mass genocide. Mutants, however, are naturally occurring, and there's not a damn thing humanity can do to stop mutants from breeding and creating more without a) sterilizing all of them or b) killing ANYBODY who possesses the X-gene, which includes non-mutants.

"But people can't tell who's a mutant and who's not!"

No they can't make that distinction. But as established, they generally distrust anybody who isn't an Avenger or Fantastic Four member. Spider-Man, Hulk, etc., might as well be lumped in with the X-Men.

3) Civil War DID happen, and it caused people to be fearful of ANY superpowered person, mutant or not, unless they revealed themselves publicly to the world and registered as an agent of the government.

Are they all just broody talking like Daredevil with like a 2 minute action scene in each episode?

Eh....kinda sorta.

The thing I really enjoy about Punisher is that they discuss social issues regarding the way veterans are treated in this country, as well as discussion about gun control and national security, so even the "down" moments are interesting. Then when the action moments happen, they have a HUGE payoff.
---

I have nothing else to say

I would say The Punisher is probably the most consistent as far as tone, plot, characters, etc., out of all of the Netflix shows since the first season of Daredevil.

Daredevil Season 2 started off with the crime-drama element from the previous season, but then they just started throwing in mystical ninjas and shit. Not necessarily "bad", but it felt a bit disjointed from the first 4 or so episodes.

Then we all know what happened in Luke Cage...

Jessica Jones was fairly consistent throughout, but I'll admit it did get a bit slow.

Rick is still my favorite character besides Shane but that plan was so fucking stupid. Try to recruit the people that betrayed you.

Makes perfect sense.

To be fair, not any other options. The Kingdom's soldiers were roflstomped and The Saviors greatly outnumber everyone else.

Jadis isn't necessarily loyal to Negan, and Rick had a solid bargaining position because the Saviors were basically fucked.

Rawlins.

Holy shit, that was one of the most brutal things I've EVER seen. And usually excessive gore and violence doesn't get me like that.

I heard that this scene was brutal, too but my reaction watching this:

*stabs him several times*
"That's actually relatively tame compared to the rest of the series..."
*punches his face in*
"Nothing too crazy so far..."
*slits his throat*
"Ehh, still not b-"
*gouges his eyes out with his thumbs*
"OH FUCK OH FUCK OH FUCK"

So many Marvel characters are X-Men it's ridiculous.

There's probably more Avengers overall than there are X-Men.

The only characters I can think of who joined the X-Men after their creation as a character (you know, besides characters who were on the various different X-Men spinoff teams or were previous enemies) are Wolverine and Namor.

Holy shit we might actually see Doctor Doom in an MCU movie...

I have nothing else to say

The way I see it is this.

Captain America, Spider-Man, Fantastic Four, etc., are all incidents created by man. Yes, some of them may have "accidentally" been created, but they were the result of man regardless.

The mutants, on the other hand, are entirely natural, which means that it's technically out of man's control who does or doesn't become a mutant (of course, we see humanity TRY to control the mutant population, but that usually requires extreme measures that raises a metric-ton of ethic concerns). It's that underlying fear that even a seemingly "normal" couple can give birth to a mutant who could, for instance, level an entire city block just by crying as an infant. And unlike say, Thor, who is also the result of a natural childbirth, he's from a different race entirely, so there's no fear that somebody would accidentally give birth to Thor unless they're an Asgardian God.

Of course, they tried to explain this away a couple of years ago that humans just naturally have this chemical in their body that literally tells them to hate mutants, but that's kinda dumb.

You also have to consider the difference between the X-Men and a group like say, The Fantastic Four. Well-renowned scientists whose story has been publicly shown and documented who generally do good things for society, even disregarding their superpowers. Or Captain America a.k.a. a war veteran and the poster boy for good ol' fashion American traditions and ideals.

Then you get the X-Men. Not really well-known heroes within the larger context of the Marvel Universe. They don't really get to build good publicity by fighting car thieves and muggers, since more often than not, they're fighting other, crazier, more genocidal mutants, the most notable of whom literally wants to start a race war. In the eyes of humanity, you don't really get props for fighting against a problem that you're kinda sorta part of.
