Well if your bar is set at "someone wrote an article somewhere" then I suppose you're right. There are articles about a ton of shit.

I don't get any of the outrage for any casting decisions not directly related to the ability of the actor to properly portray the character they are being paid to be. One of the best decisions Marvel ever made was who they cast as Fury.
I guess it probably depends on the circles you run in. People do seem to be more pussified in general today than they did 20 years ago so I'd imagine there are more bleeding vaginas all around.

I don't really associate much with either side (aside from the conservative crowd here on CP), but both sides are really ****ing annoying at this point. There's nothing wrong with wanting some representation, but don't take it too far. On the other side, not every black, woman, gay, trans person you see on TV is wOkE pAnDeRiNg. These people are out there. They're real and they exist. Why wouldn't we see them in the media sometimes?
