captain america brave new world was so real for letting sam have his moment of explaining how the weight of the shield is more than just being an avenger, but trying to succeed in a world that expects us black people to work twice as hard and long to get HALF the respect of our white peers.
like as an usa air force vet, i was humiliated in the military in ways that makes me roll my eyes at the american flag to this day. i was looked down because i am black and a woman. and i served during the obama administration. and my leaders were openly racist against obama too. it was wild.
i've been in the marvel fandom in and out for over a decade. never has this space welcomed black fans. we're told to be quiet and that its just comics and not that deep. but the Isaiah Bradley storyline in the movie? it IS that deep because the USA has done a number of horrors to black people in the military even after they served their country. imagine going to fight a war and to only be locked up when back at home in the good ol usa. that's american history.
i know people were super against the movie because of the free palestine movement and i thought about it. and then i remembered all the hate black people are given and have been given in the marvel fandom period and how it's all empty gestures with boycott this and that, until usually a movie with a black lead comes out.
most americans wouldn't even vote for kamala harris, a half black woman for president over this fucker trump, and you want to stan tony stark online and tell my black ass to miss out on sam wilson, a character deeply disrespected and hated by his own fandom, to boycott his first time to get the starring role?
y'all would never have this energy for boycotting if sebastian stan starred.
you constantly dismiss black people in real life, and then exclude us in fandoms, and then want to speak over black people who finally get a shot at a starring role as a superhero after years of saying how much you can't stand having black characters in the fandom? but you're posting free palestine?
y'all are some two faced bastards and i really DO hate the marvel klandom as a whole, hence why i don't fuck with y'all like that anymore, but this overall fuckery of the last us election, seeing y'all dick ride tony stark over the last decade, and now y'all wanna try to speak about palestine when you didn't even VOTE in the last several elections???? nah.
miss me with the bullshit.

Ah yes a portal for the most racist people alive to make people’s lives hell based on nothing.

i know I've reblogged it like thrice, but at the same time, this is how you fight fascism. Not just with giving them the violence they've given you. Not just by staying alive.
But also annoying the PISS out of them. You put in false reports.
You DDoS them. You put in so many false reports, so many visits to the website that they can't keep up. Enough people with enough false reports and they'll bend. They'll break.
It'll be too expensive to keep it up. Too costly to sift through all the false flags. They are but one organization of the American regime. And we are many.
A link, for those who are interested (and boy howdy am I). You know what to do. Go forth and Kung Pow Penis these fucks into the ground.

Well, Disney cancelled the Okoye spinoff.
It’s amazing how a company can fuck up a franchise that has given them the most accolades within the mcu. We all know why that is but it still sucks.
there needs to be tons of pressure and outrage that disney considers reversing this decision. We all know why this show got cancelled
So they’ll make any stupid fucking bullshit that doesn’t star a black woman. I see.
Can't wait for companies to stop announcing every idea they come up with and then "cancel" ones they never started working on. There definitely needs to be outrage about this - even if it works and Disney decides to work on an Okoye project again, there's a very good chance it would be a movie rather than a series.

I have a very cheesy yet extremely sad headcanon: trip, in heaven, takes care of hope. hope always asks him about her daddy and he goes on, telling the stories that Mack and the team shared together. hope watches over Mack, and definitely approves of Elena. I’m sorry just needed unrealistically cheesy shit to get me out of my damn feels.
Captain America Brave New World ✅ 4/5. Messy at times, but fun as hell. The negative reviews are overblown. Trailers were misleading though, clearly Winter Soldier inspired, but never got quite as dark or serious as that. My theater shared a ton of laughs. Anthony Mackie and Danny Garcia are so good together and Harrison Ford did a great job as Ross.
Sets up the X-Men in the MCU and feels like the start of a new era for marvel. I enjoyed this a lot even with the plot being underwhelming at times.

(1/3) The whole "reylo is the only feminist star wars ship" thing reminds me a lot of the "actually stucky is feminist and steggy is a straight man's ship" posts that the stucky shippers were pushing post endgame. I know there's a lot of racism tied up with the reylos and finn and john that didn't exist between the stucky shippers and peggy and hayley (although there was some internalized misogyny for sure), and that stucky shippers did have homophobia to contend with (although it's hardly true
(2/3) that every queer mcu fan shipped stucky), so I don’t want to make a false equivalence, but the “this ship between two men/white people is the only feminist option and we’re the real defenders of this woman/black character that we’ve spent years ignoring, and the queer women/people of color who claim to be their fans are the real misogynists and homophobes/racists” is really familiar. It’s clear that co-opting feminism to make their preferred ship into the Only Right Option when people
(3/3) don’t get the ending they wanted is becoming a Thing that needs to stop, but I’m not really sure how to address it. Those fandoms also have the “if everything isn’t about this white male side character all time, it’s bad writing” problem in common, and that feels related as well.
Ok so this is a very complicated topic and I’ll preface itby saying two things first I’m not actually familiar with the argument that “Reylois the only feminist star wars ship” because thankfully my dash is filled withsensible people that don’t inundate me with faux feminist opinions that try torebrand an abusive ship into a feminist ship. Second racism actually plays a partin the stucky shippers too and I’ll demonstrate why in a bit.
For those of you reading this I will pretend this is the first time you’ve ever encountered the assertion that Reylo is abusive statement. I’ll try to do this quickly but here goes. Kylo starts off by literally torturing her and telling her he can take whatever he wants. Invading not only her mind but initially hedoesn’t know she has the force. So its not a battle of equals we saw how easilyhe took what he wanted from Poe Dameron. She does eventually get into his head but this is just the first encounter. Then snoke bridges their minds together Kylo is constantly entering Rey’s mind telling her she’s nothing she comes from nothing he needs him to realize her full potential. Mind you Kylo had years ofjedi training he probably knows someone bridged their minds together onpurpose. Rey is horrified this is the man who killed a good man his own fatherin cold blood and put her new friend in a coma. But Kylo keeps at her tellingher its inevitable that they’ll be together. (Some extra bits of fandom herethe Reylos are not shy with their fanon that Kylo/Ben was neglected as a childby his parents, which is completely a fabrication. They also say he’s beenbrainwashed which while confirmed by TROS that Palpatine was impersonating his Grandfather Darth Vader/Anakin this does not answer the why of the matter that if Finn, who was stolen from his parents, could fight the brainwashing why not Kylo? Another bit of contention I absolutely hated how they wrote Luke in TLJ and while I accepted it doesn’t explain why Kylo killed all the padawanlearners that didn’t join him.) TL:DR of this section: going back to Kylo’s abusive behavior, calling Rey nothing, invading her mind, insisting that she leave her new friends that care for her and support her to be with him is classic abusive behavior. Don’t believe me check out Lundy Buncroft.
Moving on how is stucky vs steggy racist? Its quite simple really, in the fact that if anyone was written to be romantic interest for steve besides Peggy it was Samnot Tony, Natasha or Bucky. There’s a great meta post I’m not sure is on thisblog but it should be on mcufhpoc if you care to dig about how Sam was writtenas a love interest framed by the story in the winter soldier to perfectly setSteve up to be bisexual. Now I have nothing against Bucky but Steve spent most of his time violently at odds with Bucky in the winter soldier and civil war. Not exactly what you would want from a ship. Why do you think so much Stucky fanfic is about preserum Steve/Bucky? Gross implications about ableism aside it was for years the only way you could justify the ship. The only other optionin canon was Sharon but frankly the writers of the mcu seemed to hate herreducing her role substantially from what was originally planned. There was allsorts of cries incest (when literally this is the same fandom that ships Thorkiabout two brothers who were raised as brothers except one of them happens to beadopted. Like they can’t even get the definition of incest right Steve was dating Peggy not Peggy and Sharon.) Also he didn’t know they were related until years after he met Sharon. I’m only including this Sharon bit because it demonstrates so nicely the kind of internalized misogyny in display in this fandom. According to Stucky fans no woman is worthyof Steve only the white dude he grew up with and fought several times and btw they make the most sense when Steve is being cared for preserum/sarcasm. Which brings me to the other big Steve ship Stony. That’s a huge ship and they can barely stand each other in canon.
TL;DR of this section its obvious from the numbers that Stucky and Stony are the only ships that matter the fandom only really wants is white dudeslash.
Btw its not actually feminist for so many straight women to ship dudes. Gay men have been begging for straight women to listen to them about this for years.
Last implicit question: What phenomenon is actually at work here if it doesn’t fit feminism because Reylo is abusive and Stucky just shows off the tip of the iceberg of internalized misogyny?
Answer: Its white supremacy.
Which goes back to your statement of “Those fandoms also have the “if everything isn’t about this white male side character all time, it’s bad writing” problem in common, and that feels related as well.”
These fandoms and all fandoms really can only fathom fandom as yet another way of obsessing over white men.

Let’s talk about Isaiah and Sam.
I think it says a lot about their relationship that Sam was able to get Isaiah to start training with him in the first place. This was a war torn man who lived as a hermit away form the world for so many years. Only to have this human ray of sunshine constantly show up at his door, checking up on him, maybe even asking about his garden, talking to his nephew, and just being there in the quiet moments with him for the 3(?) years they have known each other.
God I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when Sam first proposed the idea to him. There’s also a level of trust there too, Isaiah being willing to coach Sam, being anywhere near combat in general. But Isaiah wants Sam to succeed, he wants him to be what he was never allowed to.
And despite it all Isaiah will do everything in his power to make sure Sam is ready for anything the world tries to throw at him. There is so much generational and familial love in that relationship that I could write entire essays on.
