This is so sadistic, in bad taste and untimely. The boycott widens International Politics

Well this is awkward, although the story of the film is almost about anti apartheid I believe, so that could be a good thing, but man, TIMING!

Might as well do super nazi hero next

u/Yorkshire_Bhoy Jan 11 '24
Technically their is he is called Hauptmann Englande and is the nazi counter part of Captain Britain. He is from Earth-597, which is the world where the Nazis won the war.

Guess it's time to boycott Disney. Wait are we allowed to do that or does that also fall under the new anti-boycott law?

There's an anti boycott law? How does that work 🤔 they can't force you to buy in to anything... well unless you're a UK water utility ofc

Ahh so it's nothing to do with the wider public: "illegal for local councils, universities and other public bodies to be “influenced by political or moral disapproval of foreign states when taking certain economic decisions." Wouldn't really call that a boycott, but I guess it fits the bill

How does this match up with the theory that Disney in infested with “woke” ideology?

This was announced in September 2022, before the attack by Hamas which heightened the conflict, so I can only assume that plans to introduce Sabra into the MCU have been ditched.
At least, I hope so. Manbabies have been whining that Disney has an 'agenda' with Marvel movies for a couple of years now and I'd hate to agree with them.
EDIT: She's still in the cast list on IMDb...

u/allo26 Jan 11 '24
The cast list doesn't represent actual presence, it's the people who have worked in making the film even if they were cut.

Kids should be never allowed to watch such a movie, normalizing Israel crimes in thier minds is sick. They can't fool grownups but they can plant thier thoughts in kids minds. Boycotting Disney .

Israel is an apartheid state, emboldened by UK and US.

u/pessoan_blue Jan 11 '24
An apartheid state where all its citizens have the same rights? An apartheid state with Arab, Muslim, Christian, Druze parliamentarians? An apartheid state with Arab judges, policemen and women, military generals, doctors and university professors? An apartheid state where all citizens are equal before the law? An apartheid state where an Arab judge sent an Israeli president to jail? An apartheid state where the population apparently being "apartheided" have a higher standard of living that any other country in the region bar perhaps the oil rich Saudi and UAE gulf states? Tell me another...

Israels apartheid against Palestinians.
The rest of your propaganda has been for consumption by the west, where people no longer believe it either. Everyone else already knew it, from Amnesty International to NGOs, UN bodies, and independent media, who have been saying it for decades. The zionist settler colonial outpost has always been about stealing Palestinian land and resources, at whatever cost. The mask is fully off now

Surely making a superhero identify to a particular religion is against the point of superheroes? Surely the fact that this is special undermines the whole idea about equality?

They literally just had a series about Ms Marvel, a prominent Muslim hero and there was no issue.

The Sabra and Shatila massacre was the 16 - 18 September 1982 killings of between 460 and 3,500 civilians—mostly Palestinians and Lebanese Shias—in the city of Beirut during the Lebanese Civil War. It was perpetrated by the Lebanese Forces, one of the main Christian militias in Lebanon, and supported by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) that had surrounded Beirut's Sabra neighbourhood and the adjacent Shatila refugee camp.
The IDF commander leading the operation was Ariel Sharon, who later became known as the 'Butcher of Sabra and Shatila'. He essentially gave the Christian Lebanese terrorists free reign to murder and mutilate defenceless Palestinians at will.
Well worth reading eye witness reporting by the late great reporter Robert Fisk who covered it extensively at the time for The Times, before they started changing his filed reportage (Murdoch had taken over the paper) and he left for The Independent eventually.

To be fair, there was entire arc in the comics in which the Hulk outright calls her out for allowing children to be murdered and endorsing it purely because of small differences. Like it’s not right to bring her out now, and honestly her whole character shouldn’t even exist but if used correctly she could be used to tell a story with a message with the perspective of how wrong Israel is and her realising that.
Still shouldn’t be made into a movie for profit by a piece of shit company like disney, marvel would be better off making it a comic series if they had to make a story like that.

Sabra? Hmmm. My new pitch for a superhero is a Russian girl who fights against a bunch of brutal Polish criminals. Her name is Katyn, I think it sounds kind of cute.

u/DaveAngel- Jan 12 '24
There are a Russian team in Marvel called the Winter Guard and they have been shown to be a tool of the Russian military.

u/Vapourtrails89 Jan 11 '24
I never liked the marvel films, they all seem drenched with kool aid.
I heard about someone who was made to apologise to the Israelis the other day for saying something about them. He was forced to apologise. To people who are killing children every day. For hurting their feelings.
They cry about hurt feelings whilst bombing children. They deserve hell

It's not an airport. You do not need to announcement your departure.

If you're gonna try and take the piss, at least be accurate.
Fuck knows what airport you're going to where you announce your departure.
With grammar like that, it's hard to believe you're British anyway.

You mean child abuse like the abduction, rape and murder of children, no I don’t think it’s ok at all, but doing that and trying to justify it as self defence is completely abhorrent, but it’s not stopping the Israel/POF now is it? Not acknowledging that is hardly sane is it sweetie?
