I think there was definitely a few years where the writing was lackluster and audiences couldn't keep up with the streaming show tie ins etc. In the case of these three characters specifically thats true for all of them

That's the thing though, the writing was lacklustre. People weren't getting sick of superhero movies, they were getting sick of mediocre superhero movies.

To be precise we are literally tired of wokism thrown in our superhero movies where there is none required.

That’s the reality of it yet this whole thread is full mental gymnastics to avoid this answer

Must be the wokies themselves then. That's what they do, try their best to escape accountability.

Imagine unironically using the word wokies and not dying of embaressement on the spot.

Define "wokeism".

Opposite of reality.

Well considering Superheroes are known for doing shit like breaking the laws of physics, or going to alternate dimensions and stuff, I don't think that was the problem...

u/Fun-Practice-1087 14h ago

Reality is more than just Physics. It's also philosophy and common sense.

Wokies may not break physics based reality but they sure do break moral philosophy and common sense surrounding it with their own race, gender and pedophilic agenda.

AOC called woke 1 crazy recently lol

I'm not AOC, nor am I talking to her (probably).

My point is even super liberal politicians are calling out the initial wokeism aka woke 1

It's not some undefinable thing that never existed

u/nagrom7 1d ago

So what is it then?

Far left ideologies brought into mainstream culture:

  • land acknowledgements before events
  • defund the police
  • ACAB
  • pronouns in social media bios
  • "all lives matter" is racist
  • public cancel culture for not being fully on board with the above items
  • cisgender white men being bad
  • some politicians calling to cancel Thanksgiving

Those are some of the main tenants from the top of my head. Google has much better definitions but I didn't wanna copy paste.

These bullet points are the same ones AOC classified this month as "crazyyy"

u/nagrom7 1d ago

So where were any of those points being pushed in the MCU?

It's multiple factors. Superhero fatigue is a real thing.

They should've kept the movies and shows relatively separate. Wanda shouldn't have been in Multiverse of Madness. Falcon and the Winter Soldier should've been a movie. They should've kept characters like Kate Bishop around because they were cool.

Yeah... And is there chance I could logically convince you, that it was not a coincidence that the writing was shit, while also being overtly progressive?
