Finally a major blockbuster that isn't woke


At least people say it's not. I haven't seen it yet.

Last I checked Zendaya was still black and Ned is still a Pacific Islander. Have the goalposts been moved? These two were the source of much outrage a few years ago

Anyway, I'm glad you fellas are at least not shitting on a new movie for once. But do you literally have to go movie-by-movie telling us whether it's "woke" or not?

There’s also a joke where electro references miles morales and says he assumed Spider Man was black because he helps people

At least Zendaya didn't mention slaves for no reason like in Homecoming, and Ned never went on a tangent about Pacific Islander representation or fat positivity. Previous MCU movie had color-washed characters too, but most of them didn't have the characters blurt out woke dialogue or mistreat certain people just because of how they looked, nor were most MCU movies marketed as woke or had woke subtext.

When activists stop demanding for everything to be "inclusive", which they define as "the less straight white people, the better", people will stop pointing out when something is woke.

Had Kathleen Kennedy been at the helm, Peter would have gone through gender reassignment surgery to become "Patricia", and would have turned in his skintight spiderman suit for a "furry" costume of a spider. Instead of shooting webs, "she" would scritch enemies into submission.

Green goblin would have been the misunderstood hero and Spider-loli would have been portrayed as the bad girl.

Why you say its not woke? Is that because they didnt put the little black boy spiderman in it but brought back all the white spidermen? The little black boy spiderman won them a oscar!!
