also, in light of such devastating and tragic news, it absolutely baffles me that some people try to use it for political arguments. the amount of comments i’ve seen about “we don’t care! this is a x page (food, sports, etc.)!” like, this man has changed so many lives and been a role model and outstanding person in general, and you try to disregard his death because you don’t care? if you don’t care then carry on with your business. their are hundreds of thousands of people grieving, as evident in the trends and newsfeeds of various social media sites.
one that absolutely made me flare with anger was “ok, so now the next Black Panther should be WHITE (!). you know, for diversity.” that is so offensive and inconsiderate. Chadwick was the first black superhero to lead a movie in a titular role in the MCU. if you want white superheroes for you our your children to look up to or to satisfy your need for “white diversity,” then go watch the first 17 movies in the MCU. seriously. it made me sick to my stomach and so beyond angry that i was literally shaking.
let’s all be kind to each other, especially in the wake of such a tragedy.
