Why are comics so PC now? This shit wouldn't fly ten years ago, now it's the only way they write them.
>>
>>78472715
PC comes and goes in cycles.
>>
How exactly is this PC?
>>
Ten years ago we had different gimmicks. This is a gimmick to boost sales, and it too will pass.
>>
>>78472747
No it doesn't. This won't got away, 20 years ago it was just getting its bearings. It's not a very established way of communication, PC is here to stay.

White straight males are dead to the world now. Women and minorities want to be in charge? Let them, they will reap what they sow.

Pregnancy? The literal reason you and everyone else is here?

You're doing great, OP.
>>
>>78472715
the question is why has it been so RAPID with nothing in between
and how can a movement base itself entirely on 'we are an oppressed minority' when they were instantly in control of everything without the slightest hint of opposition let alone oppression.
>>
Pregnancy is not a new thing.
>>
>This shit wouldn't fly ten years ago

Yes it would. The SJW/PC crowd is easily startled but they soon come back, and in greater numbers.

The thing is, comics critics are shit.

If you don't believe me, ask yourself why websites are cited over people?

That should explain exactly why it's no good.

But this series in particular? Pretty sure it's not flying at all.

What's PC about a pregnant woman putting herself and her unborn child in danger by going out and being a superhero while pregnant?

Comic book companies have realized that they weren't making money selling to people like us who pirate most of what we read, so they're marketing towards an audience that doesn't pirate books.

Yeah but it wasn't her that put herself into danger. She was just doing a chekup. The blame is on the idiots that put a prenatal hospital into a black hole, stopping any possibility of external help and forcing pregnant mothers to act if they don't want to be killed by skrulls.

A lot of millennials either in or just past college age educated by generally leftist/socially progressive professors (who were in turn educated by leftist/socially progressive professors and on and on) make connections with each other. They start their own sites or get connections with people who write for sites where they're able to push their views. Those people get jobs in the industry, nepotism ensues and they hire their friends all of who exist in a little bubble and echochamber.

You then add social media where you get the most attention by being the loudest so people become more extreme in their views and then block o mute anyone they disagree with creating an environment that encourages more extreme thinking and shouting.

Older writers recognizing what way the wind is blowing and wanting to get work decide to go along with it (whether out of genuine beliefs or cynical cashing in).

Companies see the people on social media, many of who have never and will never read a comic, and decide that since they're so loud they need to be listened to so please promote more books that these types of people would like.

Ok. Then explain how most of the people that this type of book targets being almost entirely anti-child. Go look at the chicks screaming about child-free(skrull)Jess saying she didn't like kids on tumblr.

This isn't targeting them. This is just the writer writing something relevant to him at the moment.

Targeting those people are female led books with an all women or gay male cast (Or the occasional male love interest) doing stories about girl power, gentrification, and saving women from bad boyfriends.
