James Gunn's rebooted "Superman" officially opens Friday. In the run-up to the release, including a Hollywood premiere on Monday, conservative idiots are whining about Gunn's remarks about the Man of Steel, describing Superman as an "immigrant", because, well, technically, he is.
Fox No News' Kellyanne Conway led the complaints there, branding the hero as "Superwoke". As per usual, conservatives use "woke" as a buzzword without offering any definition or context as to why. It's just an excuse to have something to complain about to rile up their low information viewer base.
Look, if you're basing your argument on just the filmmaker's remarks, having not screened the movie yourselves, then you've got nothing, as usual. Take the time to see the film, then whine. It's that simple.
True story. A friend relayed to me the tale of how the late Doug DeLisle, long time film critic for El Cheapo Media, gave the first "Star Wars" movie a bad review when it came out. After DeLisle showed up at the grocery where the friend worked after school, and got excoriated for his perceived ignorance, DeLisle went back and took a 2nd look at what is now an iconic franchise, and changed his tune.
The furor over "Superman" will not have died down fast enough for conservatives to latch onto something else to complain about, involving another iconic franchise.
2nd generation model Lila Moss, daughter of Kate Moss, created a variation on Mattel's iconic Barbie, one diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, which the younger Moss has.
Already, there are goobers posting on Yahoo!, complaining about the new doll, exposing their ignorance. As a type 2 diabetic myself, I look at "Diabetic Barbie" as a teaching tool, and, parents, you should, too. As they used to say in the commercials back in the day, the doll "comes with everything you see here", referring to the image above.
It's just a matter of time before we hear some whining on Fox No News, Newsnacks, et al. Just sayin'.
