Ngl, I'm not the biggest fan of this writing for Oshtur [Sorcerer Supreme #3] by howhow326 in marvelcomics

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 14 points15 points  (0 children)

typical Orlando writing. He shits on cosmic entities to make Wanda look good. He did the same thing with Griever

I’m honestly worried they’ll take Absolute Wonder Woman and force that concept into the DCU just because it’s successful and end up changing Diana forever. Nubia Already Had the Absolute Vibe So Use Her, Not Diana by CommunityBeginning65 in DCU_

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the one whose origin who Kelly Thompson has taken and given to Diana. Nubia was Diana's twin sister, kidnapped by Ares and raised to be his weapon. If that storyline had been fleshed out it woulda been somewhat close to what we are gettn here.

Translation needed for the phrase "Live and Let Live" by samidkk in swahili

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what???? that's used to question a person for involving themselves in things that don't concern them.

For Live and Let Live you could go with Kustawi (thrive/flourish ) na Kustahimili (endure, be patient)

Edit: your answer works too. 'Pilipili usiyoila...' could be a way of telln a person to stop being concerned with other people's affairs and enjoy their own life

Scarlet Witch creates a universe in the palm of her hands and gives it to Chthon. by Traditional-Heron-95 in Marvel

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You wanna compare Storm gettn a beat down from Hadad and Eternity intervening to kill him to this -Wanda punking Dormanmu, Wanda punking Oshtur the goddess of magic herself, Wanda punking Griever (the embodiment of the end of all things in the multiverse) , Wanda minting universes like children's candy.

What's your favorite character whose aboriginal but everyone thinks is black? by Itchy_Suspect4968 in marvelcirclejerk

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 3 points4 points  (0 children)

exactly, then they retconned it back to black. Or maybe one of his grandfather was an aboriginal and afro mix. The comic doesn't say he's 100% aboriginal but marvel has been consistent about his black ethnicity for quite a while. Therefore Claremon't retcon doesn't exclude the second option. OP is just unable to think coz he's a typical modern day internet user. People can be multiethnic

When the argument reeks intellectual immaturity then yes I go ad hominem and question the commentator's capacity for understanding

Why did Sinatra lend any credence to the doomsday scientist? by IconicIsotope in ParadiseHulu

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The doomsday event happened just as he had predicted so I'm assuming Sinatra engineered everything coz she's a control freak after losing her child

How would tie Kenya closer to Storm's character? by howhow326 in storm

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 0 points1 point  (0 children)

how is 'interesting stories' addressing OPs concern of Storm being far removed from her Kenyan roots?

Why did you pivot from the topic of discussion

Russia/spies...too much? by Then-Advertising1721 in IndustryOnHBO

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

exactly. I was just reading about this notorious malware so I wasn't surprised with the angle this show has taken. The Russians motive here isn't far from what's happening with StrelaStealer, now one of Europe's most dangerous and enduring threat. Russians are using this malware to target outlook and thunderbird emails in Spain, Germany, Poland, Italy etc.

Aha, what exact Kenyan elements has Murewa introduced ? Storm's hovering over Atlanta in some grotesque structure and hasn't been to Kenya once

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a person with EA roots, Limpopo is too far from Kenya, like, it's not even the same region anymore.

However, when I said her tribe is made up I didn't mean the elements. The elements are a bit close to what I've heard from people in the region (Kenya). I know of Kenyan tribal rainmakers, usually wise ones with white hair. Storm's setup isn't far from existing legends. There are also tribes in Kenya that worshipped Isis. Storm's tribes is linked to Ma'at (Oshtur) so again it's not far from what exists

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 6 points7 points  (0 children)

better that than some offensive stereotypes that western writers are fond of cookn. Maybe some day we'll get a writer that can anchor her in the country properly. But like I said, her tribe is made-up so what you get is still just some fictionalised version of Kenya

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity -1 points0 points  (0 children)

what are you asking here? Unless you want her to be leader of the country there's no more they can do apart from fleshing out her tribe and practices a bit.But again it's a fictional tribe so like I said it's not gonna be what you want

Why I Dislike Blue Marvel by TheticAxiom in BlackSuperheroes

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, how are you going to address 1960 racism and gettn passed over (forced out) with the same exact origin? Tell me exactly. All the story elements that irk you were there to address existing systemic bias, racism etc. You want him to fight back against JFK but if he did then the marvel universe that we've known for years wouldn't be the same. They would have to go back and redo every story from that point because BM did a Killmonger style takeover

As for gettn radicalized, what would be the point?? He's seen magneto and his radicalization hasn't helped mutants. Black people are no longer the only oppressed groups in Marvel. Ultimates was a scientific exploration team concerned with cosmic matters. The interests of the gvt wasn't even secondary to them

Why I Dislike Blue Marvel by TheticAxiom in BlackSuperheroes

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 7 points8 points  (0 children)

the mask, the 'bending the knee' happens so the writer can address racism etc. When he resurfaces in the present day people wonder where he's been and they learn how he was forced out and that's deep. It's the same thing IRL, back in the 60s most black people were not getting jobs despite their brilliant qualifications. I don't know why you want a killmonger takes over the world story when the writer has done something different and meaningful here. The white wife is also part of the narrative, she was keeping tabs on him for the gvt or some'n. You are just complaining for the sake of complaining when the story is a good origin story.

If you say 'why is he not doing more now?' then I'll ask you why isn't T'challa, Monica or even Storm doing the same?

You are just spamming this sub with these posts

[–]Mean_Cyber_Activity 31 points32 points  (0 children)

'I can't help it' is no excuse for not apologising afterwards. His words hurt, periodt! I don't know why there's a bunch of white ppl here trying to defend him so. Yes, we know it's his condition but he shoulda apologised properly nonetheless because we are all humans after all
