Why do SJWs and normies hate the Iron Fist? He's a minority taking on a majority role. I thought they loved that stuff?

From what I understand, it's because of iron fist's problematic roots as a white savior stereotype. The idea that if a white person was dropped with no help and support into a foreign culture or circumstance, that they would automatically perform better at the duties of that culture than those who occupy it. I understand the argument that Danny is a subversion of this trope by being an outsider that has to prove himself, but the idea that Asians are good at martial arts is also a lazy stereotype, so there are problems all around.
But he's a minority taking back power from the majority
He's incredibly boring.
Because he hates the CCP.
So this is the latest attempt at dishonest contrarian wokeness, is it?
He would be if he was a white dude born and living in China and writing this there, not a white dude in America going "lol, martial arts are so cool, too bad is asian people doing them".
You already made this thread yesterday.
>kung fu prodigy with zero personal skills
>kind of an idiot airhead forced into the world of business politics
I like him.
Yeah, but it was late and it died too soon!
Is it? I don't see what you mean.
His father was born in China and was more or less a slave until Randal Scott adopted him, so you could make an argument that he's partially chinese.
>Two clearly white people as parents
>Well technically he could be part chinese lmao
His dad, Wendell, was born and raised in China. Doesn't that make him Chinese?
Great question OP. I guess they are lying about how important diversity and minorities are. I mean, how many more examples will it take?
Because they want an asian hero in the MCU. They didn't give a shit until Iron Fist got his shitty netflix show then they all flipped out the kung-fu guy wasn't yellow.
That's another thing. It is blatantly racist to think only Chinese should do Kung-Fu. Of course, it actually doesn't matter that much but the colored-hair screechers fucking make all this noise about it while claiming to be the opposite of what is blatantly true.
Hypocritical Retards.
Yes, ironically SJWs are creating their own version of apartheid, segregating cultures under the name of 'diversity'.
Netflix shows deserved to die just for the fact that people behind them chose Scott Buck to run Iron Fist, fully knowing what he's capable of.
And because Daredevil was the only non-shit one.
He is wearing a silken catsuit and does kung-fu. Wooooow...It's a mystery why people don't care.
But he’s not a white savior, he literally abandons his position as defender of kun lun to get revenge and then spends his time on earth leaving his adopted home to fend for itself most of time.
Remember when american asians, because it’s always the twinkies that live here in the states, bitched about every asian in media always knowing martial arts. But as soon as it’s someone white doing martial arts they’re bitching about how it should’ve been an asian. You can’t win with some people.
Sjws aren't familiar with the things they campaign against.
To be fair he does ultimately improve K'unlun by ousting the corrupt nobility.
I wonder if people would chill if he is rebooted or revived alongside Shang Chi. I guess I know deep down the answer no.
>problematic roots as a white savior stereotype.
He literally leaves Kun Lun and spends his time as a Hero for Hire with Luke
Easily can tell you both are casuals who only know the character from the Netflix series
This might be a valid argument if he actually behaved like he was a regular Chinese person who happened to be an ethnic minority. It's not like China doesn't have a fair number of those.
I don't like iron fist because his show was dull as fuck and made defenders impossible to sit through
He's probably why daredevil got cancelled too
fuck him
So nothing based on the actual character itself but a show that was a dogshit low budget adaptation?
His roots are still in the white savior trope of white, same as with Dr. Strange. Just because Roy Thomas and Claremont were smart enough to subvert it with Danny to a degree by making him go to New York and be a fish out of water doesn’t exclude the roots that you see in similar characters like Tarzan, Congo Bill, etc.
He's not in an MCU movie.
The basic law that describes the quantum state of superhero characters is as follows:
"Any given character sucks, until they are included, announced to be included, or are popularly speculated to be included in an MCU movie".
If they revealed an Iron Fist trailer tomorrow, he would instantly be everyone's favorite character of all time and anyone objecting would be drowned out until they give up.
This, plus the natural reputation tanking that comes from a terrible movie/show, even if said show was nothing like the character(s) were originally depicted.
All the same things people are saying about Iron Fist now were things people said about Fantastic Four after Fan4stic.
With bad writing and poor actors.
All that cultural appropriation is just hippies getting their panties in a twist and giving free publicity.
Yet SJW give Strange a pass because he's played by Eggsbenedict Cucumberpatch.
just make him black
Yeah white bitches are the loudest about diversity yet on SM every one of them has one of the white hunks from the MCU as username or avatar.
Is Asian. Neither hate nor love Iron Fist. Indifferent to him at best. Most of his solos are pretty boring. Especially the recent ones that usually involves Danny going through another mid-life crisis.
Wait how is Tarzan a white savior?
They kind of already did that.
Exactly. They'll claim that was the reason but it wasn't a good show or even Iron Fist adaptation regardless (felt the same way about Luke Cage as well). Making Iron Fist Asian on the TV would not have changed anything.
White guy in African jungle saving the poor stupid Africans from themselves.
strong male characters are not allowed anymore user.
You ever wonder ho many female gorillas Tarzan fucked before he met Jane?
