That type of insulting delusion is being portrayed not just in Star Wars but in every movie, TV show and ad. It’s been a purposeful campaign for decades now to portray white heterosexual males as incompetent buffoons while members of all the grievance identity groups are the courageous and smart heroes. It’s insulting, flies in the face of reality and I refuse to watch the garbage.

Yesterday I saw for the first time, a brief bit of a commercial for the new "Antman and Wasp" movie. I said out loud, "I know who Antman is, but who the h3ll is Wasp?" I've never heard of "Wasp."

Nobody knew. I said: "I'll bet "Wasp" is either going to be black or Female. I know nothing of this character "Wasp", but I am going to predict right here and now that this "superhero" will either be black or female."

My wife started looking up the cast. She then informed me that "Wasp is played by Evangeline Lilly."

Exactly what I expected. Having a white guy superhero suddenly joined by another white guy superhero would have illustrated a lack of diversity, so I would have been shocked if they had picked anyone except someone black or female.
