Starship Troopers is an excellent example. It's disappointing to see Marvel has caved in to this annoying trend which to me doesn't promote genuine diversity or empowerment at all. I think sadly they caved in to pressure from certain groups which are the result of the terrible political situation right now. Thing is I read the scene almost wasn't included in the final cut but the filmmakers opted to anyway, which was a terrible mistake as they should've absolutely excised it.

They shouldn't have included the scene. It was BEYOND CRINGE-WORTHY, INSULTING, and SEXIST. They shouldn't kowtow to these feminazis and social justice assholes.  And to think, a cult film like Starship Troopers does an excellent job of showing genuine diversity and teamwork between both genders than a blockbuster superhero ensemble film like Avengers: Endgame. SMH. |

Thing that's unfortunate is that Marvel early on was all about legit diversity without even aiming for that, and now they've undid that, which is really unfortunate.

Marvel likely just unfortunately caved into political pressure to put stupid things like that scene in there. I hate it when the politics of the moment affects entertainment.

Sadly that scene is probably just the tip of the iceberg for more of this sort of thing to be in the MCU for future films.

Sad to see the MCU is likely to be ruined by it, moreso since it goes against the very positive messages they were initially all about :/

Yeah. Just thinking about it makes me sad because all of that positivity and a decade of good storytelling is being thrown out into the trash in favor of poisonous ideologies and propaganda. SMH.

I see the MCU sadly losing a lot of fans as a result of this too, and all in the name of caving in to such a stupid trend.

The MCU would've still been okay if they didn't force things like forced diversity, Feminism, and identity politics into their films. And pushing a HORRIBLE character like Captain Marvel as the face of Marvel going forward only made things MUCH WORSE. |

It isn't just the MCU suffering from this either, it's affecting other film series. The newest Terminator (which I saw, found it meh) is another unfortunate example.

Sad thing is the new Terminator has now cheapened the first two movies and rendered them moot with the stupid decision that was made in this newest film and all in the name of hopping aboard the train for this stupid trend, which does anything but promote equal representation.
