You can change every costume to black and people will watch your movies, but change one person's skin color and it's the end of the world.

Early 00s X Men maybe starting with their depiction in the Fox films had generic leather costumes unlike their classic yellow motif
Fans disliked this but the basic viewer didn't know squat about comics (as continues to the current year) and so generally accepted the generic leather costume concept

That I knew a long time ago as a meta joke but I was confused by the 2nd thing like there was a comic series that reverse raced all the X-Men or something.

Sunspot had his skin color changed in New Mutants and lots of people use it as reason to boycott the movie >_>

I'm saying costumes change all the time and generally little babies don't bawl their eyes out, but even consider changing a superhero's race and people start screaming about boycotts and the destruction of the character.

Shouldn't Spider-Man wearing green or white be more outrageous than race swapping anyone?

I kinda want them to race swap every character imaginable just to watch nerd and racists squirm.

So hockey, how do you reconcile making a topic like this with the fact that you're constantly whinging about how society is on the verge of collapse? Do you think maybe intentionally trying to sow racial discord goes against your narrative that you're just so full of empathy that you can't help but be angry all the time?

Society is definitely collapsing if a superhero having a different skin color sows racial discord. It's just a color and it's completely irrelevant to the character of most of them.

I'm a real person. I don't think we should race swap George Washington. I guess skin color actually means very little to my identity, but the perception by others would likely change, which might make me value it more.

For me it's that I am really anal about costumes in comic book movies. I always want them to look just like the comics. Original xmen trilogy is probably the worst offender in that regard

I'm assuming you also have zero issues when minority characters get "whitewashed".

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

not realy. it was realy dumb. like in this universe there is no yellow spandex costume. so 4 him 2 say that with no context was nothing more than a huge wink 2 the camera. why wood yellow spandex be his default option outside of leather? the joke was just super cheesy and only worked back then becuz comic book movies were a new thing
