Coming out of the gate to say that I was completely right to be skeptical about X-Men United from the moment the solicit dropped. I really liked Exceptional X-Men, but, damn.

As someone who hates the Snyderverse for various reasons, including Snyder's fundamental misunderstanding of Superman, this take isn't it. Gunn blatantly reframed Superman's immigrant background to give him daddy issues (a common theme in his comic book works) and make Krypton irredeemably evil 🧵

someone just tried to tell me Gunn's Superman was about denying his heritage to assimilate as an American and framed it as a criticism of the movie, and it's making me feel crazy. His heritage was genocide, brother.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

please retire the phrase "i wish i had time to be depressed" 1) nobody has time to be depressed 2) depression doesn't care if you're busy 3) willing yourself to force through symptoms bc you have stuff to do is only effective for mild-medium depression, not severe 4) it's a shitty thing to say
