Larry Hama looks like he's two beers away from unironically posting the Navy Seal Copypasta at this point.

It's not always entirely clear to me which deaths are on Geoff Johns or Dan DiDio. In the case of Infinite Crisis, Danny Boy was pretty set on killing Nightwing in that crossover, but fan outcry prevented that so Conner Kent died in his place. Geoff was not happy about that and it, along with the forced aging of Kid Flash/Bart Allen, was one of the reasons why he left Teen Titans. Many of the characters he kills are obscure as the case is with the "New Bloods" who were characters created during an intracompany crossover that DC abandoned. Let's face it, DC has with a surplus of forgotten characters that are only good for cannon fodder. People are right to be upset that Wally West and Roy Harper are dead because they have enjoyed prominence in the DCU, but no one was really asking for more Commander Steel, Hot Spot, or Lagoon Boy.

FIFY. I don’t know what he’s been told but I seriously think he thinks CG spergs are actual Nazi soldiers.

They aren't? I saw Richard C. Meyer at a meeting for the American Nazi Party, they have pretty good nachos btw, where he was going on about his plans for a whiter America. He wanted to bring back the practice of blanqueamiento and urged followers to impregnate as many women of the "inferior races" as possible in an attempt to "bleach" them alongside "our beautiful white goddesses". I believe he even had a song about "A whiter America is a brighter America" and "our seed must be spread".
Mark Zaid should include this in the court documents.

Wow! How to flush a 40 year celebrated career down the toilet in one easy step. Did watching Siterson flame out teach Larry nothing? His audience is mainly veterans. The people he is attacking here are mainly veterans. The primary poster child for Comicsgate is a well known Veteran.
Idiot!
Oh and for what it’s worth Jon Del Arroz’s book Flying Sparks just showed up on my doorstep today. So that’s the second of the CG creators actually delivering a crowdfunded product in under half a year. How’s the Soy Brigade doing on delivery?

Don't you know that punctuality is a fascist ideal? Hence their obsession with making the trains run on time.

So Brooks has no actual problem with Comicsgate, just War Campaign:
Fucking wut? Can you even point out these literal Nazis and white suprematists? I’m finding way more Latinos than wypipo in the movement lately:

Why do comic spergs like arguing about politics these days instead of power levels and shitty art? Liberal rapists aside, is it insecurity? Wanting to look smarter after realizing they wasted god knows how long on something as insignificant as comics?

The comics themselves use them as a main focus. There's currently X-Men comics about Russian bots on twitter and other similar things that the writers/artists are hooked on. This in turn causes the comic spergs to sperg because they're always complaining. Writers/artists take this as a personal attack and thus this plays out.
"power levels and shitty art" still come up, just the stories don't really do the action/adventure thing much anymore so it'd be like talking about "Who's the strongest person on The View?". Shitty art is a common thing being mocked like that one Iron Heart cover where she looks like ET.

Comics nerds have always bitched and complained about everything since the inception of comics and anyone who read the letters pages of comics back when they were actually good knows this. It's just the latest batch of sensitive fucking pussies who can't take any criticism who are so assblasted about this they want to pretend that it's literally the Holocaust again. They should fucking kill themselves.

It's X-Men: Red. Cassandra Nova (Xavier's sister) is trying to get people to hate the X-Men and one of the plots involved nanomachines that make people hate mutants.
The arc was called The Hate Machine and took up most of the 11 issue run.

The best part is probably the end where they use Magneto helmets to "block out the hate". Subtle. Is this what Marvel employees actually believe?

The early Siegel/Shuster Superman stories did present the Man of Steel as a social crusader before his popularity took off and the editor (the name escapes) told them to cut it out. As for X-Men in the 60s, I don't know if it was a perfect metaphor for the civil rights movement as many of those stories read like the standard action/adventure tales of the time with some prejudice thrown in. As for Luke Cage, the character was clearly created to capitalize on the Blaxploitation craze as Iron Fist and Shang-Chi were created as a reaction to the martial arts craze of the 70s.
His assumption is that comic books have always been didactical in nature. No, they weren't. They are a form of entertainment and people generally resent their entertainment being used as a soundboard for the entertainer's personal politics because it is--frankly--patronizing.
Also worth noting: the Denny O'Neill/Neal Adams run on Green Lantern/Green Arrow received accolades for its "cultural relevance" because it dealt with real world issues like racism and drug use. What the "comics media" won't tell you is that it sold poorly with the title cancel and the stories shifted to backups in the Flash title. Being "woke" in the 60s and 70s didn't sell and it sure as hell doesn't fifty years later.
Here's a little sample of GL/GA:
Gee, maybe it has to do with the fact he has a whole sector to patrol? Check your Terran privilege, shitlord!
