To a much lesser extent, she also came and and said that she wants people to donate tickets for ''underprivileged'' girls to go and see the film. Which 1) Annoyed people because, y'know, there are ''underprivileged'' boys that can't see the film either
Annoyed "people"? Either source these people or admit you are the one who is annoyed, coward.
1) Can the potty mouth. It says more about your mentality than it does about mine, son.
2) Go onto Youtube and find one of the many high level creators that are talking about it and have comment sections full of agreeing voices. I'll give you one to start your journey with: ComicArtistProSecrets. 107 K subs. You're welcome.

Yeah I've seen that corner of YouTube. I also don't care what those babies think. And yes I think them babies if they're getting upset at that. Again I ask you: Black Panther? Were you up in arms then too?

It's not merit based.
