I have nothing against this casting , I just don't understand it.

I'd actually understand one if one of the warriors three was black or lady sif but Valkyrie is more of an icon in norse mythology.

Can anyone help explain ?

The gods in the MCU are just human looking aliens that the Norse took for gods.
Because the Norse are white they projected their whiteness onto the gods, sort of like how white people depict Jesus as white and blacks depict him as black even though he was neither.

"Icon in Norse Mythology"

That's where you fuckes up, anon. Never mind that this isn't based on "Norse Mythology" as much as based on a comic, loosely based on Norse Mythology... But MCU Asguardians are aliens.

There is no need to be progressive with a thing based on myth, and it's actually kind of insulting to the culture it's from to use it as another staging ground for this mad war over diversity. Aren't unique cultural heritages exactly the kind of thing we're trying to protect with this inclusion business? It all seems ass backwards to me.
>Melanin differences are due to living environments and climates
Why would an alien world not have this, especially one clearly capable of producing extremely earth like species?

Isn't the whole point of the Valkyries that their are multiple of them in Norse mythology. It's not all one chick. If you're really using mythology as the argument then there's no reason one random Valkyrie couldn't be black.

If they were actually meant to be more heavily based on the original Norse Gods then it'd be a bit more farfetched but it's clear they've always taken some liberties.

Also the ancient & medieval world wasn't this monolithic ethnically pure thing like some people think it was. The indigenous people of Scandanvia are the Saami who looked a lot less white back then than they do now.

When you take a white character and cast a minority actor it's super deep and progressive. It's only just a character and you need to get over yourself you racist asshole.

When you take a minority character and cast a white actor, it's called white washing and it's super racist and horrible. It's more than just a character, and how dare you cast a white actor you racist asshole.

But it does matter. If someone is casted for a movie because he is non white and they need someone non white, then this means that for your job a firm may do the same. And unless your a trained ballet dancer, that can be a problem. Now in my country we don't have blacks, but we have ukrainians. Imagine not getting a dorm room, because it auto goes to them.And then finding out that the city and the state give them a special fund just for being from ukrain, while you have to slave to get a high grade avarge, only for them to get it too, because they get good grades for showing up."because it would be racist to give them bad grades". But what realy ticks you off, is when you go in to an oral exam and the fucker from ukrain gets a passing grade, while not anwsering a single question, other then "no I do not speak any language other then russian".

actually marvel stuff esp. the netflix has a pretty big problem with asian actors/characters. look at daredevil.

it does piss me off that diversity seems to mean "woman + a black guy". even star wars did this, though they had the decently to add a hispanic dude too.

like, what about having arab/muslim characters that aren't terrorists, actual LGBT characters in 20 fucking 16, Romani characters that aren't caricatures or whitewashed(*cough* Thanks Whedon), black women being proper full on superheroes, etc. etc.

> I don't know how niggers don't feel offended by being shoehorned on everything just for pity and not receiving a right treatment by Marvel.

The funny thing is there were some white nationalist who were trying to push this angle around the time the first Thor movie came out with Black Hemidall. That same opinion comes up in every thread about this kind of thing really, "why don't these poor niggers feel offended by this thing that pisses me off? Clearly I'm only shitting on this for their sake." It's like some kind of anti-SJW.

To be honest I just don't understand why I should give a fuck. Some black chick is going to play a comic book character, good on her. At least she's getting paid. It's not like she's joining a minstrel show. Marvel has been pretty decent with the black characters they've had so far. Black Panther is on the way and Luke Cage is right around the corner so it's not like they aren't doing any black focused shows or movies either.

I understand fans of Valkyrie getting pissed for the change because they're nerds and all nerds change in to screeching rage monkeys the moment you touch the thing they like, myself included. But let's be real, even among comic book fans, how many people actually give a shit about Valkyrie?

the flaw in this shitty logic is that it assumes that the reason why minorities DON'T get roles, jobs opportunities etc. is because they're somehow inherently inferior, and not because of institutionalised racism or other issues.

it's like the minority scholarships myth which exists in the US - yes there is such a thing, obviously, but even adjusting for grades(Which are a problem largely because schools are funded by local taxes, etc. etc.) they still get less scholarships overall.

>>84902469
>wonder woman
>played by a twiglet with a pretty face

>>84901988

Because the problem isn't solely with altering the race of a character(though there are positives and negatives to this), it's about the lack of roles for non-white actors, lack of role models for non-white kids, etc.

The media reinforces people's view of the world, even through obvious fiction, and even if that wasn't the case, a lot of detractors like to say "fuck off with your SJW shit in my escapism", which unwittingly brings us to the other big problem here - escapism. The people who need escapism the most are generally those who put up with more shit IRL.

Yes, people can relate to characters different to themselves(and should) but this is a red herring, because the subtext to this is that ONLY non-white, LGBT etc. people should have to do this. Nobody should have to do it constantly.

It's a false equivalence in general, anyway. White people and black people aren't comparable groups. The whole concept of "White" people was something invented in the late 1600s to make poor european immigrants have a false sense of superiority(to placate them) and justify chattel slavery/colonialism(not SJW shit, this is historically well documented). As a result of that the concept of "Black", "Brown" etc. people were also existed, in the context of being slaves, the colonised and what have you. White and black aren't two tribes, rather socioethnic phenomenons.

So you really can't just flip the script and act like it's the same thing, because the context is completely different. A lot of people like to tell blacks to just "get over" history but it's not like white americans do that either, esp. with their obsession with founding fathers and the constitution. I'm not going to debunk /pol/ memes that'll act like black people deserved or aren't actually treated all that badly, but the base logic here is that you can't automatically make everything be comparable, it's bad logic, and there's such a thing as punch up vs. punch down.

There's such a thing as "white" hispanic which is people descended from mostly white settlers(as oppose to Mestizo for example), or actually from Spain. Thing is white is such a nebulous definition - even if at one point the Spaniards were assholes colonists, the fact that they have slightly darker skin and speak the same language as the people they colonised ironically fucked them over as their whiteness is generally considered somewhat nebulous nowadays.

Actual Latinx people are non-white by definition, I think.

There's no such thing as punch up vs. punch down because power isn't that easily divided. Anti-racism has a tremendous amount of power in our society, it's like the state religion of elites. Anti-racism has much more power in our society today, right now, than racism, which is why talk has shifted to "systemic" racism, because all the obvious visible power is with anti-racism.

That doesn't mean anti-racism is wrong, it just means it's right or wrong on its own merits, not based on punching up or down. Being anti-racist is punching down on marginalized groups, and that's OK, because some marginalized groups deserve to be punched.
>>
>>84900457
That's wrong though.

There're two possible origins:
1. Asgardians look like Norse Gods because they copied the image from Norses back then. So no blacks.
2. Norse Gods look like Asgardians because Norses back then thought Asgardians were gods and they came up with their mythology from them. So also no blacks.

To have a black Asgardian you need a black Norse God, and there aren't black Norse Gods.

There's actually some comics justification for this. In the comics, Valkyrie was not a real person, she was first someone the Enchantress disguised herself as, and then a personality the Enchantress magically gave to a couple of mortals.

Not that her origin will be the same in the movie, but she could theoretically have been anybody, of any race.

A lot of this is just part of pressure to scare producers into casting more of [whatever].

So demanding more characters become nonwhite, and campaigning against any cross-racial casting in the other direction, all makes sense from the point of view of organizations that are just lobbying to make it easier for their group to get hired.

It's all completely arbitrary of course - and often based on fake categories like "Asian" and "Latino" - but it works as a lobbying strategy.

Aliens aren't secluded to Asgard. There's a fucking chink running around the first 2 movies, that we learn hails from Vanaheim. Different environment & climate. Between the hypergalactic fight club and the "native American warpaint" I was under the impression that Valkyrie wasn't necessarily from Asgard.
And even if that weren't the pre-established case: Stupid and illogical? Comic books?! YOU DON'T FUCKING SAY!

I really love the Enchantress/Valkyrie issue. It's making fun of feminism but I've known feminists who love it un-ironically because everything "Valkyrie" says about the way the Avengers women were treated in the '60s is true.

Subtle, no, but at least it has something to appeal to everyone, unlike today's social-issue comics that often try to play one side off against the other.

I remember the whole kerfuffle with Frozen, where the Tumblr types tried to argue that the Sami were being whitewashed.

It's perfectly OK to not give a fuck. But there's a big gropu aren't /pol/ who would dislike this.

Consider the continuityfags. Even if they aren't fanboys of the character, they like shit in the movies to be like the comics, as much as possible. In particular if the character is long established, and has a distinctive look.

Like the continuityfags will also be against race swapping the Master in Dr Strange to be a weird looking white woman, although he's a much more minor character than Hemidal or Valkarie.

Quite a bit of this is because of a long history of the movie people shitting up everything by making arbitrary changes.

Continuityfags tend to care more about the tone of the story and the general look of the character than the specific race.

>>84906339
Pretty much. Slightly mongoloid, in the phenotypical sense, like the eskimos

>>84906008
Nick Fury's Howling commandos was a mixed race unit, with Gabe Jones and GW bridge, in the comics, and they actually had a japanese guy, I think he was called the San Francisco Kid that showed up for a few stories.

Valkyrie doesn't exist in Norse mythology.
