DC "Muslim" hero named ISIS

>Adapt Isis
>Make her nothing like Isis and yet another hacker character
Jesus Christ, why does Guggenheim still get work? And why does he think hacking is somehow a superpower?

Isis got a rough deal and I cant remember the last time she was in comics. Really I dont think anyone should fucking care about the shared name because again, its an Egyptian goddess. Its like when Archer had to drop the name. Furthermore, WHAT THE FUCK IS IT WITH CW AND FUCKING COMPUTER HACKERS!?!?! We can get fun magic shit? I dont expect Black Adam to show up but christ.

Anon, Isis is an already existing character. She's not named after an Egyptian Goddess. She /literally/ gets her powers from her. Someone who's power comes from Egyptian mythology is a fucking Musslim.

>She was talking about how difficult it is to be a Muslim-American in the current political climate," said Guggenheim. "Having a character who’s a computer hacker and is from the future but also happens to be Muslim, it’s a nice, important aspect of her character.”

Woah, virtue signalling.

to be fair they tried so hard to change the name ISIS for that group to ISS because its a common name as common as george in the 70's, or rather, a "jose mexican" over there

I don't think there's anything sinister behind this. At the same time, I feel this was poorly thought-out.

I watched a bit of last season and the plot was literally the lance of Longinus was the most powerful thing in existence that could rewrite reality.

You're putting a Muslim on a show where everyone else witnessed Jesus's blood being divinity itself and you think that's pro Muslim? It just makes them look like retards. Yeah I know Jesus is in Islam but he's not divine in that faith.

Also the show is trash and characters just take it in turns to be retarded and not use their abilities so that drama can occur.

like literally how are there people who haven't read 52 yet

>>94394755
Its ridiculous really. Everyone is so fucking sensitive these days and people are terrified of being connected to a shit terrorist organization because the assholes used a name from myth. Like what if another sect came out tomorrow called THOR, would Marvel Comics suddenly drop EVERYTHING because they share a name? By avoiding the name, you're also giving power to terrorists because they control what it means

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isis_(DC_Comics)

1. Isis was a superhero in DC comics since 1975, WAY before the terror group Isis existed.

2. Isis is an ancient Egyptian goddess, and the superhero was named after her.

DC did nothing wrong.

>>94394641

So....you're saying a GODDESS from ancient Egypt is...a Muslim?

Anon....really?

So can we start a twitter shitstorm regarding making an Egyptian character Muslim?

>>94395037
>person that lives in modern-day Egypt
>not a muslim
???

>>94394954
I feel like this is something people really need to address.
We need to start calling out comic companies on their lazy diversity; the more it's called out as blatantly lazy/racist, the less it'll happen.

Like, Kamala is fine. They actually worked her faith into her character. But I feel like when they say there's gonna be a new *insert minority here* character, the question should come up; how will this affect their character?

How is being muslim going to affect Isis as a person? Is she practicing? Will it come up as a plot point? Or is she just a brown lady with a bunch of generic desert-y shit and rugs from Pier 1 in her house?

It'd be like if they were like "oh yeah, we're introducing a Jewish hero", except his faith never came up in any impactful way, but when he goes home you'd see his hooknosed mother counting a big pile of gold in the corner. Like, that's the level of lazy surface-level shit we're on.

>>94395044
Only if you want to look stupid. She's not an Egyptian character. She's from a fictional DCU country and merely channels the powers of an Egyptian god similar to how Billy gets powers from several gods.

>>94395067
Kandaq is so Egyptian adjacent anyway it hardly makes a difference

>>94394755
We really should have adopted the ISIL name. Even if it would have taken a few seconds to explain what the Levant is.

Oh.
That just makes this even more retarded.

Why would should ever be Muslim when a literal Egyptian Goddess is fueling her powers?
The Muslim faith pretty much says she isn't allowed to believe in the very goddess giving her magic juice.

If I were Isis I'd cut that little bitch loose and tell her to go get her magic from Allah if he's so damn great.

It's like Jesus Christ coming down from on high, telling you "My Child, do not trust The Jew. Here is the blade of Archangel Michael. Use it to smite the forces of evil in the name of God our father.", and then immediately going out and converting to Judaism.

>>94395103
Shes Isis in name only. CW doesnt fucking care, they saw a brown chick they could use and made her Muslim for diversity points. Combine that with her being another hacker because CW literally cant do anything else except hack shit half the time. But I guess its ironically fitting, CW verse hacking practically is magic

>>94395337
She was in a series written by Johns and Morrison, if you don't know her you are casual as fuck.

>>94395319
Isis is a character created back in 1975 who had a TV show. She came into the comics years ago, and was part of a long story that lasted an entire year called 52.

The CW TV show "Legends of Tomorrow" is adding her to the cast.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdBRLV6PGro

>>94395319
The point is you didnt read shit. Isis was already a character BEFORE the terrorist organization existed. All CW did was take her and make her a muslim hacker for some stupid reason

>>94395114

Isis is a heathen god in the faith of Islam.

>>94394514

I don't really see a problem aside from the fact that Daesh has taken the name and it has some negative connotations.

>>94395002
The only problem I see with the character so far is whether or not she is written well they've already slapped an expectation on her by linking her addition to the show with Trump.

The hacker part is tired but the rest could be a fine character if they didn't make a big deal out of it.

>>94395452
>mainly the people wondering how she can be named Isis and not understanding her relationship with the goddess is the same as the Marvel family and their gods

They are wondering how she can be named ISIS in today's world. I imagine thats a moot point though, as they won't use the name in the show. At any rate, not an indication that they don't know its an existing character.

>And not understanding her relationship with the goddess is the same as the Marvel family and their gods
For the average American 'Christian' this shit barely matters. For a Muslim who will have her religion as an 'important' part of her character, drawing her superpowers from a goddess is a much bigger deal, and the kind of thing people would be put to death for in Muslim countries.

I just think a name change could be beneficial here. Everybody and everyone is just going to think of ISIS because of this, and a name change would solve a lot of headaches.

>>94395337

Technically Guido Fawkes was just a mercenary that Robert Catesby brought in because they were all minor nobles and didn't know how to blow shit up good.

Also religion and political allegiance were pretty tied together so it wasn't a pure theological or even ideological rebellion.

Couple factors. Foremost is probably that western readership is generally intimidated by the appearance of young men from predominantly Muslim countries. Young women from the same countries, on the other hand, engender less suspicion and distrust. There's also the case of legibility: Muslim men are less easily identified as Muslim than a Muslim woman, whose dress typically makes her religion immediately apparent.

>>94396970
I miss Arabian Knight. I remember ages ago reading one of those Marvel comics with six stories in them and one of them was about the original Arabian Knight, and i remember it ended with him returning home and getting nagged by his three wives, looking to the reader and saying "Hey, i may be a hero, but i'm still a husband."

Right. There's different levels of muslimfaggotry.
It's one thing to work on a big two comic, it would be something else to work on Dr Strange, New Gods, or Ghost Rider, or Satana, or Preacher. And then it would be even further to have Mohammed show up, or have muslims engaing in witchcraft.

I mean that Ardian Syaf dude got quite a bit of flack from other muslims for doing a comic with Storm on it, and working for permulter because he's jewish, and he's actually fairly moderate for a muslim.

I mean, imagine, in the golden age, some comic writer saying

>>"We want to fight anti irish cathloic discrimination, so the next Ghost Rider will be irish catholic prohibition cop Shamus McGillicutty, who gets posessed by the Demon Baezelbub and fights moonshiners and bootleggers in the ozarks, with the ancient celtic Sword of Slaine. We will be having special pagan sacrifice covers as well.

>generalizing
Generalising is a useful tool which is applied to every single thing apart from humans without issue as a result of pattern recognition being basically what makes us an intelligent species.

Generalisation is also applied to humans in multiple industries such as advertising, or across multiple metrics such as gender, height, attractiveness, etc.

Generalisation is, however, bad in this one very specific instance when applied to humans and in regards to race because (???)

People who think generalisation is bad when talking about populations are fucking brainwashed.

The same goes for Judaism and Christianity, so I guetss that means no Jews or Christians in comics anymore.
>also atheists and agnostics

It's entirely possible she's considers herself a Muslim, but is not a fundamentalist and is a relatively relaxed about how she practices her religion. She could even drink alcohol and eat pork. Or she starts as a devout Muslim but then has her powers and starts to think about shit differently but doesn't renounce her faith, just has new perspective on it. It could go numerous different ways.

I can't believe there's so much Assblast from a CW show.

>>94397363
100% truth. Name one thing on this earth that does not benefit from generalisation? Bearing in mind that generalisation is applying statistical trends of a population to smaller subsets of that population. AKA is you're looking for a bug that hides in Fir trees 150% of the time it hides in Pine trees on average overall, there would, given a wide enough range of subsets, contain an instance where you are more likely to find the bug in a Pine tree, but it's still stupid to look in the Pine trees before the Fir OR to look non-discriminately, because from the information available, you know you're much more likely to find what you're looking for in the Fir. However people who complain about generalisation look at that statistical data and say "We shouldn't prioritise Fir trees, we should search trees non-discriminatory, look at this time when the result wasn't what the trend would indicate it would be. Applied to humans, this would be like if I had to choose between a Japanese american or a negro american (knowing nothing else about these people and without the means to obtain more information) to do something maths based. Only a brainwashed idiot wouldn't prioritise Japman in the selection.

And about the IQ thing, that ain't bullshit either. Also, the word is spouting.

>What if?

What if the bug is in the Pine tree more than the Fir Tree?
Think of it in investment terms because that makes it simpler. Going by SAT scores, the odds of Japman being better at maths than Blackman are high. This doesn't mean El Jappo will be better than El Toro Negro in 100% of cases, it simply means that he's got a much higher chance of being the better choice.

Now, you understand in this investment, lets say you're investing 1000 moneys into either Japson or Negglo. The payout is 2000 if you pick the correct choice (In this case, the better mathematician.
Japlor has a 5/6 chance of being the better mathematician.
Jessica Negro has a 1/6 chance of being the better mathematician

Who do you put your money on? Yes the 1/6 chance WILL crop up sometimes, but seeing as the payout is the same, it's a needless risk to choose the 1/6 option over the 5/6 option.
This is what generalisation is. A purely logical, pattern based metric aiming to maximise your payout (doesn't have to be money, could be anything you desire). You don't have all the information so you can't make the best decision 100% of the time, but no investment ever became rich by just putting each option as a 50/50 and randomly choosing between them, and that's what you idiots champion. The absolute definition of anti-intellectualism.

Is the show any good? I know it has my boy Firestorm in it and apparently B'wana Beast is appearing soon so that's gotten me interested, is it worth catching up on?

Actually I think I'd prioritize knowledge of math.

To torture the tree selection analogy, it's like judging the quality of apple tree by the color of it's bark instead of the apples it produces. I'm sure you can probably compare the shade of a tree's bark to the size and color of the fruit it produces and find that trees of a particular hue are generally more productive than other hues. Or you could just look at the fucking apples and make your judgement based on that.

Wew lad. I'm not jumping from place to place, you're jumping over my words.

It is better to make a judgement call in the direction backed by physical evidence than blind ideology.

>>94397785
>Or you could just look at the fucking apples and make your judgement based on that.
Are you going to closely inspect every single apple out of an orchard now.
Because as I said this is for dealing with POPULATIONS, huge amounts of people, the analogies are because you seem to have some mental block with using simple probability in this one specific scenario because you've been told not to, not because it makes sense. And bear in mind "looking at the apples", depending on the scenario, can have real consequences in all sorts of scenarios.

>>94397904
They literally are. Have you heard them ackbar any god but Allah?

>>94397785
I'll go through with your analogy.
You are to harvest 2 million apples in your bigman orchard. Time is a factor, your workforce is limited. Random Sample Testing (another widely used example of generalising which is used to maximise profits by the way) has shown that say, the trees with the light green bark have 1/40 rotten apples. Trees with a medium grey bark have 1/200 rotten apples. Quality is a concern here for your reputation. Suddenly you find, the tree bark is actually a pretty useful judge because there's no way you can look at 2 million fucking apples especially when some of the rot could be inside.

In fact the whole concept of random sample testing defeats your argument. If you could "just look at the fucking apples" so easily, random sample testing would have no place in industry.

If you prioritise anything anon, it is definitely not knowledge of math, because your stance makes no mathematical sense.

Yes, I hire people whose job it is to screen apples after they've been picked and before they're packed and shipped to ensure the quality of my product. Because that's LITERALLY the entire point of growing apples: to produce a good apple.

For fuck's sake, you yourself brought up SAT scores. If you have access to that information than why the fuck would you even bother including race in your selection process? Just look at the math score, dumbass.

It makes no sense for a muslim to take the name of a pagan, evil entity. It's worse than making a pig themed muslim hero.

I literally just told you this. Do you even know the concept of random sample testing and why it is used and what it entails? Because checking every product is simply not feasible in industry, it's a technique used which is basically applied generalisation (If 10% of products of the randomly selected sample of this batch are faulty, we assume 10% of the products we know NOTHING about are faulty), and this actually cannot be argues. Maybe it is feasible for apples, but that's just an analogy for goods.
Why are you so willing to fight for a position that makes no logical sense that you would take a stance that makes no logical sense in an analagous setting?

You have (and you do, by the way) access to the average SAT scores by race. Not individual. This is in the analogy to show that stereotyping has a scientific and statistical backing.

Except it isn't because what you're suggesting is that I throw away an entire fucking harvest because 1 in 40 apples is rotten. That knowledge will be useful in planning next harvest, but not now when I still have 39/40 good apples. Which is what I'm looking for.

Well why the fuck not? Is the applicant not willing to submit his Math SAT score for this position where such a score is apparently integral to the selection process? This isn't a matter of generalization not being useful, it's about your chosen generalizations not making sense for your analogy.

>>94398290
The fag community managed to do some mental gymnastics to flip the word around into something they see as positive. To them it means "not really sure if gay, straight or bi" and yet in circumstances like that twitter video, they default to "queer" even though it's clearly a lesbian relationship.

>Except it isn't because what you're suggesting is that I throw away an entire fucking harvest because 1 in 40 apples is rotten
I did not say that was the only option. I simply said you should GENERALISE, distinguish between the apples which have a much higher chance to be faulty goods and those that don't. Maybe you only screen the apples from the green bark trees, whereas the reputation/replacement loss suffered from the less than 1/200 resulting faulty product, is less valuable than the labour required in sifting through the lets say 1.9 million apples that come from the 1/200 faulty rate trees.


And again, you are not arguing about hypotheticals here, we have many, many many real world examples to choose from. You are arguing against the system CURRENTLY used by multiple industries, including industries such as pharmaceuticals where quality control is strictly regulated, AND bearing in mind that industry is where maximising profit is priority. If random sample testing didn't maximise profits in multiple industries, it wouldn't be so widely used. The reputation lost from the odd faulty product going through is outweighed by the money saved by not having to test every single product, hence generalising helped them maximise their value.
You're assuming infinite resources and your company would quickly go bankrupt because you're investing more into the goods than they are worth. Checking 2 million individual apples takes a LOT of time, and apples don't sell for THAT much. Your position is so illogical that you are literally arguing against universally accepted economic theory.

There are never characters with just one specialty in Legends. Even gimmick characters like Snart and Mick had more skills than simply cold and heat guns. Or they later developed new skills along the way.

This Muslim chick might start off as a simple hacker from the future, but she WILL get powers later on. I'm sure of it. Also count on her being gay with White Canary.

>Maybe you only screen the apples from the green bark trees

I already planned to screen the entire harvest, screening only apples from one type of tree is absurd, as is your implication that 1/200 failure rate is an acceptable scenario. Whether the apples come from rot prone trees or not has no bearing on the screening process or the acceptable failure rate. Workers are expected to look over each apple. They are not expected to be fishing out bad apples to a degree that small increase in physical sorting will significantly affect output. As such presorting apples according to bark color is itself a waste of resources.

Once again, this isn't a matter of generalization being a useful or even necessary quality of human organization. It's a matter of using generalities when there is no need, or even to your own detriment.

>>94398692
But as I mentioned, bad apples are not always visible.

How are you going to get your workers to check each apple when they have to destroy each product to properly check it?

>>94398552
Of course I can make assumptions, but if the race of either person actually mattered to me for whatever reason in this one particular scenario, I would strive to actually validate my assumptions and not simply accept my assumption as fact.

>>94398773
If the bad apples can't be detected via screening without destroying the apple, then extra screening for the failure prone trees is pointless. You are once again asking me to discard an entire harvest, but now based entirely on the presence of an even smaller selection of apples that can't be sorted for. Fuck that. It's going to market. If the lighter shade tree bark apples are such a significant part of my crop, I can't afford to throw it all away. If it's not, then dilution in the stock of other apples will render the increase of rotted apples fairly insignificant.

>>94398782
Yes it's always best to validate your assumptions. That's completely besides the point though and assuming a perfect world without limitations, and EVEN then you still generalise with people because people are so complex you can't get 100% of the information on them.
And not only does it not make sense from a resources standpoint, some things either literally cannot or should not be validated. Maybe you assume Tyrone's offer of weed is roguery and he's actually going to bring you back to his bros and rob you, have fun validating that one m80.

You should not simply accept your assumption as fact, but you should always go for the "best bet" on the information you HAVE. If you get more information, update that, and I'm not saying you shouldn't seek out that information, I'm saying that sometimes seeking out that information is worth less than the value of the information you get, and as already shown, economics and basic logic in general agree with me.

Snyder ruined the best Superman to appear on screen, never even gave Batfleck a chance to spread his leathery wings and fly and left the franchise wide open for Wonder Woman to become the cash cow capstone. Get used to thinly veiled-to-outright deliberate jabs at "the patriarchy."

Persona 5 has you able to create the Goddess ISIS and nobody blew up about it

>>94398957
>You are once again asking me to discard an entire harvest
I said not always visible. So you will still have a rate if you don't screen them all, which decreases the value of screening because the cost remains the same whereas you still may get a significant and like I mentioned plenty of times, you are brushing past the cost of screening 2 million apples.

Also a 1/200 faulty product rate isn't fucking reason to discard an entire crop it's well within the acceptable range.

A common misconception, other gods are mentioned as being real in the Bible, but YHWH is the only creator deity; any other god who claims to be the true creator is lying, and actively worshiping any other god is punished by damnation.
