Seems like Spider-Man 2 is "going woke" with "diversity, positivity, optimism and progressive thought" 😐

There are cultural street festivals with dancing cooking you can almost smell. Rainbow and Ukrainian flags hang in front of stores. People speak in the languages in which they’re fluent, whether that means English, Spanish, or ASL.

And missions often up the positivity ante. Some of my favourites are ones where there isn’t even any fighting or action, but rather Spidey just doing friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man stuff. Like when he helps a gay kid arrange a series of surprises around campus for his boyfriend.

I’m confused. Should I get angry?

It’d be more bizarre if Spider-Man didn’t encounter these things at all whilst living in modern NYC.

The flags I understand, whatever, but I think I like the more classic style non-politically motivated side missions, you know helping a kid get his balloon back, saving someone from some street thugs, stopping a bank robbery - helping LGBT affiliated individuals with their dates seems a little strange for a superhero.

Supposed to avoid political discourse....

This will be filed away soon.
