White Supremacists hate Thor

Apparently a superhero film has attracted Right-wing outrage...
Yeah.... makes you want to put your head in your hands and groan, doesn't it?

This is the story:
Marvel Comics have a character called Thor, who along with his dad and a few friends are aliens from another dimension who are so advanced that their science looks like magic even to them. Oh and they look just like the Norse pantheon because of contact they may have had with us Earthlings far in the past.
Pretty cool character actually, he was always one of my favourite superheroes as a kid.

Anyway... one of the supporting characters in the new film adaptation is played by a black actor.

Now... I get that Thor is based (very loosely) on Norse mythology but...
This is a comic book.

By way of comparison, Spartans did not look or act like they do in the film 300 - also based on a comic book (oh excuse me... I mean "graphic novel") and they were actually real. Somehow I don't remember the far Right getting in a stew about all that.

Provided Thor himself, and perhaps Odin too, looks like he does in the comic book... I don't give a damn about the rest as look as it all looks cool, and the bad guys get shit beaten out of them.

Anyway... leading the charge against this apparent comic book heresy is a bunch of losers called the Council of Conservative Citizens.

I went and checked them out. This is their "statement of principles", with commentary by me:

"(1) We believe the United States is a Christian country."
Yeah and I believe Natalie Portman looks hot in this new movie.
"(2) We believe the United States is a European country and that Americans are part of the European people."
Great. Just watch the rest of far Right get excited about "European Socialism"
"(3) The United States is a sovereign and independent nation."
Astounding... I actually have to agree with this point. I didn't turn into a Right-wing moron while I was asleep last night, did I?
"(4) The United States is a constitutional republic."
My penis is big.
"(5) We believe in States’ Rights, the Right to Keep and Bear Arms, and the Bill of Rights."
All of which just means you don't like paying taxes and you have a gun fetish.
"(6) The traditional family is the basic unit of human society."
Surprisingly we Lefties love our wives and children too. I know, you don't believe me.
"(7) Private property and free enterprise are the foundations of our economy."
Sorry jerks but.... is this leading anywhere...?
"(8) Cultural, national, and racial integrity."
Ah now we get to it... you hate people who aren't white. Plus a lot who are.
"(9) A Strong National Defense."
You've never done a day's military service in your life have you? (The Council of Conservative Citizens not only oppose gays in the military, but women too)
"(10) America First Foreign Policy."
No foreign aid.
"(11) America First Trade Policy."
Full advantage to be taken of those countries you do not aid.
"(12) Traditional Education under Local Control."
You want to beat your children half to death if they read Harry Potter.
"(13) Strong and Just Law Enforcement."
Because we Lefties like being murdered and having things stolen from us.
"(14) Protection of the Environment and Natural Heritage."
Oh God... if only you meant that.

At time of writing the Council of Conservative Cretins have written 4 articles about Thor.
One is titled "Marvel has a history of publishing extremist "Black Power" comics"...
What? Like Spiderman? Like Captain America? Like the Fantastic Four?
Another is titled "Marvel Declares War on Norse Mythology".
In that fillip of garbage they write "It seems that Marvel Studios believes that white people should have nothing that is unique to themselves."
IT"S AN AMERICAN COMIC !!! NOT HITLER'S FUCKING DINNER PARTY.

You don't want to see this film? FINE
I'd rather see films with intelligent audiences anyway.

One of the characters in Asgard is played by a Japanese actor.... Oops... You didn't spot that in your race-hate rage did you?

Oh and... by the way jerks.... Thor is played by an Australian actor. We can't rely on Julian Assange to annoy you ALL the time

Here's the trailer:

I don't want to make too much about this because the CCofC are clearly stupid people... but it's in these moments that we see the emotional and moral incapacity of the far Right in all its pathetic inglory.
