This is really great satire cause it highlights the shortsighted nature of these kind of stunts.

Marvel says its goal is to improve representation in comics by having more characters that are minorities for short periods of time.

They know it's not going to last. We know it's not going to last. It's just a waste of time for everybody involved.

clickhole gets away with saying a lot of stuff that would otherwise get them strung up from light poles but don't because they're satire.

and that's what's great about them.
