Are any of the other MCU movies heavily political?

Is Captain Marvel presently the only MCU film that's so very political though?

Did you miss Winter Soldier?

Define the politics.
If the girlpower is politics to you then yes, it is.
If BLM is politics to you then it would be a Black Panther
If it's all above plus "we need to depart all the mutants and to build a wall" then wait for mutants

Spider-Man Homecoming.

As much as I kinda like this move there's some political nonsense in it.

But namely
MJ at the Washington monument say something to the effect of "I won't go in there because it was built by slaves.

and

There's a scene where the shocker appears only to be killed by vulture and have his weapon given to a black guy "Now your the shocker" Though I may be reading into that one too much.

Feminism is a political movement, chief. :P

It pretty much was. Then we gave them voting rights and now it's more of a subculture.

>MJ at the Washington monument say something to the effect of "I won't go in there because it was built by slaves.

Interestingly, the movie handles that very accurately to the history (We've got zero clue if it was or not, due to lost records though based on the time period it was started it wouldn't be unlikely). Teacher says it wasn't, security guard shrugs when asked. The guy working there was right, we're not sure.

Security guard didn't shrug. He made the 50/50 hand gesture, which is still pretty fucking disingenuous.

Slaves didn't fucking build the Washington monument. I live within sight of it and have toured it multiple times. Slaves might have helped pull rocks from the quarry that later become the stone for it, but no slaves were carefully slotting that shit into the sides to make a monolith. This isn't the fucking Pyramids at Giza here.

>“I can’t say for certain, but the stonemasonry was pretty highly skilled, so it’s unlikely that slaves would’ve been doing it. The stones were cut by stonecutters, which is highly skilled work; and the stones were hoisted by means of steam engines, so you’d need a skilled engineer and foreman for stuff like that. Tending the steam engine, building the cast-iron staircase inside — that wasn’t grunt work.”

>Slaves might have helped pull rocks from the quarry that later become the stone for it

I think that would count as being involved in building it.

Just like socialism. It used to be a political movement, then eastern european workers showed everyone what happens to capitalist when his eployees overwork and get underpayed way too much. It wasn't pretty and suddenly workers around the globe start to work in much better conditions. Nowadays being socialist is the same as being feminist or goth. The goal is pretty much achieved

>I think that would count as being involved in building it.
In the same way cow shit grows roses, sure.

Slaves didn't build that either

There is a lot of historians debating about it. I'm not saying that it was or wasn't, I'm saying we don't know for sure so the 'Could be either way' gesture was accurate.

>According to historian Jesse Holland, it is very likely that African-American slaves were among the construction workers, given that slavery prevailed in Washington and its surrounding states at that time, and slaves were commonly used in public and private construction.

Literally the line straight after your quote in the wikipedia page.

How does nu4chan miss OP baiting in every single comment they make? People here today genuinely engage with trolls instead of shitposting no matter how obvious they are

on the offchance you're just an idiot: winter soldier, ragnarok, black panther and...actually, all of them, all have far more 'politics' than captain marvel.

What, you're telling me the movie about government surveillance and eliminating people who's not committed a crime because they may someday be a threat with a heavy focus on the idea that people will give up freedom for security is political?

Not an idiot, I'm just not familiar with MCU :)

Feminism is a political movement though, and Brie Larson has directly said that this is a feminist film

>movies heavily political?
CapMarvel was not. Stop projecting and forcing your /pol/ fanfiction into a 7/10 movie.
In case you did not know, CapM has been a hardcore feminist since the '70s, nothing changed.

I'd describe it as 'very lightly feminist'. Mostly in tune rather than lyrics, in that it deals with themes that are important to the feminist community, like self definition vs a role imposed on you + mentioning actual historical facts at one point about women pilots not being in combat zones in the 80s. It's one of the least political movies marvel has made so far.

Consumer activism, best activism

Feminism is a political movement, dude...

But yeah, the movie's very misandrist. Carol Danvers was a sassy bitch to nearly every male character she encountered. Nick Fury's character was emasculated and his eye injury was made into a joke

Cap Marvel is a feminist, she was written to be one.

BP is literally the opposite of what /pol/ pretends it is. The guy who wanted revenge against white people was the bad guy.
i haven't seen it yet but Brie definitely was promoting it like it was a feminist film. If feminists say that it's a misandrist film then I don't see why I should argue, even if the film itself wasn't political the marketing for it clearly was and that's reason enough to not watch it.

>she was written to be one
in the 60s, when feminism meant something completely different than it does today.
pic-related was even considered a "feminist" back then, now he's considered a misogynist.

>even if the film itself wasn't political the marketing for it clearly was and that's reason enough to not watch it.

Which marketing for it was feminist and not just normal superhero stuff?

The Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, and Avengers series are all about various aspects of political warfare, genocide, war profiteering, government surveillance, etc, etc.

But then someone tries to tell you that women and black people can be as worthy as white men, and OMG MARVEL MOVIES ARE SO *POLITICAL* NOW!
