An alt-right conspiracy theorist suggested Stan Lee would disapprove of Marvel’s path and these 9 clapbacks were glorious

Pro-Trump cable TV correspondent and spreader of alt-right conspiracies, Jack Posobiec, isn’t known for being the sharpest tool in the shed, even when that shed is famously full of blunt tools. He recently expressed an off opinion about the direction of travel of Marvel, with this ill-thought-out tweet.

Imagine if Stan Lee saw what they’ve turned the MCU into…

Now, he didn’t exactly specify what he was getting at, but he posted this:

Origin Stories

Batman: Parents murdered in front of him when he was a child

Superman: Entire planet destroyed, last of his people

Spiderman: Uncle murdered when he could have saved him

Captain Marvel: Got told "Baseball isn't for little girls"

He also urged his followers to boycott the Captain Marvel film, so his Stan Lee tweet was probably another dig at that, but he didn’t get away with it.

Your mother didn't carry you for nine months for you to weaponise a dead man because you're scared of a woman… https://t.co/SDcghoogyH

There's been literally one MCU movie released since he passed away, and he's in it

Steve Ditko, Jack Kirby and Stan Lee's comics and mindsets changed over time
Their visions stayed the same, but times change. Stan wanted diversity & equality, and that's exactly what's happening https://t.co/Qtd03znbxV

Idiot who knows nothing about Stan Lee evokes Stan lee while trying to score nerd points attacking the values that Stan Lee stood for.

TIL that Stan Lee's cameos in every MCU movie were all done without his knowledge. HUGE if true. https://t.co/j4C1xJeXkG

Stan Lee’s own words absolutely smash any petty theories Posobiec might have had.

The MCU not only honors Stan Lee’s legacy as a storyteller, but embodies Stan Lee’s belief in inclusion. Stan himself said that Marvel comics are for everyone, and that the Marvel fandom has no room for hate, intolerance, or bigotry pic.twitter.com/wCdCbsa7V5
