1. [+220, -7] What Robert Downey Jr. said doesn't sound like racism but rather a witty remark on the old Espana conquerors who committed cultural genocide of the Central American natives

2. [+232, -39] People are still caught up in that Black Widow stuff when the two clearly meant it as a joke since the Black Widow is involved with a lot of men in the original comics ㅎㅎ All of these misogynistic/racism controversies never intend to have malicious intent but people are so caught up in it that I wonder if they're even listening

3. [+80, -5] I'm still going to watch his movie

4. [+12, -4] Ugh, people are so caught up in everything... just leave him alone.

5. [+8, -2] Funny because if you all are so adamant about him being exiled, then Taeyeon should be exiled too for putting down black people and nurses

6. [+8, -3] Say anything nowadays and you get accused of being racist or a misogynist when it's not a big deal at all.

7. [+5, -1] Now that 'Avengers' looks like it's going to hit daebak, people are running around trying to find ways to bring it down ㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+2, -2] All you women made such a fuss when Jang Dong Min put down women and rallied to get him off his show, how come you girls aren't rallying to boycott 'Avengers' too? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
