>>100402164>>100402179^ is right but everyone is going to cry /pol/ over it. It's not because he's black that it's going to be SJW but because a liberal hack writer will center his entire character around being black. The cartoon series dealt with a lot of things that happened in urban environments but didn't have to center on Static's race. Even when they did a racism episode, it actually had a lasting but closed cirucit arc that didn't devolve Static or the show into only centering itself around Virgil being black. What I fear is that we'll see Virgil become full hoodrat and/or BLM crazed as a way to be "hip and topical" rather than being a fleshed out character. They'd probably make Richie a complete flamer for Virgil because he was "supposed" to be gayish in the show (since his milestone equivalent was gay for the character Static was based on). Instead of being a good friend to Static he'll be the campy "gay friend" that's constantly trying to get Virgil to butter his biscuit. To put it into perspective, it wouldn't be Static Shock anymore it would be a CWverse version mixed with Riverdale levels of garbage writing.
