Not yet but give it time. In the meantime here is female wolverine for you, in a twerking pose
This is real.
Nigga please... you probably laughed hard at the spider woman "controversy" cover like I did, and now you're doing the same as the SJW's did with a pose that we already saw wolverine in, likely more than once?

I was posting another male->female character in funny art. Atleast Thor got a costume change. Here it's Wolv's old costume slapped onto X23 and put her in a pose that looks retarded on her. I don't remember Logan doing stretching exercises like that. He looked better popping claws
The main point was the needless gender change. The hilarious art was just a bonus.
But it seems like you are drawing your own conclusions
I see you shitlords arguing and not being able to handle strong independent womyn that need no man. Well then hold on to your misogynoodles, be sure to donate to that kickstarter and brace yourselves for the brave new world!

I cant believe this is not parody. The game could even turn out to be decent, but how could they have thought that this type of pandering would attract anyone except people who dont buy or play games is beyond me..
Haha I just watched it - that's some serious shitty pandering! Pretending that sexy girls like that are into games is NOT going to make it reality. Also, making both girls look lesbian the way they eye each other up is kinda sending a conflicting message
Because they are being brainwashed starting with college?
You know, the reason Chris Rock and Seinfeld don't do college speaking events anymore? Or how ambition and stuff like that is now a trigger warning in college etc etc.

- I still don't understand what this so called PC culture is supposed to be.
- I still don't understand where this so called PC culture comes from.
- I still don't understand what PC culture has to do with colleges in particular when it's omnipresent (working life, politics, media, entertainment, ...) in U.S. society.
- I don't understand why fighting for particular causes like the rights of black people of feminism has anything to do with tribalism. That's not my definition of tribalism.
Overall they talked about the college loans situation and the students debt and how ignorant young people are, ... so basically they talked about college kids in a very broad way, ... but what it has to do with PC culture...
I do agree that the discussion in the clip was pretty much taking around the issue and did not give any info on what are the underlying causes. At the risk of being redundant and talking about things you already know:

Things that are politically incorrect are provably factual and true, but are not acceptable to say due to the fact negatively affecting some minority or perceived victimized group. For example, facts like "there is no rape culture and the 1 in 5 women raped college is a myth (actually its 1 in 52,6)" or "Accounting for population, black people are 27 times more likely to attack a white person than the other way around based on DOJ statistics in the US (Latinos are only 8 time more likely to do that despite there being slightly more of them, proving that the 'chance of encounter' effect is not the only reason for that)" cant be talked about out of fear of being called sexist or racist or whatever.
Some of these things are very uncomfortable to be sure, but how can one even start to look for a solution if people don't feel free to acknowledge what the situation actually is.
TL;DR PC culture is the fear of acknowledging or discussing certain topics out of fear of appearing something-ist

These two are very complicated questions that demand overly long and boring answers. To sum it up as short as possible:
1. A bit before the 1960 and during the civil rights movement in the US a social sciences field called "Critical theory" got a foothold at prominent liberal colleges and spread through the faculties. In a nutshell it strives to critique and change society as a whole, in contrast to traditional theory oriented only to understanding or explaining it. It relies not on data of averages or statistics, but on individual stories of oppression so pretty much on complaining. So colleges are pretty much ground zero.
2. A couple generations of graduates from such social sciences faculties, who become activists seeking to change society, in the professions of journalism, teaching, community organizing, art and media criticism flood through the public sphere of US.
3. In recent years young people who grow up in a cultural sphere dominated by such individuals get their hands on social media, network with other like minded youngsters and further reinforce their half-baked views in echo-chambers like tumblr and twitter.
4. When they finally get into colleges they find themselves even more radical than their like minded professors and we get the situation we have now that Maher and other comedians are talking about.

SJWs don't really fight for any of those things though, they mainly use these issues to pump up their ego and to signal what a great person they are. The tribe in this case are the other like minded SJWs who mutually reinforce each others beliefs and self esteem in their so called "safe spaces" (read, echo-chambers). This is how issues like feminism become so distorted from their original point or intent when Tumblr gets hold of them.
A good, if a bit long and meandering, video about the phenomenon of SJWs is this one:
I hope I was not too redundant and did not waste your time with boring stuff you already knew about.

So they're being brainwashed in college and Chris Rock and Seinfeld don't hold no speeches there anymore.
Ok, I think I got it now.
Spoiler:
I can't quite figure it out if you are being deliberately an idiot or just generally an idiot. This specific topic has been discussed several times in this thread with plenty of examples and articles (including the big article about the new trigger warnings in californian colleges). Your reaction to my examples can only mean you haven't actually bothered reading any of it so you got fuck all idea what I'm talking about and you just throw your weight around for no reason.
Edit: In this case I acknowledge that this is my fault as I expected you to have followed the thread and already know the prior discussions.
Here's a normal thought process: observe, notice patterns, create theory, test theory, use data to achieve your will.
Here's the politically correct thought process: everything must be equal (ideology), if observation based patterns show otherwise, then discredit author with ad hominem attacks. Everything stays the same, perhaps getting worse.
The moment you victimize a group, you take away their agency (ironic, eh?), so all this political correctness is not only hurting public discourse, but the so called disadvantaged groups as well.
Philosophically it boils down to what type of "equality" should a society have?
Conservaties generally (not all) say we should strive for equality of opportunity, but even that is unachievable, because of inherent differences.
Liberals generally (not all) judge a society's fairness based on outcome, whether there is equality there.
Case in point: women in STEM studies. Conservatives say there is no problem, the chance is there for everyone, who wants to take it. Liberals say there is a big problem, because the split is not 50/50.
So in the liberal way of thinking on this issue, they must find the cause why it isn't 50/50. They assume we are equal in most respects (interests, IQ, etc), so what could be the problem? Society, obviously.
In the conservative way of thinking on this issue, if the chances are equal (which, btw, in western europe and north america are completely equal in education), then the difference is not societal, instead it boils down to individual choices: what women want. Perhaps they are simply not as interested in these fields.
But the conservative conclusion is MIND-SHATTERING for many liberals, as it would mean that men and women are NOT equal to begin with, because men like manly things, and women like womanly things. Heresy!

Obviously men and women are different, to say otherwise is to try and apply SJW tactics to rebelling against nature. Some things are a given, and have to be accepted.
Well it's not mind shattering for them because then they just find some new BS angle as to where there is a "problem". So they'll admit there is a difference but it is the white males fault for not educating girls more at a young age to like things like science more.
I have kids and my girls DO NOT like doing the things boys do, and trust me I've tried because I hate doing the stuff they like. But remember it's my fault still and in 20 years when my girl does a job that women like to do I'll be blamed for her not choosing to go into computer engineering.
They simply cannot accept that there are biological/physical differences between men and women besides women having a uterus.
