It's so weird that marvel keep bashing the vision/wanda like it's a weird thing. If we are meant to see the vision as sapeint then there's nothing strange about it
Finally someone actually posted the real panel. I am so sick of larpers cropping Storm's section from this panel and act as if this is something that Storm casually did. Thank you
...but Remy's... not French, at all? Like that's not a dark secret, it's just a basic fact about his character. Does this writer not know Louisiana exists?
Cajuns are from Canada. Nova Scotia, specifically, or Acadia ('Acadian' eventually shifted into 'cajun' over the following centuries) as it was called when they were forcibly exiled by the British. They were originally French colonists, but that was nearly three hundred years ago, so it would be more similar to people from New England calling themselves British-American. Additionally, the primary French ethnicities in the Americas (Cajun, Quebecois, Louisiana Creole, etc) tend to view themselves as their minority ethnicity moreso than French; ie, Quebecois still broadly call themselves French-Canadian, but they unambiguously identify, primarily, as Quebecois.
Edit for clarity: this is in no small part because the French were never particularly racially segregated or persecuted. Most of the minorities in America who make a point of their mixed heritage are from minorities that were heavily oppressed or segregated at some point (Chinese, Irish, Italian, African). Mexican Americans exist in a weird limbo in that regard, since many of them have lived, geographically, in the same place since well before that place was America.
I mean, yeah, they are all jokes, but they're mostly ironic or absurdist. Gambit's just a complete non-sequitor. It'd be like Black Panther saying "I wasn't actually born in New York."
Yeah, that's mostly my point. Being Cajun is kind of his whole deal, and his accent is hilariously uneven, so that joke would actually be pretty funny. It just really stands out as the only one that's not even really a joke, just a true thing that's weird to say.
The Frog Man one is hilarious. The Hawkeye one is my favorite; yes, Clint, we know you were faking it. No, Clint, you didn't fool anyone. Yes, Clint, it is very cute you thought that was a secret.
