The key is in the Twitter handle, She-Hulk Lover...that means this person is still under the delusion that fans hate She Hulk, Rings of Power etc because they are sexists who hate strong women and not because the people writing these garbage shows couldn’t write their way out of kindergarten story time. According to this sad and delusional individual LOTR would be considered woke because of the strong female characters. Never mind the fact that prior to this battle Eowyn was performing all the typical female gender roles expected of a noble woman and in the books afterwards she returns to the stereotypical gender roles of a noble woman. The poster fails to realize that Eowyn is beloved because she faces adversity and hardship with courage and grace and she builds up those around her which is what ultimately leads to her being in a position to kill the Witch King. Meanwhile She Hulk is selfish, boorish and tears down all the characters around her in a vain attempt to make herself look special.

Stop expecting nuance and understanding of actual motives from "sad and delusional individuals" trying to score cheap points on Twitter. (You had me at, "sad and delusional"!)

Absolutely. I guess he thinks “right wingers” hate Aliens too, right? Lol. The strong woman who rises up in a time of need to defend her family and tribe is an ancient archetype. It’s emotionally powerful because it’s against type.

Remember Raksha the she-wolf in the Jungle Books that Shere Khan, the man-eating tiger was more afraid of than her mate?

The female of the species is always more dangerous than the male, especially when her young are at stake!

Though they claim to support feminism, leftists are terrified by and HATE strong women. Just look at the vilification of Candice Owens, Melania and Ivanka Trump, ALL the conservative women in Congress, etc, etc, ad nauseam. It definitely underlies the fanatic, more like rabid, support of men pretending to be women. Leftists are evil, dangerous, mentally ill people and need to be treated as such.

It never was about supporting women, gender choice, the environment, helping poor people, taxing the rich, a chicken in every pot, etc.

It's about power.

It's always about power.

Eowyn sounds like a blessed Proverbs 31 woman.
