Part 4/9:
The mainstream media, however, seems to have a different narrative. Articles have emerged claiming that Ironheart is being unfairly criticized by "racist" fans or "MAGA trolls," a classic attempt at deflecting negative reviews and blaming viewers' reactions on bigotry rather than quality concerns. Critics argue that this tactic aims to polarize and dismiss legitimate dissatisfaction, framing it as motivated by prejudice rather than critique of the show itself.
This "cope" is part of a broader pattern where industry insiders and media outlets try to shield Marvel projects from scrutiny by shifting the narrative towards identity politics and social issues, rather than engaging with the actual content quality.
