Part 8/11:
This internal discord has raised questions about the company's future direction. Critics contend that the emphasis on activism and woke politics alienates audiences, hampers storytelling, and ultimately damages Marvel’s brand.

When personnel prioritize social issues over genuine project commitments, the overall quality suffers, and corporate reputations can be irreparably damaged.
