Milo Yiannapoulous reminds that comicdom is also a victim of SJWs

The Breitbart contributor Milo Yiannapoulous wrote about how SJW-style feminism has caused damage to society. Not only does he bring up why the Gamergate campaign was launched, he also notes how comicdom was no exception:
Consider the GamerGate controversy, where gamers fought back against the nannying, hectoring feelings police and were branded “harassers” and “misogynists.” It’s also happened in comics: if you go to an online comics forum and talk about anything but how stunning and brave the new SJW storylines are, you’ll get the boot.This reminds me that I once saw a leading webmaster for CBR throwing somebody out because he loathed the guy's suggesting a Gamergate style campaign for comic books. It's not hard to guess why. As journalists, CBR's owners must feel rubbed the wrong way whenever somebody points out how the press can be dishonest. Yet they must wonder why their audiences are declining. If the press cannot admit their capability of making mistakes, then they can't be surprised. Now, the little audience they have left are these SJW types who probably don't even read a lot of the mainstream products they seek to devastate, and they do nothing to distance themselves from a bad crowd. That's how and why comicdom went downhill all these years.

Oh dear. In today's new issue of Captain America: Sam Wilson Spencer introduces superpowered police called the "Americops" who of course beat up black people and Muslims for no reason. I don't know if Marvel has one book free of social justice garbage anymore.
Oh, Spencer really is in rare form, then, this month. -_-
Here is a follow-up to yesterday's Breitbart post:

I also missed this, as I sometimes read Wonder Woman, but not often enough:
"Other comic book publishers are hardly saints, of course. In an issue of DC’s Wonder Woman last year, the popular female superhero complained about a villain “mansplaining” to her before an ally punched him in the face for the crime. “The lasso compels truth, but it can’t stop mansplaining,” declared Wonder Woman as the “bad guy” had his teeth knocked out of his mouth."
Oh, goodie, but that was bound to happen, I suppose. It doesn't make it any easier, though.
