The Four Color Media Monitor

Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.


Warner Todd Huston at Breitbart reported about a left-wing Twitch streamer named Hasan Piker, who attacked Gal Gadot for all the wrong reasons, with the most bizarre part being that he supposedly likes a franchise originally sheparded by Jewish publishers:
Left-wing, antisemitic streaming personality Hasan Piker is attacking Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot, calling her a “dog shit actress,” and blasting her for her steadfast support for Israel.

The radical Twitch streamer was interviewed by Variety and asked about the campaign signed onto by New York City Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani’s mother to have the Israeli-born Gadot banned from the Oscars for daring to support Israel. The paper asked Piker “if such a campaign was fair.”

Hasan responded by taking a swipe at the Fast and Furious star’s acting abilities.

“I think she should be banned from the Oscars for being a dogshit actress. I think she has no business being there for the crime of what she has done to not only the DC franchise, but really any movie she’s been a part of,” Piker said.

He followed that attack up acting as if he was joking with that broadside and then blasted Gadot for her support for Israel, couching it in a sexist diatribe.

“All jokes aside, Gal Gadot serves an important role in normalizing Israel as not a fascist ethno-state, but instead a place where a lot of beautiful women come from,” he continued. “And those beautiful women happen to serve in the IDF, because there’s also this weird sexualization of the forces as well that takes place, and it plays another role in normalizing Israel and its activities and actions, and whitewashing it.”
So he blames Gadot for doing...what exactly to the DC franchise? What's ironic is that the 1st WW movie had a Turkish soldier as one of the members of Steve Trevor's group, and the 2nd had anti-American propaganda making it look like the USA was to blame for all the troubles that could be found in the middle east/north Africa, yet all the creep cares about is Gadot, and he even says exactly what sex-negative wokesters would want to hear, about Israeli soldier girls. Another thing that's also horrific about this Piker is that:
Piker has also said that American ”deserved” to be attacked on 9/11.

“America deserved 9/11, dude. Fuck it I’m saying it,”
Piker said back in 2019 during an expletive-laced tirade.

Piker later doubled down on blaming America for 9/11, a terrorist attack that killed nearly 3,000 in New York, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon
.
This is exactly why it's stunning Variety would ever give this man a platform, seeing how he's desecrated the memory of thousands of 911 victims. In the interview itself from Variety, Piker even opportunistically sought to laud James Gunn's Superman movie (which is based on the classic creation of 2 Jewish 18-year-olds, Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster):
Gadot may have ruined the DC franchise for Piker, but James Gunn is redeeming it. When “Superman” opened on July 11, Piker made viral the idea that the fictional nation of Boravia is a stand-in for Israel. In the film, Boravia, backed by U.S.-made weaponry, drops bombs on and oppresses its desert neighbor, prompting Superman to intercede. Gunn has since denied that the plotline has “anything to do with the Middle East.”

“James Gunn is a lot more woke than he lets on. And he lets on how woke he is all the time,” Piker says, still certain of the director and DC chief’s intention all these months later. “Come on, man, you made the [Boravian leader] look like David Ben-Gurion. He just straight-up looks one-to-one like the first prime minister of Israel. We don’t even care what you say about this. We know exactly what we’re looking at.”
Well, like I said before, this is exactly why I don't find these modern live action superhero movies worth wasting dough on. But it's definitely a bizarre oxymoron how somebody that antisemitic actually wants anything to do with Jewish-developed franchises. Though WW's own creators may not have been Jewish, the editors/publishers certainly were, and Superman's having Jewish creators is already old news. Which beggars the query - aside from how Variety wasted tons of space giving a platform to somebody who led to sponsors withdrawing their support for Twitch, was even accused of electrocuting a dog, and was accused by another streamer of sexual misconduct with a minor in Germany. What is so special about such awful people that they simply must be given a platform to spew their repellent drivel? Addtionally tragic is that Piker has feminist defenders at sites like The Mary Sue, and one exploited the opportunity to attack Gadot in turn:
We also can’t forget when she blamed the box office flop of 2025’s Snow White on how the cast was asked about Israel. Gal, it bombed because Rachel Zegler was the only good thing about it, and she can only carry it so much.

Frankly, it’s tiresome to listen to her continuously deflect blame. Maybe look inside yourself and see where the real problem is. More people should speak out like Piker is doing.
Frankly, it's tiresome and disgusting how the writer even normalizes his repulsive screeds, right down to the use of profanity. Though it does make clear that, no matter how left-leaning the screenplays for movies like the two WW movies could be, it won't convince antisemites and racists to abandon their loathsome ways. Perhaps this is exactly why it's atrocious in retrospect that the film studio and Patty Jenkins applied anything potentially woke to the screenplays for the WW movies, and Gadot approved/went along, because it's clear that, in the long run, it will not change the minds of anti-Israelists.

Anyway, again, it's bizarre how men like Piker could actually embrace anything to do with entertainment franchises, whether comics, movies or both, that originally had Jewish overseers decades ago. But, chances are he's not really a fan, despite what he's saying, so much as he is a fan of the politics Gunn stealthed into the Superman movie. There do indeed appear to be quite a few unpleasant people out there who, if they do read/watch certain corporate-owned products, it's only because they agree with the politics applied, not because they actually admire the Israeli-descended creators and publishers who originated specific comics in their time. But all men like Piker do is indicate they really don't have any solid positions, and apart from the loathsome things they say, they're laughable in the extreme.
