Spider-Man Has Always Been Woke

[Archgod]

Let’s talk about the first Spider-Man game from Insomniac and its clear commitment to inclusivity. If you were paying attention, the signs were always there—literally. Trans flags, pride flags, and symbols of LGBTQ+ representation were scattered across New York City, blending seamlessly into the vibrant, diverse world Spider-Man protects. These details weren’t forced or over-the-top; they were just part of the city, a reflection of the real-world communities that make NYC what it is.

And let’s not forget the inclusion of gay couples in the story. The game didn’t shy away from depicting them as part of Peter’s everyday interactions, whether it was a heartfelt side quest or just the natural environment of the world. It wasn’t performative—it was just normal, which is exactly the point.

Spider-Man has always been about protecting everyone, regardless of who they are or who they love. The message of inclusivity has been woven into the character’s DNA for decades, and the game’s portrayal of a diverse, living city is just another extension of that legacy.

So, yeah, Spider-Man didn’t “go woke.” He’s been woke the whole time, even before Insomniac's games. Don't like it? Don't buy it!🥰

Seriously tired of the "woke" discourse. People really need to grow up and get a life. Art has always belonged to the left, comics especially marvel and dc almost always push inclusion, and other people existing or having their day in the sun has never hurt anyone. Like some jack offs were ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about the xmen going "woke". And its like do you even understand the xmen or have any reading comprehension? The ones complaining would literally be the typecast villians in these stories. But whatever. Stay mad. They are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ obnoxious, and annoying.

You've hit the nail on the head with this one.

Actual spiders shoot webs out their butts, however this character was designed to shoot webs out his wrists, simply because he's human, because spiders don't read comic books. Humans do. Therefore to appease human readers, Stan Lee said this Spider-Man shall shoot webs the way a "human" would. Don't like it? Don't buy it! 🥰
