So this video came across my feed and it started me wondering some things:

I don't really read Marvel anymore, my son does though. So I still end up talking with him and the owners of the store we go to about the titles. There appears to be a trend lately where more people (Local to me), are backing away from Marvel titles, except for Deadpool, which even my wife reads.
Can you all tell me if this trend is happening elsewhere?
What is marvel doing with stuff like this? Is it happening in all of their titles?
Is this a byproduct of Disney, or what?
Thank you for your time.

Well, a lot of comics are getting SJWed, people don't like it. It talks down to the audience in some kind of snobbish patronizing tone. And of course Thorina didn't help, they took a character and turned it into a SJW, a badly written one at that.
Basically it isn't Disney-fication, it is SJWs warping all media, and Marvel has simply fallen to their influence more powerfully than some other outlets.

I founded a sub to track it at /r/WerthamInAction. I also created its counterpart here at /v/WerthamInAction, but haven't gotten it running yet.

Thank you for the response.
Would you happen to know off hand, what Marvel titles are safe from this sort of thing? (If any)

No, at best you can hope for only a mild influence of these crazed ultra-leftists. Or just skip Marvel entirely, as I have done. Clearly some comics are more under thumb than others, Thor in particular went into the deep end of stupid.
