So much effort put into blaming the dwarfs controversy on this movie's failure when in actuality it had little to do with the reason why the film went straight down the toilet

I actually enjoyed the movie and have been recommending it to others on various online platforms. But I now see a trend in the media that I find a bit distressing. There appear to be quite a few publications out there that have been cheerleading the movie and even going so far as to defend it or gloss over it's shortcomings as if they are doing everything they can to keep the movie from being considered a failure. And it seems as if they are doing so due to the fact that a black actor, Anthony Mackie, has taken the mantle from a white actor, Chris Evans, in playing a marquee figure within the entire pantheon of Marvel Comics superheroes and is not reaching the standard of success as set by his white counterpart. And that outcome is a big no-no for these legacy outlets. I don't know why they can't simply accept the outcome for what it is and leave it at that.

What happened to the comments that were posted earlier critical of this article and in favor of this movie? Is screenrant taking down posts simply for the fact that they don't agree with what their articles say?
