There's an interesting bride-gathering motif in the story of Superman... I don't think it's conscious in the new movie, but it's present there as well. ⬇️
Superman is sent to Earth by his Kryptonian parents, because 1) He will be safe there, and 2) He will be able to show the people how to live rightly.

Richard Nixon once said that, blacks have no hope for a future, because they have no culture. Latinos have problems, but they belong to a Latin-American civilization.
It’s predominantly shaped by Iberian Europe, but Latinos still claim it wholly. They’re integrated into it ⬇️.
But blacks don’t claim European civilization. They reject it. But what do they replace it with?

I’ve noticed kind of a trend with intelligent people, while thinking about Thiel’s naming of “Palantír” and “Mythril (Capital)”.
It seems like they like to give their creations names with deep meaning, but *esoteric* meaning—
—if people had thought of all the implications of the name “Palantir”, they might know what he was thinking—but people don’t read, and they don’t think. So it’s mysterious.
