If you take nothing else from what you re about to read, know this: Ta-Nehisi Coates (National Book Award winner, MacArthur Genius Grant recipient, etc) has been writing a very-much-worth-checking-out
Captain America comic book series for two and a half years now. Coates will wrap up his post-
Black Panther run this summer. If you want to read something, you know, with some insight before the dumbassery ahead, check out Volume One of Cap x Coates here. It follows the recovery of an America that HYDRA actually manages to conquer at one point, thanks to a fake Cap declaring allegiance to the organization.

On Twitter, Peterson shared scenes from the Volume 9 #28 comic, which was published last week, and said Coates had used a parody of [Peterson s] ideas as part of the philosophy of the arch-villain Red Skull.
Peterson was made aware of the Red Skull scene on Twitter when earlier this week, sociologist Nicholas A. Christakis quoted an article from
The Atlantic that said: Certain elements of our community are threatening to get people fired. Even if someone just poses a question, or expresses a conflicting view, you re immediately labeled a problem, a white supremacist, and people will say, Find out where they work.
Do I really live in a universe where Ta-Nehisi Coates has written a Captain America comic featuring a parody of my ideas as part of the philosophy of the arch villain Red Skull? https://t.co/waFsAvWlfd
“Do I really live in a universe where Ta-Nehisi Coates has written a Captain America comic featuring a parody of my ideas as part of the philosophy of the arch villain Red Skull?” opined Peterson, who is clearly shocked that spouting hateful Nazi rhetoric on YouTube for years has resulted in him being parodied as a (wait for it) hateful Nazi on YouTube.
