"Of course men are the villains when they hold the most power."

I agree with the statement, but not the context.

Looking at Velma, Dragon Age: Veilguard, Ghostbusters 2016, Star Wars sequels, She-Hulk, and much more, a good chunk of such Western media feels like they have some disdain for a large portion of fans who watch them.

Like a Superiority complex formed out of deeprooted insecurities of their feelings towards men.

You could argue men have reacted to this in the same way, especially in Instagram and the like.

If you're going to use art to back up your point that society hates men, then there is a literal mountain of artwork throughout humanity that vilifies women.

This is about a trend of the recent decades to reboot popular franchises with formerly male heroes and replace them with female versions (instead of, i.e. think up new female heroes).

If we're talking about where future art direction is going, then how much artwork from centuries ago exists is not relevant.

Nobody should be villified for who they are born as, especially on Mainstream media. That's my point.
