Wonder Woman Fired From Honorary U.N. Ambassadorship for Being Shapely and White

A low point in Wonder Woman’s career was a recent stint as an honorary ambassador for the nefarious United Nations:

Warner Bros and DC Entertainment are sponsoring a year-long campaign by the UN and its children’s agency, Unicef, for gender equality and women’s empowerment.

DC Entertainment – which publishes DC Comics – said Wonder Woman … brought exposure to the UN’s goal of achieving gender equality by 2030 “as well as elevating the global conversation around the empowerment of women and girls”.

“Wonder Woman stands for peace, justice and equality, and for 75 years she has been a motivating force for many and will continue to be long after the conclusion of her UN honorary ambassadorship,” said Courtney Simmons, a spokesperson for the company.

That honorary ambassadorship has concluded abruptly and prematurely, due to the realization that Wonder Woman is totally unsuitable for the position.

[T]he choice of the white, curvaceous and scantily clad superhero attracted heavy criticism. Almost 45,000 people signing an online petition calling for UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to drop the character and dozens of UN employees protested at UN headquarters on the day of the appointment.

“Although the original creators may have intended Wonder Woman to represent a strong and independent ‘warrior’ woman with a feminist message, the reality is that the character’s current iteration is that of a large breasted, white woman of impossible proportions,” the petition said.

Evidently being attractive and being white are two sins against political correctness that cannot be tolerated in combination. Being quintessentially American doesn’t help either.
