They also completely missed the lesson at the end of the movie: Wakanda's isolationism wasn't just a bad thing, T'challa realized that his nation had to help people in need. He didn't say "black people in need". He spent the entire movie saying other black people weren't "his people"* whenever Killmonger spoke of black people outside of Wakanda. Wakanda was his people. And when he decided to share his people's prosperity, he decided to share it with the entire world, not just the ghettos.I’m only half joking when I say these people saw Black Panther and missed the point that Wakanda’s isolationism was a bad thing.
It would at least explain why they’re trying to be wannabe Killmongers.
It really is too much to expect these people to look beyond their own preconceptions and ideology.
* That is a pretty realistic and common attitude in Africa, by the way. Most Sub-Saharan Africans in places where white people aren't common (meaning: outside of South Africa) don't specially care for black people over white people, they care for their family, their tribe, their nation. You know, just like white people everywhere.
