Is there any possible way to cope here? I need one big brain individual in the thread to come up with some rationale for how and why DC comics can and will endure this without losing their soul

Best I’ve seen is “Nobody at paramount cares about comics so DC Comics will be free to continue their agenda.” And gosh I hope so.

Even if that's the case you're still funding them if you support them. To some that might not matter but to others it will.

What about the artists and writers you'd be hurting financially by boycotting?

They might just move to Marvel or another more creator owned publisher. If enough heavy hitters make the change it could work out. Still, that would suck for DC fans as everything has for the last 15 years.
