Is Alan Moore right about the idea that capeshit is inherently a fascist power fantasy? Is it our underlying yearning for the superman to arrive and take control?
>>
>>216496162
>Is Alan Moore right
no

Yeah but who cares about what a old fag says
>>
>>216496162
Superman is a Jewish power fantasy. He’s the Messiah they’re waiting for. Not a carpenter that got nailed to a cross but a super Jew like Samson that eill rid their enemies. Why all this Christ crap being forced on Superman is hilarious.

Germans didn’t invent the super powered beings. Superman is straight up Moses and Samson. Instead of his weakness being his hair it’s a rock

>capeshit is inherently a fascist power fantasy
Superheroes were popularized by WW2 comics of fighting nazis

Alan Moore is a literal communist who worships snakes and only says shit like that because he’s pissed off about the way DC Comics treated him over Watchmen. They told him as soon as they stopped printing it, he’d get the rights to the characters back, but then they kept re-releasing it and screwed him out of a deal. He’s still extremely bitter about that so he feels like he has to be a contrarian about the very things that gave him a career to begin with. He also unironically believes he’s a wizard who can cast spells. Anyone who says “durr alan moore is right!” is a faggot.

No
Humans since the dawn of time have looked at the stars and see greater powers than himself
The greeks are famous for battling their pantheon and all gods being rascals and assholes, but most humans working WITH them
If alan moore is a cuck and he can only see higher powers taking over, and humans "yearning" for them to take over, it's not my problem, that says more about him than any mythology

Thanks for influencing an entire generation of fat obsessive manbabies to taking children's characters and media and transforming them into weird, fetishistic tryhard nonsense. You hack.

Maybe but if so “fascism” basically defines the entire political spectrum as even libs love the shit out of super hero movies and do the exact same hero worship/apologia for anti-democratic action when their guy is in charge.
It’s an understandable perspective for a commited leftist to have but unless you are a commie it’s basically retarded and pedantic.

this.
the gods of Europe were all far more human, despite their godliness. norse, greek, roman.
heroes in general were people to admire, to look up to, to want to emulate in some respect. not entirely, just aspects.
>>
Pretty much any kind of individual agency is a form of fascism. Sensible, socially responsible, mature and level-headed people have already come together and recognised that the correct way to live is to simply let everything that happens to you happen, for the ultimate moral good of never being mean, never scaring anyone and never making anyone uncomfortable by existing. Grown-ups know that to be able to live together human beings must be better and never do anything, at all, for any reason. That way, we can best and most efficiently agree with the experts and leaders of our society and never have any conflicts again.

>>216496162
Yes, there might be a hint of it. Specially with some heroes. In the case of Superman, fuck no. Its not about solving problems. Its about leading people so they can solve their problems. Superman doesnt interfere with political/social stuff. He is only here to punch monsters and inspire people to do the right thing. Anyone trying the opposite just only wants to advance their political agenda through superman=good=my political opinion.

Superman Peace on Earth and BvS unironically have a good grasp on this.

Leftists see heroes stopping villains, saving people and preventing crime as inherently evil, so everyone against them is inherently fascist.
>>
>>216497932
Doesn't matter. Superman is a Christ figure and whoever doesn't get that misunderstands the character

There is nothing Christ about Superman. He was created by two Jesus and is obviously a mix of Moses and Samson. Jesus was a pacifist. Superman was anything but.

Even if he was, that would still make superman jewish.

Kinda, yeah, but it's fine. Capeshit is fascist the same way having laws and borders and a national identity is fascist, or the way having a social safety net is socialist.
Sometimes stuff just is, doesn't mean there have gotta be death squads about it.

Stalin was a monster but he was right. Capitalism needs a counterpower or else it lost direction and everything turn to shit. See our current times
>>
>>216497588
It's not like Alan Moore is a Stalin fan anyway. He put him next to fascist leaders. Arguably the extreme right and the extreme left are basically the same. Inb4 trannies, historically the extreme left that reach power is socially conservative. There are plenty of examples. It's not like trannies are accepted on China or North Korea

>what it really takes to solve shit isn’t for democratic ground-up social change, will of the people & respect for law bullshit, that’s for the feckless masses too unable to do anything but stand and stare, it’s for some vigilante strongman to convince himself that he is right and entitled just go out & fuck shit up wherever he sees fit for his own goals.

Terrorist or fascist, either way, a great fuckin ideology to raise a little psychopath on.

Technically fascist are right-wing terrorists. Just like Al Qaeda but Christians instead of muslims. Ironically Hitler himself admired Islam and wished it could be Germany's religion instead of Christianity. Hitler's wish will turn true but in a way Hitler never expected

You're a complete and utter fucking retard. Fascism isn't 'right-wing terrorism' nor is fascism linked inherently with Christendom. There's a world outside your American social media sphere.

No.
>>
>>216501142
Fascism often cross with Christianity. See Franco and Mussolini. Also all those fascist puppet governments installed and supported by USA on the third world. They were often associated with the Catholic church, especially in Latin America. Fascism is about defending tradition while maintaning capitalism that itself destroy tradition by its nature and religion is often associated with tradition

as trump has revealed, that world is a joke and doesn’t matter.

>>
>>216496162
I disagree because the baseline for superheroes is really about people hoping that there's good in the world. It's not so much that we need some ubermensch to arrive and take control but that superheroes represent the idea that people who do bad things will get what's coming to them.

Hitler was never elected by popular vote, he took power after the Reichstag fire. Then he banned aĺ the Conservative parties who gave him a seat in their coalition

Superman is tied directly to the US. Why he’s called The Man of Steel. In the Golden Age he was all about punishing the lawless and helping the downtrodden. Post WW2 and US being a powerhouse just like the nuclear bomb Superman become a nuclear solar battery. Like US they didn’t want him to
look like a bully picking on weaker enemies so they made super villains for him just like USSR become US’s super villain

These movies and shows are part of the bigger culture weapon US cultural dumping represents.
When an enslaver repeatedly tells these stories over 80 years, eventually it beds down in the minds of the gullible. After a while people who are victims to the weapon lose themselves and identify with their jailer more than their own people and countries. That is the purpose, domination of mind weakening resistance followed by sanctions, invasion, regime change, and suddenly a new outpost to push on to fresh targets is born.
