22·1 month agoYour title claimed Alan moore has denounced revolutionary movements that draw symbolism from his works. You failed to elaborate on what movements and how he has denounced them. I followed sources you provided and took extracts from those sources showing what movements he has expressed support for and what movements he has denounced. You have no takeaway, you haven’t tried to say anything or provided any context for anything. You’re just pushing clickbait for votes. You don’t even seem familiar with the fact that v for vendetta isn’t just a movie.
Okay? People used a symbol he made. What’s your point. The irony of talking about the movie adaptation lmao
He summarises his position in literally the second paragraph
“Ten years on, let me make my position clear: I believe that fandom is a wonderful and vital organ of contemporary culture, without which that culture ultimately stagnates, atrophies and dies. At the same time, I’m sure that fandom is sometimes a grotesque blight that poisons the society surrounding it with its mean-spirited obsessions and ridiculous, unearned sense of entitlement. Perhaps this statement still requires some breaking down.”
This is very clearly an article specific to fandom and largely has little to do with his thoughts on political movements. Additionally, when he does make political statements he does with negative attitudes towards conservative leaders and voters. See my other comment for quotes
It’s like you haven’t even read the article. What you cited is a piece on the state of fandom. Here are the only somewhat relevant quotes from it. Notably they are consistent with everything I quoted in my previous comment
"I speak only of comics fandom here, but have gained the impression that this reflexive belligerence – most usually from middle-aged white male conservatives – is now a part of many fan communities. "
“Those who vote for Donald Trump or Boris Johnson seem less moved by policy or prior accomplishment than by how much they’ve enjoyed the performances on The Apprentice or Have I Got News for You.”
You are being deliberately disingenuous which I can only assume is to either push an agenda or to desperately hold on to the idea that you are ‘right.’
By not doing due diligence you have undoubtedly contributed to spreading misinformation. Please consider reading your sources and if you did actually read this article, I would strongly recommend undertaking a media literacy course or perhaps an english language course.
Turns out normalizing mass surveillance makes people not care about being spied on
