Are there any other right-leaning creators in the comic book industry?
Not trying to start shit, just curious.

There are lots of them. Most of them know better than to start shit. That's how it is when it comes to the entertainment industry as a whole.

... Actually, just what the fuck IS Objectivism anyway? No matter how many times I look up a summary, it just fails to make any damn sense.

All I ever get out of it is "Look out for yourself, and everyone else can go fuck themselves.", but I know that can't be right.

Can someone explain this philosophy to me? Cause apparently, me am too dum to get wat point is.

Danny O'Neil's run.

That's pretty much what it is.

Objectivism is the favorite philosophy of sociopaths and people who don't read philosophy.

This so much. #26 especially. The question vs Riddler is such a great matchup.

>>92662218
Read some Mr. A comics. They're insane but weirdly entertaining and expository enough give a decent enough overview
>>
>>92662218
Ditko was big on the idea of absolute morality. "A is A" To simplify, good is good, bad is bad.
And being bad is inherently self destructive. His characters would often look out for people who thought were good, but often let bad people (criminals and so forth) to their own fate.

Question pretty infamously taunts several men as they drown in a sewer in Ditko's run. And Mr. A straight up lets a delinquent fall to his death while taking his mother to the hospital.

I hardly think that can count as proof that there are right-leaning writers

It's much more likely that it's simply DC having editors actually doing their job and not letting people completely fill the comics with their view of the world to the detriment of the story
>>
>>92662218
Ayn Rand's bullshit. In comics terms, if you've read Watchmen, Rorschach is kind of the parody of that philosophy. There's all that "they'll look up and shout save us and I'll just flick them off because I'm a closet homosexual."

My bets are:
Robert Kirkman
Rob Liefeld
Todd McFarlane

Most comic pros are liberal or left-leaning, Chuck Dixon has talked about it before and blames it for the fact he gets no work from Marvel or DC anymore.

Oh, did they bring him back? That's cool. I don't read Marvel or DC anymore, I honestly had no idea, he just use to complain about it a lot.

Me too. And his GI Joe, and his indies... I know he's a conservative, but since he's not too graphic about that, I'm OK with him.

Lying like you just did there does not make you a good person.

>>92663031
It's funny people always say this because Ozzy and Doctor Manhattan always seem a lot more Objectivist to me. Rorschach is a legitimately good person (Abit a violent psychopath) who feels scarred and horrified when that girl gets eaten up by dogs, and wants to expose the truth about Ozzy's plan even at any cost.

His decision at the end especially makes this stereotype for him weird. A true objectivist wouldn't let themselves get vaporized just to protect the integrity of justice or social consequences.

Nietzsche was only individualist because he grew up in a time when his whole society was proto-nazis and he said "Fuck this don't be a nigger and the world will be better off."
He's inspired as much individualism (Stravinsky) as he has collectivism (Actual nazis).
>>
>>92662780
Hey, I read that series as a kid! I remember little of it, but I remember it being good.

Maybe you should make a short stick figure webcomic of it, to make an excuse to discuss it here. Or home brew a simple RPG and go to /tg/. Actually, you don't even need that, /tg/ had historical and vidya generals as long as its fantasy.
>>
>>92663590
Ayn "Cigarettes don't cause cancer my OBJECTIVITY tells me this in absolute black/white" Rand indeed.
>>
>>92663544
Ozzy is more of a classical egotist seeing how he doesn't pretend to care about morals like an objectivist and Manhattan is a literal god , his egotism is beyond mortal philosophies
>>
>>92663602
His man boner for Napoleon might also have been a factor to his individualism
>>
>>92662218
It's basically the normie and common sense philosophy. Look out for number 1. You're allowed to help others in objectivism just don't put others needs above your own and don't act like people have to follow suit in that act.

People with a hate boner for Rand are just being irrational
>>
>>92663735
>People with a hate boner for Rand
Maybe people just realize that the inevitable result of her economical proposals would result in a corrupt as fuck corporat run international oligarchich system
wel one more overt than the current one at least
>>
>>92663735
>You're allowed to help others in objectivism just don't put others needs above your own
Why?
What if your needs are just to look out for someone or you find their values more worth contributing.

>People with a hate boner for Rand are just being irrational
Humanity is irrational.
Rationality is an imperfect cognitive structure that's only evolved to the farthest capabilities that communication has allowed it. Thinking of everything in terms of rational/irrational or black/white like a robotic turbo-autistic seems pretty unreasonable to me sempai.

I think most Randtards subconsciously know that but- Owing to the fact that they're trust-fund kiddos and middle-upper class facts, assume they'll be on top and all those workers at the bottom will be a magical McGruffin to help them out or go get fucked.

I've never met a lower class or poor Ayn-Fag, why would someone spend time on pretentious philosophy against their own interests?
>>
>>92663818
Why would you need to look out for someone unless it was a relative or close relation who is younger or incapable. Also contributing how?

Would you say hate boners are reasonable?
>>
>>92664115
>Why would you need to look out for someone unless it was a relative or close relation who is younger or incapable.
You're not getting it. You said
>Just don't put others needs above your own
But why? What makes you so special entitled and important? How does that work out with someones needs are literally other people?
I cannot think of a man whose ever been born and lived entirely on their own.
