This is such a joke coming from someone who has a V avatar. Have you even read V for Vendetta?

Have you??? I admonish certain despicable individuals in the police force for abuse of power while appropriating the punisher skull. I say they are twits with no decency. Then I scold the fools who demand the symbol be changed simply because a few individuals misused it. Cancel culture fascists who want everything to be inoffensive if it's deemed so by the imaginary culture war gods. Sounds pretty fucking V to me.

Simply changing a symbol in a comic book isn't going to fix the problem. Anyone who thinks so is a fool who just wants to play SJW and pretend they are actually relevant. This is politics in entertainment and is simply done to pacify so as not to lose any money from the public by attaching themselves to what is considered acceptable in the current times we are living in.

I also say those who push their agendas AND those who push back over stupid symbology are BOTH idiots. A meaningless attempt at unnecessary change that simply ruins entertainment. As meaningless as it was I also say it was a fair attempt by Aaron. He did a good job for the most part even thought it WAS unnecessary. Again, pretty goddamn V to me.

I couldn't have expected a response this gold. Lots to go over here. Firstly, yes, I have read V for Vendetta. Given the rest of your comments, I have to assume you questioning whether I had in response to me questioning you was an attempt to avoid answering with an emphatic "No." A few things to lay out about V for Vendetta: One, it's basically Alan Moore's manifesto on Anarchism, and how he thinks of freedom must be handled in a state without a governmental hierarchy.

To be clear, Alan Moore is an anarchist. Two, V for Vendetta is not only political in nature, it is enthusiastically so. Why would someone who's sick of politics in entertainment use the avatar of a series that's wholly political? Three, V is all about symbology. His entire goal throughout V for Vendetta is to become a symbol and an idea. That's the whole point of the Guy Fawkes mask and the theatricality of his actions. V understood how symbology is used to convey ideology, why can't you?

Four, V is not a centrist. V, like Alan Moore, is an anarchist. He's a character through which Alan Moore waxes about his broader ideology as it pertains to the central ideal of freedom. Reactionaries like you are not revolutionaries like V. You're actually advocating entirely for a system wherein the status quo is maintained and forced, like a boot, on the throats of everyone.

With that out of the way, let's get to the broader ideas here. You're showing your bias in an attempt to remained enlightened in your "centrism." You downplay the Punisher logo being co-opted in policing as "certain despicable individuals". The problems with policing are not individual. They are systemic.

The Punisher logo being co-opted by a massive amount of cops and servicemen is simply a symptom of an increasingly authoritarian system, wherein individuals are coerced into accepting or willingly accept more and more power over the people, in an effort to maintain a status quo of white supremacy, heteronormativity and capital. The end result of this is a police state. Many would say that places like America are already police states.

Now, you may have heard of police states in this book called V for Vendetta. The people that V is fighting in that book? The Norsefire political party? They're in control of a police state. And, if you remember from your reading, V was very against this. V was a victim of the police state, even. Why someone using a V avatar would downplay a sign of systemic policing issues is beyond me.

But you're totally fine going all in on the "SJW cancel culture fascists." Now, here's where you've got me. V probably would get cancelled. But for good reason, he did in fact torture poor Evey in a ideological drive only mustered by those too locked-up-in-a-concentration-camp to touch grass. However, like all, ahem, "victims" of cancel culture, I'm sure V would be perfectly fine about a year later, with plenty of financial opportunities to exploit from people like you.

I suggest you read up on fascism. You might find some examples of it in this book called V for Vendetta. A hallmark of fascism is perpetual victimhood. The idea that the enemy is both strong and weak. If your, no doubt, numerous copies of V for Vendetta are just too far out of reach, you can look at your own comments for an example of fascist thinking. You give the cancel culture-ers so much power and authority here.

A giant corporation like Disney tipping the scales on poor Punisher here, and taking away his logo just because some state-authorized murderers beat people while wearing it. Just to appease the culture war gods! But yet... you also imply that the SJWs behind this maddening, yet invisible culture war are completely irrelevant.

You're a joke, man. You're not a centrist. You just want to appear smart, and stupid people think centrism is smart. Pick a side. V did. In fact, you can read about it in this book you may have heard of called V for Vendetta.

@Psycamorean Why is this all you do on here? What's the point?

This isn't all I do here. I am right, which is point enough for me.

I'm honestly surprised you weren't banned around the same time as Merlyn.

As I said, I don't live on here. You obviously do. Dear God man. Get out of your mothers basement, drop about 400 kilos and find some real people to talk to. Discord is no way to live. I'm not taking any more time to respond to your asinine ravings. It went from 4 comments to 17? Really? Here are my final thoughts. You are NOT right but you are a snide, pompous, condescending, delusional egotist who would rather fire barbs at people for their point of view, to either seem enlightened

(which you certainly are not) or to spur some sort of interaction with another person, than actually review a comic book. You seem desperate for attention so my best play here is to deny you of any further comments. Truly a sad little man.

If you can't read my response, there's no way you got through V for Vendetta. Moore stuffed at least three times what I wrote into each page.

Sigh....never said I didn't read it, just said I wasn't taking the time to respond. A point by point disemboweling of your comments would take much more time than you, a pitiful little cretin, is worth. Also here is proof YOU don't take the time to read what is written, just respond without a thought. That alone tells me the content is unworthy of my time. Congratulations though, you got me to give you some more of the attention that you obviously crave. No more though.

I read what you wrote and what I took away from it is that you aren't willing to actually talk about the book because you know you either didn't read it, or you really missed the point, because you just tried to insult me. I typed out my first response in five minutes, I'm sure you're just as capable.

The guy is unhinged. Don't even waste your time on Psycameran he's a spammer and spends WAY too much time on here writing out garbage reviews.

Hey it's the guy who does nothing but fetish roleplay on Twitter calling someone else unhinged. I really wanted to ask if you bit the bullet and bought a checkmark from elon?

At first I thought that too. He seemed like a nerdy Kanye. Just a lunatic without a clue. Then when he wrote an entire dissertation on a comic book just to unsuccessfully humiliate a person on the internet he's never met I realized he's more like a cross between the comic book guy on the Simpsons and Vizzini from the princess bride. INCONCEIVABLE! I never make fun of special needs people but this one is insufferable. He is the type of person that caused trolling to be invented.

I love how you'll both talk trash about me but neither of you is willing to actually discuss V for Vendetta, and what I said about it. I just pants'd you over not understanding the material/not even reading it, and the most you can hit me with is a Princess Bride reference. You can't discuss V because you know it'll just make it more obvious that you don't understand V. Sad!

Quiet now. Adults are talking.

Again, outright refusal to engage with the premise of the entire interaction. If either of you are functioning adults, then we've got a real problem on our hands. RedKSuperman spends all their time in a horny haze and you've got the critical analysis skills of an underperforming lobster.

Oh, you don't get it? I only engage people in actual conversation or friendly debates if I like them. I only interact with you to fuck with you cause your a condescending, snide, dogmatic prick. If I engage you in what you want to talk about, I give you what you want. In no way will I give you any satisfaction here fuck nugget. You live to go back and forth with strangers on the web cause you have no life and no one will touch you. That's why you put your discord on all your posts.

Does that clear it up for you? BTW I wont be checking for your response as I'm done here (but only here, I'll be sure to keep in touch sunshine) but feel free to write a novel for the others you think are your audience.

What I want is some semblance of proof that you have read V for Vendetta. You can think I have no life or that no one will touch me, that's fine. The fact that you'll "keep in touch" but won't simply prove you've read the book means you actually can't.

And the discord is for getting people who read comics to discuss with. We do a book club, even. This week is East of West #1 - 10. Join here: https://discord.gg/xJz6buvNFZ

Posting multiple times doesn't exactly disprove that you're unhinged. Also, your repeated false assertions that I'm some weird twitter handle which you probally created is further evidence of your poor mental state. In closing stop spamming your Discord channel. You've left reviews that are just the link. Either review the book or STFU.

It's your twitter. I'm not even the one who found it initially. That's why you changed your name immediately after someone brought it up on CBRU. It's okay to be horny, but it's really funny that someone like you would be that type of guy. It's not spam to put links in my reviews. I still review the book, I just don't say anything about it. That's what those ratings are for. It actually makes sense that you wouldn't realize that since you default to a 1/10 for most of what you read.

1st no it isn't my Twitter, I changed it as not to be associated with that. 2nd you have left reviews with no actual review just a rating and your Discord link, so that's Spam. Anyway, I want nothing to do with you so enjoy what you read and have a nice life.

So the twitter account with the same avatar and username as you wasn't yours? That's a big coincidence. It's not spam, because I do rate what I'm actually reading. Spamming would be going to every issue page, leaving it on read, and pushing my links. If I rate something, I've read it.
