I wonder what people like this imagine an episode of chapo trap house is, like in terms of content

it's a room of Nick Mullen clones all talking over one another as they compete to say the most racist joke.

today I was reminded of the episode with one of the Street Fight guys where he talked about the Dancing Cop of Columbus, Ohio.

Alan Moore is what the UKIP freaks really should mean when they talk about 'the roots of England' and all because he's just a big bearded rear end in a top hat who wants to live in the woods and gently caress all day while having a religion that's probably just a joke he made up to gently caress with people and his accent sounds like what a bad comic would do for 'english guy voice'. This is literally all of english culture condensed into one form, Nigel.

You lost today, kid. But that doesn't mean you have to like it.


I first heard what Moore sounded like years ago when another comic writer (I think Ellis?) was talking about how Moore took all of his Watchmen money and gave it to some Welsh anarchists who supply him with haybale-sized bundles of weed.

"I've recently built a cave under my house. For my magic. I can never sell my house now, Warren. Not everyone wants a magic cave."

I don’t know who Rawan is, but I just remembered that the Pisspiggranddad episode was really good too. The part where Felix asks Brace if the YPG’s makeshift tank had an aux cord was an all-time moment for me.

This was surprisingly interesting and endearing.

I'm the kind of atheist dweeb who dislikes mysticism outsode of tabletop RPG sessions and despairs when people take horoscopes seriously. And yet somehow, Moore's brand of mumbo jumbo is just so wide and literary it's like he's just taking a pastiche of philosophy, politics, and some pet literature and ascribing it causality and magical meaning. It's inoffensive, and a little bit interesting.

That, and his bit about free will and optimism near the end was surprisingly on-point and sweet.

I'mma big hypocryte, is what I'm saying.

Alan Moore is a great interviewee. Will said about 15 words in that whole episode.

"Good morning Alan, I'd like to ask you..."

"Yes good morning that's an interesting concept isn't it, "morning" when you consider the immutability of time as a physical aspect of the universe. It reminds me of a Blake poem..." *goes on for forty minutes*

Here is a handy guide for who is/is not a fascist in comics-

Alan Moore: wrote a super anti-Thatcher graphic novel with ‘V for Vendetta’

Frank Miller: Wrote a graphic novel where his not-Batman murders Muslims that are drawn in a stereotypical fashion

Moore also wrote Watchmen which is basically "Superheroes are fascist bullshit: the comicbook"

I think Will was on Struggle Session or something and they talked about how much the movie misses the entire point of the comic (probably not unintentionally though).
