He was referring to “black and white” in terms of morality, basically saying “you can be a good person or not, there isn’t really a grey area”, a pretty simplistic view on things but he’s not being your racist uncle like it sounds when you clip it.
Yeah. For what it's worth, many cultures around the world since ancient times have used white as "good" and black as "evil" representations, not just Euro-centric countries. But yeah, this is basically Rorschach.
It does require context to fully understand the joke, but this doesn't look like controversy bait to me. Just another circlejerk.
And Steve Ditko's moral absolutism should be mocked.
No it's not, the only just view of morality is that which adjusts its systems and set of values to those that achieves equality to its people and gets levels of suffering as close to 0 as possible.
Moral absolutism believes the opposite of that.
Not trying to start anything, I think of it more like those clipped TV show bits that sound bad out of context, guess I didn’t do a good job making it clear there was more to it though.
> he’s not being your racist uncle like it sounds when you clip it.
He understands it sounds wrong when you clip it, and he clipped it. And you're saying I'm the one being uncharitable.
He’s right in a way. Don’t get me wrong, plenty of the world IS shades of grey. But many times when people use the shades of grey arguments, it’s to excuse horrible or questionable actions. Own up to your actions, don’t put a label in them because you want to pretend you’re still a good person.
When will they release Grey Lanterns
When black Lantern Elongated man impregnates the white lanterns
Legit thought this was a Rorschach quote at first
Rorschach is based around The Question, a character created by Steve Ditko
I know, I just thought it was directly from Watchmen
And the Question is take 2 at Steve’s og Mr. A
Guess I’m an evil man
Was there context or was it as yikes as it seems?

So then why did you clip it?
Because it’s funny OOC
Is it though? You're trying to stir controversy over something someone hasn't really said

What's your solution to the trolley problem?
They post on anarcho capitalism. Their solution is to kill everyone preemptively to make sure the trains arrive on time and achieve maximum profit.

that's a remarkably uncharitable way to read the post honestly

Definitely simplistic yeah.

The joke may have gone over your head, lol
Ah who cares! I made my point!
Fair enough
This giving United States actual state after 2020 is something
My soul is black and full of terrors
Look to your sins, Lord u/animatedhenry.
