And even when Claremont did allegorical stuff, like the aforementioned God Loves, Man Kills, it was done in a straight forward and communicable way. The lesson is don't judge a book by its cover. The problem is the more you dwell, the more retarded things become, because people ask the same questions. It is fine to rip from real life and make allusions to real life but over time people question it when you make it the be all and end all thing.
