Just to be clear I'm not going to go into all that shit but it is quite obvious that a large proportion of the people who watch Comicsgater videos on Youtube or whatever either don't read comics or read comics when they were a kid in the 90s or 00s and feel curious about what is going on but have fallen into that former liberal complaining nerd gets mad at franchises being fucked when plenty of shit storylines also happened when they were reading comics but their nostalgia ignores that. Not defending the modern status quo but yes, they don't read shit.

>What's crazy is the sheer amount of Moore threads we have had, and most of the replies will always be Youtube comment-tier misinformation
90% of the Moore issue is one out of context quote and the fact that no one reads or watches any interviews he is in. He comes across as genuinely nice and chill in interviews. There is one interview where some person mentions the V for Vendetta movie to his face and he was super chill with him and the person who was interviewing Moore says he is too genuinely nice to take umbridge with that.

>This has been generally true for decades. Comics are a niche hobby.
Yes, no shit, comics are a niche hobby and have been for a long time and as a medium they are not that large but we're talking about two different things. The Internet has created a situation where far too many people feel comfortable in commenting on stuff they have very little interest or knowledge in and unfortunately they end up completely dominating the conversation driving out everyone else. The culture wars conversation over comics completely eclipses the comics themselves sometimes and acts like every comic is exactly like the complaints rather than even attempt to read anything new or different.
