[small] Yeah, I did, I'll fix that [/small]thaluikhain said:If they are using it as a symbol of something, absolutely. And particularly because the person who chose to use that symbol in the piece of fiction they like didn't do so at random.Snowalker said:Yeah, true, but its better that people know the history of things, don't ya think? I mean, sure most that dawn that mask hardly knows what it stands for, but don't you think they should?thaluikhain said:Though that's true, many people favouring that mask wouldn't have heard of him, and most wouldn't be interested in him at all otherwise.Snowalker said:Not trying to be a dick, but Alan Moore isn't the one who came up with that mask, its a Guy Fawkes' mask... from, well, Guy Fawkes... just go look it up.
[small]You mean "don that mask", I think.[/small]
While I know he didn't pick it randomly, I don't think he elaborated upon its meaning, though he did leave strong... no he just never directly stated, sure most get the meaning, but the fact that Guy Fawkes was fighting for catholicism (Albeit, more than that, but that was his plan, we've kinda given its own meaning)might deter people... In no way was I saying that Alan more was wrong in using, no, I loved the way it was used... I just don't much care for Anons use of it, if that makes sense.
