i find it hard to believe that spiderman is reading Atlas Shrugged

[–]BagelsGoneWild 46 points47 points ago

It's a nod to Spider-Man co-creator Steve Ditko, who was influenced by Ayn Rand.

[–]TheAethereal 4 points5 points ago

Really? So, I don't know much about spider man beyond what I've seen in the movies, but does he really hold that "with great power comes great responsibility?" Does he really believe he has a duty to help people?

If so, that is almost the antithesis of Rand's moral philosophy.

[–]BagelsGoneWild 2 points3 points ago

Oh, Spider-Man is definitely not an objectivist. It was Steve Ditko who was a fan of Rand. Beyond that Rand and Spidey have very little that connects them.

[–]SayNo2Kryptonite 0 points1 point ago

This made me sad. And kinda happy that Stan Lee now gets all the credit for Spider-Man.

[–]hazie 2 points3 points ago

Stan Lee may have had similar views. He based Tony Stark on Howard Hughes basically as a big "fuck you" to his own socialist fan base. Stark embodied everything they thought they hated but Lee made them love him.

[–]SayNo2Kryptonite 1 point2 points ago

Interesting. I guess he changed his mind as he got older. Supposedly he's a pretty big lefty.

[–]BagelsGoneWild 0 points1 point ago

This is one part where the movies were good about not fucking with his origin story.

I actually wasn't feeling it. At least in The Amazing Spider-Man, I don't think he really ever showed too much responsibility. Even after Ben died, Pete pretty much forgot about his widowed aunt and searching for his Ben's killer, so he could hang out with his with his new girlfriend. Also after Captain Stacy died, he implied that he'd break his promise as long as he got what he wanted. To me at least, the Peter Parker we got in the movie wasn't the Peter Parker we know and love.

[–]BagelsGoneWild 0 points1 point ago

Why? Because he believed in something that you don't? Not to downplay Lee, but Ditko arguably put much more into Spider-Man's early years. It's really a shame more people aren't aware of Ditko. He did a lot to make comics great, and deserves some respect.

Sorry, I realized you were sort of making a joke, and I don't want to sound preachy, but hey it it what it is.

[–]nativefloridian 38 points39 points ago

It's probably assigned reading.

[–]MILKYCAT 3 points4 points ago

[–]swohio 12 points13 points ago

[–]z3r0gk 4 points5 points ago

Personal reasons?

[–]nataloris 13 points14 points ago

Spiderman had to make his own way, man. He built himself. He was never part of that Avengers initiative. HE BUILT IT, MAN. WORKING TWO JOBS, MAN.

[–]yetkwai 1 point2 points ago

He did join the Avengers later though.

But then they hit the big reset button so he's not an Avenger now.

[–]BagelsGoneWild 0 points1 point ago

Not trying to be a neckbeard here, but Spidey's still an avenger. Marvel hasn't done a big reset in a while. You might be thinking of DC's New 52.

[–]yetkwai 1 point2 points ago

No I mean One More Day.

By "big reset button" I don't mean universe wide, I mean they reset everything in Spiderman. Everything.

Sorry to be the one to make you aware of this stupid event.

[–]BagelsGoneWild 1 point2 points ago

Oh, I'm all to aware of that travesty. But it didn't erase all of Spider-Man's history, just his marriage. His avenger's status remained. They even had to reveal Spidey's identity to the avengers again because part of the deal was that everyone forgot his identity, with the exception of mj.

Here's a picture of Spider-Man and the Avengers well after OMD

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to bang my head against the wall in an attempt to forget OMD.

[–]yetkwai 2 points3 points ago

Oh I thought it erased everything. I just read one where Peter Parker was sent to photograph Tony Stark at a press conference, and Tony didn't know who he was... so I just assumed.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to bang my head against the wall in an attempt to forget OMD.

Sorry about that. Maybe you can make a deal with the devil to erase that memory...

With great power comes great responsibility - Uncle Ben

With great power and money comes great ways to reward yourself and not worry about other people - Ayn Rand

[–]Regiruler 7 points8 points ago

I don't think he cares.

[–]Shamwow22 3 points4 points ago

Well, Peter Parker is a teenager who's still in school. He could be just reading it for a book report, not because he agrees with Ayn Rayn and loves to continuously read it and nod affirmatively to himself.

[–]Randtastic 6 points7 points ago

With great drive/reason comes success, with success comes money, with money comes the embodiment of your lifeblood/your work. The goal is not just money, it's personal wealth. You shouldn't have to handicap yourself for the "common good". I don't even know why im responding...it's not really worth it. I suppose I'm defending myself because I despise short sighted criticism regarding realistic, and prevalent ways of thinking. There's no rational way you can disregard the ideas of individual wealth.

[–]agentdude 11 points12 points ago

The point is that the character of spider-man/Peter parker is the antithesis of all that. He is constantly sacrificing his own happiness and personal wealth to go use his power for the common good and to save a bunch of people he's never met for little to no gain himself. The early issues were all about how the public hated him but regardless, because he had the power he went out to go save others rather than use his powers for his own gain.

Ayn Rand: making selfish dickheads feel good about being selfish dickheads since 1936

[–]Berdiie 22 points23 points ago

What part of that came off as selfish dickhead? He's saying that Rand wasn't telling people to throw up middle fingers to society. She wanted people to take responsibility for their personal happiness and always strive to personal betterment.

I can be rationally selfish and not ruthlessly psychopathic.

I won't give my time, my money, or my attention to my uncle's new wife because she is a horrible mooch. There's nothing physically wrong with her, but she's constantly going to doctors trying to get disability. She won't get a job and teaches her over age 18+ daughters to do the same. Meanwhile my uncle is working two jobs and suffered a stroke and heartattack. Giving my time, money, or attention to her doesn't solve anything and harms me. This is rationally selfish.

I do support Obamacare and gladly pay my taxes. My money can be used to help me and the people I care for like my father. Knowing that he could go to the hospital anytime he needed because I paid more into taxes would bring me happiness. It would remove worries that I have and allow me to live easier. This is rationally selfish.

[–]augystyle 12 points13 points ago

just the support of rand's philosophy bothers me. i don't mean to say that i support able people dragging down others out of laziness, but rand and randians do, in my experience, lack empathy for those who really do need help from people who are more able than they are. it sounds to me like you're not like that, and Randtastic may not be either, but those people do exist and it makes me angry.

also, thank you for being civil when i wasn't

[–]Berdiie 3 points4 points ago

Thank you for the answer. I agree that many can be like that, it's one of the reasons my stint as a Libertarian was quite short.

I think Rand wasn't the best writer, but she put a lot of heart into her work and liked to work with symbolic extremes. I think Terry Goodkind did much better in making a sympathetic and likeable Objectivist hero, which is amusing because he built it up with a Sword and Sorcery setting.

[–]quigley007 0 points1 point ago

so isn't Obamacare very not Rand?

[–]PinwheelRider 1 point2 points ago

Obamacare is rad!

[–]Berdiie 4 points5 points ago

In some ways, yes. On paper it requires a healthy person to pay for the sick, a well-off person to be forced to give to those that aren't well-off.

In a realistic way, it allows me to protect my loved ones. That's all that really matters to me. My money paying for you or any other stranger is part of the "plan" but really doesn't affect me positively or negatively. Protecting my family and friends makes me happy and makes my life easier. It directly influences my "personal wealth" in a positive fashion, so I feel it still fits the parameters of rational selfishness.

I'm sure there are many Randians who would say that I'm corrupting her philosophy. I feel that I'm using it as a working philosophy and that I can still be a charitable, empathetic, nice person and still always strive for my own personal betterment.

[–]okletstrythisagain -1 points0 points ago

this sounds like the kind of rationalization i used to make when i was a recovering objectivist.

now i can admit that trying to improve the community/world for myself and my loved ones by necessity includes improving the community/world for everyone and is thus an ultimately altruistic action. to co-opt a supply side econ talking point: all boats rise with the tide.

[–]blkirishbastard727 1 point2 points ago

Thank you for raising the bar for Objectivists in my eyes. It was pretty damn low, but It's good to know there's at least one guy out there who likes Ayn Rand and isn't a selfish fuckwad. In fact, he seems to be a rather kind and well-spoken fellow.

[–]Randtastic -3 points-2 points ago

So, defend the selfless alternative.

[–]Missing_Username 23 points24 points ago

The whole story of Spider-Man is the embodiment of selflessness. His character is built around the idea of being selfless to a fault. He does just barely enough for himself to survive, and everything else is funneled into helping any and everyone else. Between both his super powers and his scientific capabilities, he could easy be set for life, and instead chooses to live meagerly and constantly put his life on the line for people he doesn't even know.

[–]dexmonic 7 points8 points ago

It doesn't have to be an extreme, you know.

[–]augystyle 15 points16 points ago

the idea that anyone's success comes solely from their own drive and reason is just wrong. rand and her followers take on this attitude that society is driven by these few talented individuals and everyone else is a parasite (granted i haven't read all of her work but from what i've read and what i've discussed with randians this is what i've concluded.)

this is oversimplifying a vastly complex system of interdependency among people--the best and the brightest would be nothing without the infrastructure that creates the society in which things like intelligence and creativity are valued. i consider myself intelligent and i'm proud of what i've been able to accomplish so far in my life, but i've never thought for a second that what i've done has been just me. intelligence doesn't mean anything when you're working in a sweatshop. the fact that you're using the internet right now tells me that you've been provided with tools that put you in a tiny percentile of most privileged people in the world historically (i'm in this group too and i feel extremely lucky.) so yes i think there's something to say for owing something to the system that placed me here, especially to the people who by the luck of the draw didn't get the same degree of opportunities i did.

but moving beyond this point, i think that altruism is a virtue that can't really be given value through logic--but i'll do my best. we're all selfish to a certain degree, it's just human nature. if we had no bias for our own well-being over others, just based on the principal of marginal utility we would keep what we need to survive and use the rest of our resources to help those who can't survive. for me, the only value i've ever been able to find in life is the ability to feel joy and sorrow, and the ability to increase the sum of the former and fight the latter. almost everyone decides to focus on themselves and those closest to them. so we're all selfish, but i think it's a truism that the world would be a better place--just based on the decrease of sum suffering--if we weren't

[–]blkirishbastard727 2 points3 points ago

And for the purely selfish thinkers out there, there are tangible benefits to altruism too. For instance, augystyle now gets to taste my sweet, sweet karma!

I'd also like to add that numerous studies have proven that the "fuzzy feeling" you get when you help someone is actually a very real release of endorphins and that an altruistic lifestyle is correlated with better health in general. If there were no value to selflessness, we would not have evolved that reaction to it. SUCK MY SCIENCE, RAND!

Being nice and thinking of others also helps you make friends and get jobs and have sex, just so you know.

[–]bwainfweeze 1 point2 points ago

Very well put. Imagine you took intelligent identical twins, and dropped one in the second world and one in the first world. You come back in twenty years, you might expect the 1st world one to be a millionaire, and the second is living a comfortable life.

It appears to me that Objectivism says that one of these is a better person than the other. If that is true, then it is clearly horseshit. They are products of their environment, and it is reasonable to me to expect the more blessed of the two to feel a greater sense of obligation to... Something.

Fortune favors the prepared mind. Some see more fortune than they deserve, some less. You have the power to tip the scales..which way will you tip them?

[–]Randtastic 1 point2 points ago

I apologize, but I don't have the time right now to give you an intelligible response. I do have enough time to explain that society is run by those who are driven by the pursuit of rational self worth through work, and not just wealth. The philosophy created by Ms. Rand was all encompassing, and certainly was not Neo-Conservative. You can be a factory worker, a construction worker, a steel worker, a CEO, an inventor, a writer...etc. The philosophy embodies all lines of honest work, and dictates that if you are to follow a line of work, be the best at it. It dictates that the fruit of your labor is yours to own, as is your decision as to what you do with it. I don't empathize very well, admittedly, so I cannot truly apologize for whatever those particular followers of Objectivism told you about this false idea of "trickle down self worth". It is simply not true.

EDIT: This also includes art! And everything I'm discussing right now is in "The Romantic Manifesto"

[–]templardrake 3 points4 points ago

Spider-man is most definitely not an Objectivist. He fails the Objectivist test because he has no concept of self-interest. Others have in this thread have pointed out that at his very core, Peter Parker is an altruist (both in the everyday sense and the definition Rand uses in Virture of Selfishness) and tailors his life based on the Responsibility to Do Right. If anything, Peter Parker is a Kantian by way of John Rawls.

Now there is an Objectivist hero (albeit in the DC universe). He is the Qustion!#Charlton_Comics). The truly fascinating thing is that both Spider-man AND the Question were created by Steve Ditko (Ditko designed the costume, the motif, and the web shooters).

[–]OwlOwlowlThis 3 points4 points ago

Yeah, but she certainly knew how to make money off of peoples egos.

[–]mochuelo 4 points5 points ago

There's no rational way you can disregard the ideas of individual wealth.

This way you can just dismiss anyone who disagrees with you as irrational. Well, I'd rather be irrational and do good, than be rational and only care about personal gain.

[–]HeadlessMarvin 1 point2 points ago

Batman would be more interested in Plato than Rand

[–]tedacious 1 point2 points ago

Could be that he'd like both. He's a pretty existential crime fighter. He doesn't do things because he was gifted with superpowers and therefore feels the need to fight crime, he does it because he's got a bone to pick and shitload of money. I don't think having billions of dollars qualifies as a superpower, otherwise we'd have a few hundred people running around in costumes and sweet cars cleaning up our streets, rather than having Google, Microsoft, and Wall Street.

I'd love to see Warren Buffett's costume.

[–]HeadlessMarvin 1 point2 points ago

He didn't create Batman to benefit himself though. He chose this path to benefit society by creating a symbol of justice that Gotham lacks in it's corrupt infrastructure.

[–]tedacious 0 points1 point ago

I'm not arguing that he didn't feel compelled to do something about Gotham's crime, but besides his own free will, nothing forced Bruce Wayne to become the Batman. This is a pretty Randian philosophy. You take what is yours because it's yours (or because you feel it's yours), you make something because you can, and you hold on it no matter what. Iron Man readily accepts this concept, and his ego drove him to do the same thing. Heroes like Spiderman and Superman didn't chose their powers, so their powers (and reading material) I think would be a little more existential. Batman is a far more conservative superhero, and I'm sure Rand's philosophy would help him develop his persona. That's all I'm saying.

[–]HeadlessMarvin 0 points1 point ago

Rand's philosophy is focused on Self-benefit, not free will. Batman decided to take it upon himself to become a force for justice since it becomes the responsibility of the citizen to enact justice when the government fails to do so, as clearly outlined in Plato's Republic. He took responsibility rather than receiving it, this is true, but when the responsibility is to others instead of oneself it can hardly be considered Randian philosophy

And now everyone's sad... because you re posted this

[–]ViIlains 4 points5 points ago

... Stop mentioning that this is a repost. Some people haven't seen it making it still fresh. You don't have to comment about it.

[–]xNEM3S1Sx 6 points7 points ago

While normally I would agree, this particular one has been posted 5 or 6 times in the past week, WAY beyond the point of reason.

[–]BaseActionBastard 1 point2 points ago

What is this sorcery? I lost my job last week and I have literally glued my eyeballs to Reddit ever since. I've nicknamed the frontpage "Marie" because it is completely purple. Yet, this was the first time I have seen it.

[–]xNEM3S1Sx 0 points1 point ago

I end up on the 20th or so page every day, multiple times a day. It doesn't make it to the front page every day, but it makes it to 500 or so upvotes, which is enough to be top 20 or so pages.

Reddit Enhancement Suite has an infinite scrolling thing... its really not good for productivity, you think: "I'll just browse Reddit for a sec", then, two hours later, you're on page 30 or forty, and never noticed that you went past the second page.

same here, gave it a chuckle; but i was shocked when i came to comments to see it is a 5th, 6th time repost.

hmm.. i have nicknamed the frontpage "elizabeth"; yet i'm browsing from work. something's wrong here.. sorry for the job loss bro.

[–]Hookhand 1 point2 points ago

For fuck's sake, Spider-Man has a fucking hyphen!

[–]DesiBabu 0 points1 point ago

why did I laugh out loud after reading that? Am I in a danger of some sort, psychologically speaking?

[–]unknown_poo 0 points1 point ago

I think that Batman could defeat Spiderman.

[–]AlusPryde 0 points1 point ago

[–]DeNovoHope -1 points0 points ago

You could have waited at least a month before reposting... It's still funny though.

[–]MrCarrol 1 point2 points ago

[–]kc7wbq 0 points1 point ago

A cartoon about spiderman and batman? Edgy!

[–]OliverMcLovin 1 point2 points ago

[–]Squarish_Ball 0 points1 point ago

This was posted the other day... come on people.

[–]Azyal 0 points1 point ago

This is ridiculous! They don't even exist in the same universe, so clearly this would never happen.

[–]Sinkdrain -1 points0 points ago

I'm only sad because Ayn Rand

[–]little_orphan_batman 0 points1 point ago

Why do you keep doing this to me, Joker??

[–]Veuxomz 0 points1 point ago

Soooo repost. How does this shit even get upvotes? It frontpaged of two default subreddits, including this one, in the past 5 days.

[–]WhitePostIt 0 points1 point ago

Every time I see a Spider-man costume featuring that stupid tick, I eel obligated to point it out, and ask:

what the hell is up with the tick?

[–]Duraace 0 points1 point ago

Wtf man this was just posted recently.

[–]ChiClops 0 points1 point ago

This was on the front page literally last week...

[–]SlickRomantic -1 points0 points ago

Spider-Man FTW

And all at once, Batman grew up.

Spider-man is reading Ayn Rand? Interesting. Him being all about responsibility to society for having the ability to help it and such.
