On the Awesome page for Rick & Morty here
, SP Burke added this entry:
I don't know if this entry is kosher or not, but in any case, concernedalien11780 added the simple line of "among other things" to it.
My concern is not that—it is the HUGE edit reason along with it.
"Most of the toxic fandom controversies relating to Rick and Morty were in relation to either people who use Rick as a reason to act pseudo-intellectual and mean to others, harassing female writers on Twitter, or acting like lines like "Wubba-Lubba-Dub-Dub!" and "Pickle Rick!" are funny without context, and where all three of those might overlap. While certainly not apolitical, Season 3 didn't really have any obvious political satire or moralizing, because despite Dan Harmon and Justin Roiland being ardently liberal, albeit Harmon rather moreso, they don't like to preach very much, at least not within the show itself. Even the instiutionalized racism allegories in S 3 E 07 "Tales From The Citadel" didn't have anything obviously referencing any real-life instances of police brutality or systemic struggles. Perhaps "Fascist Morty" was a way of calling out fans that harp on any liberal politics or bigotry being depicted as negative appearing in the show whatsoever and interpret it as being preached at, or people who say they don't want politics in their TV when they really just don't want to see alt-right types depicted as villains, despite there being few other ways to depict them in modern mainstream media. This is perhaps more applicable to the controversies relating to HBO's Watchmen show than Rick and Morty. The way it was done in this episode was perhaps the least preachy way to address a larger issue surrounding the show's fandom, and could trick the kinds of fans implicitly being mocked into laughing at it as well. TLDR, while I won't remove the "Awesome" entry on them calling out neo-Nazis in the Rick and Morty fandom, because of the rules on opinion-based entries, I at least chose to add the "among other things" to at least partially address what the controversy is really about. While there perhaps is something to be said about not letting the show be honest about the world we live in, I don't think that not wanting to hear a certain kind of opinion in the shows one watches should automatically make someone be seen as a neo-Nazi, and that if they're going to acknowledge anything relating to the toxic fandom, it should be the other things I mentioned, even if it runs the risk of making the show come off as more preachy. Most alt-right people hate Rick and Morty already anyway due to it being a defining part of the liberal comedy community of the 2010s, so they're probably not going to see the show anyway, let alone get the message. If my rant here makes any of the higher-ups decide that the entry I'm talking about should be removed or more heavily edited, then OK. I'm not trying to change anything too heavily, I just want readers to consider things from multiple angles."
So...Yeah. Is this okay?
