Rorshach from 'The Watchmen'

He also killed a pedo on the day being a masked hero was made illegal. He tracked the dirtbag down after he was let out of jail for nice behavior, beat the shit out of the freak, killed him, and left his tied up corpse in front of a police station with a note stuffed in the mouth saying:

I will not stop.

He was crazy, but he was the only one doing anything. Makes Batman look like a pussy.

Libs hate Rorshach because he was "right wing" and ranted against homosexuals and shit like that. He never did anything to the "degenerates" he complained about as far as I know. He just ranted about them. He targeted violent criminals. But it's what makes the vigilantism compelling in the story. What's to stop some other vigilante from targeting who he feels morally justified in going after? Rorshach is NOT a villain in Watchmen, he's an anti-hero. In the woke HBO limited series, they made white supremacists worship Rorshach in the war against police, who needed permission to unlock their guns while on patrol. It was an interesting idea considering the war against police now where they have to wear masks to protect their identity, now. But of course they got it backwards where it's white nationalists attacking police and leading this movement instead of BLM left wing anarchists attacking police. I only watched the first episode though.

Alan Moore comes off as such a lame edgelord and is a self described anarchist who doesn't vote on some kind of principle. But a casual review of his politics would show he definitely leans leftist.

If I remember correctly, it was finding the little girl's clothing in the pedo's apt that actually pushed him over the edge into being insane.
