      okay but Ayn Rand's philosophy looms over THE INCREDIBLES to the point that if you are aware of the former you literally can't enjoy the moviehttps://twitter.com/dreamingnoctis/status/1379266427430055941 …

      Most twitter political and social justice analysis of media and pop culture is actually pretty low quality and overly simplistic, favoring galaxy brain hot takes over more sophisticated analysis. It also often misunderstands the complex relationships between culture and politics. https://twitter.com/BonannoCat/status/1379150627318693890 …

      It's got a nasty message, but it's not exactly Objectivism. An Objectivist Incredibles would have them refuse to help out the lesser beings who don't deserve it. And the heroes would be self made like Syndrome.

      What the Incredibles really celebrates is American Exceptionalism. It posits that certain people are just inherently superior than others and they have a duty to interfere in the lives of their inferiors, whether they want them to or not.

      Okay but the whole point of the movie is that lesser men wrongly persecuted their rightful overlords and that sharing in their power would be morally deplorable

      The take that Rand genuinely seriously cared that much about "self-making" gives her too much credit I would argue, like she absolutely does in fact believe in genetic superiority - she had a whole rant about how that's why her heroes are always beautiful and tall and fit

          And that stories that go out of their way to center physically unattractive protagonists are a form of degenerate art

          You're probably right about that. But would superheroes- characters who exist primarily to be unselfish- really be something she approved of? I know some superhero writers were Objectivists- most famously Steve Ditko, but it seems like a contradiction.

          The archetypal Randian hero would look like a young Mr. Incredible but would resemble Syndrome in all other ways- Rand worshipped geniuses, particularly male geniuses.
