Moore is much more controversial because he doesn't flinch in believing his vision is the stone cold truth about the matter. He shows things, says things and focuses on things that he knows will anger people. Stone tells the story he wants to, with the ideas he wants to, and if people get pissed along the way...it's no skin off his nose.

Plus, Stone is a f'ing legend. We've got Moore who was elected to the school board at 18, while Stone's papa was taking him to see hookers at the age of 16. That's what I call visionary.
