Still not Supervillians.
Still not Supervillians.
Supervillians, not some CEO. No CEO’s aren’t supervillains, they don’t have superpowers.
We don’t live in a world where people are freeing themselves from prison on the regular just to “do it all over again.”
Keep in mind we’re talking about a cartoon about Superheroes.
My oginal point still stands: superman wouldn’t murder some CEO, a supervillian on the other hand? That’s an entirely different story.
That’s a supervillan. CEO’s don’t have superpowers.
Explain to me how Superman couldn’t have stopped him without deadly force? He easily could’ve, doesn’t make any sense. This context is also absent of the knowledge of the value of the extremes of the selflessness being common knowledge.
I didn’t even imply that people aren’t heroes. I said: they’re superheroes because they have super powers; humans don’t have super powers. Humans aren’t superheroes
I think the closest we get from a real world’s point of view—in contrast to anything thats ever existed, would be our capacity for selflessness, not only individually, but especially collectively.
I’m not saying I agree with the ethical choice this hypothetical superhero in question made.
No they’re not. They have no super powers, they’re only human. One of which you would be yourself if you shared the same circumstances.
Supervillians are one in a million (friendly reminder that they dont even exist). There’s seemingly an infinite amount of people that would replace every last CEO we kill. And behind every dead body, is a family, friends and who knows who else that would only be given the incentive for revenge; The “vicious cycle” of an eye for an eye.
Yeah but that’s a supervillian, not yet another CEO admist the sea of all the others. Superheroes don’t want to have to kill at all but against evil of that magnitude, they feel as though they must because to not would mean the lives of countless others, so they make that age old ethical choice of killing one to save the lives of potentially even millions.
Superheroes aren’t murderers.
Superman wouldn’t do what that murderer did.
How typical of Man to consider murder something a Saint would do, and murder as justice.
