The only way it could have been better is if she didn't constantly call capo ferro whenever she fought and they just let you put two and two together that learning how to fight with super powers still counts as learning how to fight in general.

Security is a hollow ideal if it comes at the price of your will, happiness is subjective. You can't force happiness onto people.
What you're saying is the same as a caged bird with clipped wings. It will be feed and taken care of, but it will forever remain an stunned and unrealized individual. The very act of "taming" an animal is to make it reliant on you, and make it abandon its desire for self-reliance. Like that anon said, people aren't cattle. You're basically taming people, allowing people to live meaningless mediocre and dictated existences, squandering under the apparent blanket of conformity. Brave New World takes this further, allowing people to be born without attachment to anything or anyone, wallow in hedonistic, hollow relationships, addled by (rationed) hallucinogens and the overall frowning of "negative" behavior, and trapped into a predetermined caste way of life.
So yes, totalitarianism (and to a further extent, hiveminds) is evil, doesn't matter what outcome, because it works by stripping down the people it's supposed to be protecting.

The protagonists having back up is by far my favorite trope, especially in /co/ shit

Like when Batman reveals that the rest of the League is behind the hangar gate, or in Young Justice when the Team is is revealed piece by piece as some fly in from the top of the cave and others unmask themselves as decoy henchmen. A proper reinforcements scene gets me everytime.

>>88841925
I'm well aware there are people that crave utopia no matter what cost, but there's also people who think the opposite. It's also the reason why such "utopias" will never come to pass, because they require people to follow the same way of thinking.

>>88839038

>>88841938

As heroic as that sounds, it is far from the truth. There is nothing evil about humans, just what society accepts and doesn't. The majority of people in America, the literal sense of freedom, don't vote, choosing to go along with the flow rather than actively participate in the decision making process. Noam Chomsky once stated that people no longer care about being enlightened but are so far gone in the trivialites of their own lives which cause them to fall into the spiral of silence thus consenting to whatever society they are in. The people you and this guy >>88842111 are talking about are extreme cases that are few and far between. You cannot permanently get rid of these people so you have to get them to consent to the idea of the utopia while proving them an outlet for their ambition and creativity.so long as it doesn't upset the system.

I love it when the group of heroes get separated, either because events outside their control force them to or because they need to go their own separate ways and over the course of the season grow in unexpected ways through their attempts to reunite or finish the initial quest by themselves until fate brings them back together where for some it's a joyous, heartfelt reunion and for others it is a somber occasion because their allegiances have shifted and now find themselves on the opposite side.

I'm not gonna say the Investigation Team was correct, because all they did is say "U SUCK LOL", but Adachi does indeed suck because he chooses to blame everything in society instead of doing any introspection, so he indulges into selfish and reckless pursuits such as killing people as a game, and wants the world to be the same because "CHAOS DUDE LMAO". Adachi has the personality depth of a puddle.
This is why he possesses a corrupted version of the protagonist's persona. He represents everything wrong with The Fool arcana: impulsiveness, frivolity and poor judgement.

It depends on the "villain" really.

Kek, the same line of thought behind fascism, communism, etc.

>We'll do what's """best""" for """everyone""" and others will learn to submit to our benevelant rule! Oh, they won't submit? Well I guess we'll have to do something about them to keep out progress going!

Haven't you utopia chasers done enough to the world this past century or so?

Protip: If you need to keep the populace sedated via drugs, brainwashing, or force then you aren't doing them any favors as human beings unless you just see them as little more than living piles of meat.

Which brings to mind another question...

Why not just lobotomize the entire populace? You seem to believe that if a person is breathing and not in any noticeable distress then it's a victory for humanity, regardless of that person's mental state.

Hell, start with yourself and then report back- OH WAIT, let me guess! You intend to be a part of the ruling/administrative class in this brave new world, am I right?

>>88845770

>>88845839
If it starts in a thread then it belongs in the thread.

>>88844678
The two examples that come to mind are Beavis and Butthead's Christmas Special and Fairly Odd Parents.

>>88845770

I have no intentions of being the ruler, it does not suit me, but if I could be a part of the process it would make me happy. I only want to see people at their most optimal performance. Its not out of sick desire for being on top which is the folly of some totalitarian systems but it is more efficient when the people are happy to be apart of the system. Hence there is no need for brainwashing or lobotomies, because people are perfectly capable of surrendering their own free will if it has been proven the system works. Now there have been failures but their have been success as well. Denmark is a huge success in its pursuit of utopia. The people there well fed, have families, and pursue their desires. They make enough to sustain the system and in return they don't need to worry about thinking about the big decisions. They don't compete nor have the desire to. They are almost at perfection.

Well said. But I think you were right the first time with fascists. Utopia Chasers implies it's about some grand noble striving instead of fear-based entrenching. Frightened Marvel citizens wanting security from those scary mutants and all that.

It's the same thing as "whatever nationality/race/religion/generation/etc I was born into is the best. People like me should be in charge and we should all agree because I am uncomfortable with differences."

Check out Robert Altemeyer's writings and research on authoritarianism if you haven't already.

Read up on what it's actually like living there, it's not exactly a utopia unless you like the idea of acting and thinking as a single massive indistinguishable blob. Even real success is frowned upon if you're too good at something simply because you might stand out too much.

>>88846080
"Utopia Chasers" refers not to just those that promise a shining utopia with ulterior motives, but those wanting to believe in it as well, as they are always the enablers of such disastrous plans.

Stuff like eugenics, for instance, was pursued with the best of intentions not unlike >>88845985 here, but the results of such beliefs in practice were disastrous.

It's ultimately a struggle between modernist and post-modernist thinking. I understand the appeal of achieving perfection but there are far too many instances in history where groups think they know best, go for that goal, and leave rivers of blood in their wake only for it to be revealed that their ideas were flawed from the start.

Well of course since there isn't a system in place as of yet that matches what I am describing so you can't see the effects.

Denmark has it's faults particularly in the realm of race which is why I do not think it's perfect, yet. That "blob" you are talking about is the ideal society. Everyone is on equal footing and perform functions best suited to them. Yes people are shunned by being too successful because that promotes competition which threats the society. The problem with people standing out and overwhelming success is it stirs negative emotions among the rest and the winner or stand out gains an ego. Most people like yourself associate with collective society as negative yet fail to address the flaws of a free society. The United States continues to be one of the biggest contributions of crime because there is no security. A free society in of itself is anarchistic in nature and makes the individual think they are more than what they are worth. The level of distrust against others and the superficial arrogance of oneself cause people to seek out their best interest. There is no room for sympathy in a free society and paranoia is rampant. In a collective society the assurance of security and addressing their desire cause people to become more complacent and thus pose less of a threat to themselves or others. I would like to see how far humanity can progress if they are devoid of all irrational emotion.

People don't want what's safest and "best", they want freedom and the chance to push themselves to see how far they can get. Why do you think people flock to Hollywood and try to become actors, even though odds are they'll fail miserably and anyone with a brain knows that?

>>88848409

You know it's funny you mention Hollywood because that particular industry describes everything I covered. People strive for such a glamorous lifestyle that was incepted into their heads by Hollywood and throw away their lives to pursue an idea that doesn't even exist. And even if they do become successful in their endeavors they become egomaniacs who are gripped in whatever vice they developed along the way. It is why you see too often celebrities going to rehab or dying at such young ages because they took all the drugs and had all the sex they could have. The sad part is there is so much coverage in celebrities lives nowadays they have to be the person people see them as 24/7 and if they don't they become shunned from the industry. I ask you know: Can you honestly tell me that such a pitiful existence is better than the paradise I have laid out for you?

You would hate the idea of being nothing, so you need to latch onto anything to give yourself an ounce of worth in this pitiful idea of a society we're talking about. Well, what I'm talking about. As soon as I point out a flaw in such thinking you moved the post and claimed it was actually super great and perfect because hey! It's all hypothetical anyways.

>Well of course since there isn't a system in place as of yet that matches what I am describing so you can't see the effects.
And there never will be, no matter how much blood is spilt to achieve it.

>Denmark has it's faults particularly in the realm of race which is why I do not think it's perfect, yet.
And that's the key issue. If the US were as racially and culturally homogenous as Denmark, which would be impossible due to how large it is, then I can guarantee you that crime rates would take a dive regardless of laws.

>That "blob" you are talking about is the ideal society.
What a joke and too easily debunked. You already contradicted yourself by stating everyone should live up their potential, but then they can't here because it might hurt feelings. You also imply that everyone gets to do exactly what they excel at, but more likely they're pressured into demanded positions due to their willingness to bend to societal pressure.

>Most people like yourself associate with collective society as negative yet fail to address the flaws of a free society.
I'm not against a collective, I'm just against hive mind mentality as it stifles thought and converts humans into cogs.

Everything else you said after this is pure unadulterated hyperbole, like how a free society has no sympathy despite it being required there but not in state controlled one. Had a good kek at you indirectly deciding people's values btw.

How do you explain the people of Denmark then? They are happy participating in their society and aren't "scrounging for a shred of humanity as you put it.

>And there never will be, no matter how much blood is spilt to achieve it.

You keep harping that there must be death to achieve this utopia but I think the best society won't need any bloodshed to be implemented.

>If the US were as racially and culturally homogenous as Denmark

You are missing the point, it's because there is diversity that it bogs the country down. If you could eliminate the importance of that diversity and make everyone equal then race becomes obsolete.

>You already contradicted yourself by stating everyone should live up their potential, but then they can't here because it might hurt feelings.

I'm stating humanity can take more advantage of their potential as a group rather than an individual effort.

> I'm just against hive mind mentality as it stifles thought and converts humans into cogs.

Again, you fail to address the disorder and harm free society continues to conjure. The problem with freedom is that there is no control over what people can do to each other and enforcement only happens on a reactionary level. Sympathy is required in a collective society because any sort of disorder threatens that security so people have to look otu for one another.

>Top kek, it's called Science Fiction for a reason dumbfuck.

Conditioning is real practice that is used for the wrong reasons. with the right amount of social engineering we can obtain what is thought to be fiction.

>>88849594
>How do you explain the people of Denmark then?

>You keep harping that there must be death to achieve this utopia
There is no utopia, just death from people trying to achieve it. Even Denmark's laws and culture would be radically different if it weren't for Marxism, which led to massive bloodshed.

>it's because there is diversity that it bogs the country down.
We /pol/ now!

>If you could eliminate the importance of that diversity and make everyone equal then race becomes obsolete.
... and YOU missed the part about culture, but race will always be an issue no matter how minor. We're unfortunately hardwired for it.

>I'm stating humanity can take more advantage of their potential as a group rather than an individual effort.
Humanity's greatest achievements have always been spearheaded by individuals capable of thinking different from the masses.

>Again, you fail to address the disorder and harm free society continues to conjure.
The US' issue with crime isn't related to freedom, it's a cultural problem. Look at the terror attacks in Europe today, or the murder rate in gun control heavy cities like Chicago. The issue is the cultures that support such violence prevail there, not the freedom. Limiting freedom only dampens the symptoms but is never a cure.

>Sympathy is required in a collective society because any sort of disorder threatens that security so people have to look otu for one another.
What? Do you even know what sympathy is? You yourself believe that people need to be controlled, that they're worth a certain amount, and that they should't try to achieve greater success. That isn't sympathy, it's tyranny.

>Conditioning is real practice that is used for the wrong reasons. with the right amount of social engineering we can obtain what is thought to be fiction.

Except it didn't and therefore proof there can be peaceful implementation.

>... and YOU missed the part about culture, but race will always be an issue no matter how minor. We're unfortunately hardwired for it.

Culture has caused more harm than good and therefore should be eradicated. Race is tougher but I can see the solution to negate race until it is of trivial importance.

>Humanity's greatest achievements have always been spearheaded by individuals capable of thinking different from the masses.

Innovators are not special, they only invest more time into ideas than most. Groups can achieve the same result at a pace that doesn't shock the society. Incremental changes helps maintain order and devalues achievement and thus negates ego.

>The issue is the cultures that support such violence prevail there, not the freedom.

Culture is the problem. Eliminate culture and you eliminate all problems related to it.

> You yourself believe that people need to be controlled, that they're worth a certain amount, and that they should't try to achieve greater success.

Because it's not about the individual it's about the group. the more people invest into the idea of the group the more apart of it they become. A watch can only work if all the piece are in place and function accordingly. Each has their worth but the function of the watch is most important.

>and I can't bring myself to believe that there will ever exist a society where every single person on the globe will agree to stick to one culture.

Denmark participates in this type of thinking. They are happy to be in a society that only asks for their participation in their society in exchange for participating in group think.

>>88851706
You do realize Denmark's groupthink doesn't extend to anyone else, right? They're heavily anti-immigrant, and the odds are they can only sustain their society because they have a relatively small population and refuse to let in anyone who doesn't support their views. Their way of life can't spread globally because they're outnumbered by people who disagree with them.

Unrelated, the new captcha pics are delightful.

>>88851706
>>88852000
Also, advancement requires risk, which is against everything a society built on safety stands for.

>>88852000

Denmark has its flaws but its success is proof a society like this can work. The ideal scenario is the idea spread globally and every surrenders to this society.

>>88852027

Advancement is human nature to make lives easier and safer. That is it's function. As such, advancement will happen, as for the pace the safest way to make these advances is when the group is ready.

No because a villain can have the most sympathetic motive ever and still be incredibly boring if they're not characterised well.

Meanwhile a villain can have the most simple motivation like 'I want power for myself' and still be far more interesting if that motivation is integrated well into their character and personality.

I mean I don't think I'm being controversial if I say Ratigan is a much moreally engaging character than Professor Callaghan.
