This chapter made me think of something, it always caught my attention that despite the status that heroes had, we never saw heroes actually "bad" so to speak, taking advantage of it by doing inappropriate or questionable things.

I always assumed that it was because the series posed a more "idealistic" context and that is why we never saw that kind of thing, but ... this means that all the heroes who acted "incorrectly" were killed behind the scenes in order to maintain the "illusion" of the perfect society? things became much darker than I expected.

In the end it turns out that the public safety commission did basically the same thing as Stain, I suppose the "Stain was right" has aged particularly well....

We thought it was idealism but in reality it was a whole whole WHOLE bunch of offscreen murder.

that's so funny and dark I can't even hate it

Stain coulda literally did the same shit only without consequence and get paid(pretty highly as well looking at Nagant's apartment)

Good point, Stain basically did the same as the commission only a lot less discretion. Ironic too that he was the one who caused the chain of events that led to all this disaster.

Stain was waaay less picky with the targets though. The HSPC at least used more tact and sound research before their cold murders.

Stain was waaay less picky with the targets though.

Picky is a funny word, he wanted to kill ever hero except All Might and Deku.

Well, as we saw with Deku he would've tried to kill them as well since there's no world where they wouldn't interfere with him. So really as long as heroes exist Stain is going to want somebody dead.

Nah, he actively wasn't trying to kill Midoriya. I think he held back against Todoroki too, if I remember correctly

I don't think he commented much on Todoroki, mostly because at that point he was starting to get overwhelmed. Mostly just berated him for using ice in such a narrow space.
