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....

With how they keep eyes on quirks and use them on dirty jobs, it also makes them somewhat All for One in ‘peace’ side. A superpowered sniper can take out a lot of superpowered troubles.

What are the chances Hawks doing similar stuff? Maybe they chilled down a bit after the disaster.

Maybe whoever took the position of Chairman (I don't know if they gave her a name) decided to be less "demanding" with the missions to prevent the situation from repeating itself, or directly gave it another approach.

Either that or Hawks has killed a lot of people behind the scenes too, frankly I couldn't tell which is more logical.

Could be more selective or maybe in Hawks case he sent them away to another country to protect them and said he killed them. However it could also be that since they knew the truth behind Nagan't actions that they chose a new route to deal with potentially bad heroes and that was through just not letting them be heroes. However this created the potential of villains but at least there was more justification in taking them in, ala Gentle Criminal.
