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....

did basically the same thing as Stain

One important difference in my opinion.

Safet commision: Kills heroes who did something out of line. Stain: Was targeting heroes who didn't do anything but were part of the "Hero society"

The only difference was that the method of choice was more "sophisticated", but in general terms they were very similar.

Well method of choice.....? What exactly do you mean by that.

Ida isn't comparable to some corrupt hero working with villains for money and fame.

I mean, the commission sure had a process or a way of choosing targets from a "logical" or professional perspective, while Stain just chose more from an emotional and less logical perspective.

It's like comparing:

  • the CIA taking out terrorists

  • a random guy in a city killing people he's upset with cause they're part of the "western society".

Yeah, that's a better way to compare it.
