Many people questioned why the Water Company dared to manage so many superpowers under them without any restraint. In fact, the reason was very simple. The Sea King of unspoken newcomers, the train that kills for nothing, the transparent people who play voyeurism like in the book, and many superheroes under the Walter Company, although they are doing evil, but these are all small evils. Indecency, theft, manslaughter, these are all within the scope of social law. You find them disgusting because you can judge them by normal human standards.
While these people are doing evil, they cannot leave this society, because everything they want is in this society. They are greedy, selfish, and uncooperative, all of which have become the means by which the Walter Company controls them. As long as they cooperate with Walter, 90% of them can satisfy their desires. Those who can't get it will either give up or disappear under Walter's big consortium that can use public opinion, the law, and other superheroes. They are controlled by people, they are just powerful mortals. Just like the bugs on the spider web, bound by the spider web, it is the food of the spider (but they and the company actually have a symbiotic relationship, is it better to compare them to aphids and ants).
Water Corporation is a great evil that cannot be easily sanctioned. It is a big financial group that develops abnormally under capitalism. As a big conglomerate, it pursues what it wants without reservation: interests and power. Controlling public opinion, threatening the government, and possessing superhuman military power. They are actually endangering American society, and it is even more difficult for the government to bring them down. While the whales are eating away at the entire country, they are also endangering the entire human society (I believe their love is world-famous).
However, the Water Company did not overthrow the order of human society, but only made use of it. As long as you follow this method, you can steadily expand your own strength, why bother with everyone. It is like a spider on a cobweb, trying to crowd out other species and occupy the entire web and the food on it. At least, it follows the rules.
And the patriot belongs to the third category, the evil of mankind as the enemy of mankind, and he does not intend to obey the rules at all. Growing up in a laboratory, he has no humanity, and human life is only a tool for him to achieve. He poses as a smiling boy in front of the camera, which is both a habit and a purpose: to achieve what the godmother wants. Money and fame are not what he wants. His only purpose is to feel family affection.
He first tried to please his godmother, because he got twisted affection from her. But when she finds out that her godmother has no feelings for herself, she becomes a useless existence, like throwing away a doll. He should be doing things for his son later, but what if it happens again? They are like toys to the Patriot, he will give his heart for them, but if the toys are not fun, he will throw them away without emotion. If one day he gets tired of playing and doesn't want to feel family anymore, the situation will get out of control. He directly stretched out his hand to pick what he wanted in the cobweb, and didn't care whether he broke the cobweb or not.
There are also many evils of his level, a beast, a meteorite, a mechanical accident, these things do not care about the rules of human society. But a patriot has unparalleled strength, an intellect beyond mortals, and the emotional intelligence to be president. If there is no one who can control him, of course he will play with the society at will. And when you get tired of playing, throw it away. This is exactly what Luthor worries about Superman, but unfortunately there is no Luthor in this world (just a copycat Batman black, but since he is a copycat Batman he will definitely get into trouble. And maybe the Patriot has a physical weakness, or can get it strength against him)
Of course his godmother would be afraid of him. For the sake of the overall situation, the godmother will not kill people when they are unhappy, and will not take the risk of killing a plane for the sake of a higher approval rate, and she will not dare to hand over the compound to a terrorist organization to create a super villain. But the patriot dares, he is not afraid of anything. The godmother was afraid when she learned that the Patriots had been creating supervillains without telling herself. She realized that she had never been in control of the situation, and that she could not make the Patriots listen to her completely. She was being controlled by the Patriots.
He's like a clown, like dio, you know he's a villain, but it's hard to feel disgusted or feel like he's scum. Because they're not human at all, you can't judge them with human morality. You wouldn't say that a meteorite that hits is a murderous maniac. I dare say that the patriots in this drama will definitely not be whitewashed, otherwise it will definitely be a failure.
