Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[insanenoodlyguy]

Yeah, but once they rule the world, they have all at their beck and call. And you are probably a liability.

The thing about the kinda sociopath that will kill babies and rape dogs? They aren't good with the whole loyalty thing.

And those are the types that wanna rule the world. That, or they are cold emotionless logic robots that won't care about you.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

Not necessarily. Evil isn't a black and white thing; in order to want to rule the world you don't HAVE to be a sociopath who kills babies and rapes dogs. In fact, I quite believe the sociopathic types would rather destroy the world instead of ruling over it...! But really, evil isn't limited to "crazy sociopath", "moustache-twirling creep" and "emotionless drone". It's a big rainbow made out of shades of eeeeeevil!!

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[insanenoodlyguy]

No, but the rest would be stopped before they succeed. You'd either have to be a supergenius devoid of emotion or a complete bastard to pull it off.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[(Anonymous)]

Um, why exactly would they be stopped? And why do you need to be devoid of emotion in order to be a supergenius? :|

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[insanenoodlyguy]

Consider how many of these types actually succeed. It's never the ones you'd be okay with running things. It's the ones that if you love, you'll put the bullet in the back of their head yourself.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[grammarie]

I wonder if conquerors throughout history were all "crazy sociopath", "moustache-twirling creep" or "emotionless drone". I doubt it. Still, I'd keep on their good side.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[insanenoodlyguy]

And none of them actually conquered the world.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[grammarie]

No, but do you really think that means their power & drive & morality is somehow different? In days of yore, what they conquered practically was the world for them?

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[insanenoodlyguy]

But not, objectively, the world. We are talking about fictional world conquering evil here, not real people.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[(Anonymous)]

What about the villains who want to rule the world because they think they'd make it a better place?

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[insanenoodlyguy]

They very rarely win.

Unless it's Doom.

Doom let demons flay his one true love alive and wore her skin for arcane power.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[(Anonymous)]

That storyline was pure unadulterated bullshit, for numerous reasons. Waid didn't like that other writers had written Doom as a noble villain and decided to make him an evil ratbastard instead. It was like what Grant Morrison did to Magneto in Planet X.

Also, the idea that Doom would even need make a deal with demons (and the same demons who had tortured his mother in Hell, no less) for magic instead of just getting the magic himself is also ridiculous.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[majorshipper]

Darth Vader won for 20 years.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[insanenoodlyguy]

Darth Vader was Palpatines Bitch. He wasn't in charge, he was the help.

And Palpatine was that big a bastard.

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[majorshipper]

I know, I was just trying to be snarkastic,

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[fenm]

In other words, someone so arrogant they think they have the answer to all the world's problems? Yeah, imagine what would happen if you tell them you think they're doing something wrong...

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[(Anonymous)]

Are they arrogant if they're right?

Re: Unnecessary Overthinking

[kelincihutan]

YES! Even if they lucked into being really super right for one shining moment, they would still be a human being (for most fictional cases), and therefore, very fallible. And the more power someone has, the correspondingly huger the consequences when they do make mistakes.

Look at Russell Edgington and Talbot.
