“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.” - C.S. Lewis. In the long run, heroes have the effect of villains as they create an idol substitute for moral action; villain, by contrast, create the necessary invention for such moral action. #idolaltry #godcomplex #superherocomplex #longtermconsequences #saviorcomplex #rationalselfinterest https://www.instagram.com/p/B_jN9j7gD1e/?igshid=1lw93jkeakii4
