Real-life Super Villains: A Necessary "Evil"
Oh great, now the wannabe superheroes are going to give us shit for not being evil enough.
" Evil " as part of this article's title is in quotes because research of all things RLSH/RLSV has yet to discover a RLSV engaged in actual villainy, i.e violence; fraud; etc.
Um...it's pretty much all fraud, isn't it? But I guess since you're doing it, too, it's a wash.
Given time, actual RLSVs in name and deed will probably emerge. On second thought, masked robbers and rapists could fall into the active criminal RLSV column. What do you think?
You mean...criminals? So, all it takes to be a supervillain is a mask? That's...easy.
I've read alot of digital disses and on line observations that didn't spare RLSH egos. To an extent that's good. RLSVs as rhetorical sparring partners and critics counter balance to our world view.
So calling you stupid and delusional is something you like? Well, I guess I'll keep doing it then, but now it'll feel weird.
I don't endorse obvious character assassination.
Aw, damn it.
Honestly, some RLSH don't need villain help in tearing down other real life superheroes, as various forums attest.
AN IN-DEPTH EXPOSE INTO THE CRUMBLING REAL-LIFE SUPERHERO COALITION
RLSVs offer valuable ( or debatable ) insight on us from onlookers just as creative as ourselves.
Creative as people who wear body stockings and homemade domino masks? Do go on.
Far from mainstream commentary, RLSVs have the potential to grasp our community from a more informed perspective. They seem more dedicated to making fun of RLSH excesses and even, in the case of Adam RLSV aka Tiny Terror tiny.terror@live.com, urging us toward better community development. Broadly RLSVs also assess ( assault? ) fictional heroes and real social issues with equal candor. Sites like the International Society of Super Villains http://www.the-iss.com enthusiastically serve this purpose.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Last year, I even met an RLSV music group named Fancy Pants and the Evildoers while securing a downtown night club in Savannah, GA. Their theme was tongue-in-cheek speed metal as opposed to heavy duty crush-kill-destroy.
I'm sure they thought you were an intelligent and reasonable person.
Warts and all, most RLSVs seem well enough adjusted to confine villainy to critiquing real life superheroes; our fictional counterparts and society at large. So long as the line into criminality isn't crossed, real life supervillains remain a necessary " evil. "
Man, if you can't tell the difference between somebody calling him or herself a supervillain as a joke and some dude jumping around on dumpsters trying to stop muggings, I can't help you.
NADRA ENZI AKA CAPT. BLACK promotes crime prevention and self-development. "HELP HAITI Y'ALL!!!" is the latest urgent humanitarian concern highlighted in his CRIME ISN'T A CIVIL RIGHT presentation.
Sigh.

I'm not a violent person--comparatively--but this demands a beatdown. Where do we meet?

So I guess what we can take away from this is the fact that they've finally allowed superhero comics in mental institutions, then?
...I feel embarrassed for this guy. That's saying a lot, because I'm a woman of very, very little empathy. I use babies as foot stools and grind bunnies into cement.
