    Magneto. If someone is trying to genocide you, you don’t just ask nicely and hope that they change their mind. You fight them.

      Magneto is wild depending on the setting, he goes between obviously right and trying to defend mutants to maniacal mass murderer for no good reason

      I’ve appreciated a lot of these stories so much differently as an adult.

      Xavier, the good guy, is loaded and low-key supports mutant genocide because his motivation is to maintain the system that allows for out groups to be genocided.

      Magneto is attempting to make everyone safer by dismantling the systems of oppression.

      Oh dude, I’m watching the X-Men cartoon from the 90s for the first time and I totally hear you! (Yeah, it was sitting in my backlog, late is better than never I guess).

      The humans find any fuckin time to mess up with them!

    The leader of the replicants in Blade Runner.

    If I’m not mistaken he’s only killed and attacked in self defense. He just wants to live.

    Scar from The Lion King.

    Mufasa says that the lions keep the system in balance, but the system he’s describing is an absolute monarchy based on male primogeniture, with him and his family at the top. As the main beneficiary of the system, he’s not a reliable source of information.

    We see that not only the supposedly ‘bad’ hyenas but also ‘good’ characters like Timon and Pumba are outcasts forced to live off scraps, so clearly the system isn’t benefitting everyone, despite what we hear from Mufasa’s propaganda. We also know that, in fact, lions eat other animals, including the kinds shown bowing down to them at the beginning and end of the film. We never hear from these animals, but logic suggests that they’re bowing as much out of fear as fealty.

    Now, granted, Scar’s revolution doesn’t work out too well, given the famine that ensues, but he was at least trying for a more equitable distribution of resources than under Mufasa’s tyrannical reign.

    • General Hummel, The Rock

    His only demanding was the compensation of families from fallen soldiers that were under his command.

    • The machines and agent Smith, The Matrix

    In the Animatrix we get the explaination that men made the machine that eventually enslaved them. The machines developed consciousness, were trying to life peacefully next to humanity, but humanity eventually chased them out. While creating their own colony even then machines were chased by men. So fight to survive and eventually supress humanity by creating ‘The Matrix’

    Rhas al Ghul is the original longtermism.

    I think that philosophy, in it’s current techbro incarnation, is pretty… Dumb, but the way rhas talks about it, it kinda makes sense.

    Ghazgkull Mag Uruk Thraka. All he wanted was to unify all Orks in the galaxy and exterminate everyone else to bring the spirit realm of the gods into physical reality.

    Edit: I most definitely did not reply to this comment. I hope @Ernest sees this.
