My biggest problem with cartoons like this:


Even as child I got weary of villains ADMITTING to being evil. The "he he he i'm evil" crap never really made sense to me because I never saw real life horrible people ever admit to it. Evil people have their own ideologies and agendas and in their own minds rationalize their actions and behaviors. Nobody sees themselves as the villain.

It is a problem I have with STAR WARS, the "dark" side to me is a euphamism for evil. The STAR TREK villains are way more interesting to me for that reason.

We need to stop insulting the intelligence of viewers including children and stop with the crap where villains admit to being evil.
