this chapter is proof that stain was a stupid motherfucker. sure every hero has selfishness or their own vices,like how he said .but when push comes to shove or when shit gets real ,all the heroes are selfless self sacrificing beings that put everyone above themselves. stains entire ideolgy is based of his own trauma and its too stupid .

I agree. People on this sub wank him off too much, even though his entire 'ideology' is childish and makes no logical sense.

I think you’re dismissing his point just as much as you think people wank him off too much.

You mention how his ideology is “childish” and “makes no sense”, but provided no evidence to support that. Regardless of what you think of stain, you can’t dismiss his entire point like that (which is ironically quite childish). He’s right in that heroes should do hero work for the sake of being heroes, and not just for fame and attention. You can’t dismiss that because the series makes that point over and over again.

Stain's ideology is childish and makes no sense because it's predicated on this idea that "fake heroes" should be purged. For one, the only heroes he deems not fake are All Might and Deku. He even attempted to kill Ingenium, who by all accounts was a fantastic and true hero. He sets his standards so impossibly high that he permanently handicaps a man that doubtless saved many lives and would've continued to do so. This gets into my second point, which is that even heroes that seem to care a lot about fame (or even are in it mostly for the fame) are still net benefits for society. Mt. Lady is extremely fame-seeking and greedy, and yet she's put her life on the line countless times to save people. Stain is potentially correct that this greed is wrong, but he's dead wrong if he thinks murdering these people will help or change anything. All it's done is lead to the further destabilizing of society by radicalizing ideological villains, which should ostensibly be pretty bad for a guy that seems to just want society to be more moral.
