Heroes make us worse people.

[Spiritual Warfare]

Heroes, the ones people truly look up to, are often superhuman in some way. They possess superpowers, are aliens, children of gods, or even gods themselves. Holy figures, brilliant minds, scientists, warriors, philosophers. But rather than inspiring love for humanity, they often inspire a kind of misanthropy. Instead of encouraging heroism, they seem to confine it, teaching us that only a special, elite few can be heroic. We are left feeling that we must be vain, delusional, childish, or foolish to believe we could ever resemble them. These heroes, by their very nature, make ordinary people appear less valuable, less powerful, less capable, and less admirable by comparison. They take away our sense of agency and our power to act righteously, placing these virtues on a superhuman pedestal. They make us desire their prestige, the affection and respect they receive, their powers and unmatched abilities. Yet, ironically, the heroism they embody feels diminished, it’s less meaningful when it comes from someone superhuman who faces fewer risks, battles weaker opposition, and succeeds with a near guarantee of victory.

Winnie the pooh disagrees. 

Humans create heroes for self-interest.

Holywood is not going to promote some kind of anarcist hero, then who would consume the shit?

Humans are emotion driven creatures. They can fall for any hero.
