Real Vigilantes...
I grew up loving Batman and Superman and all the rest of it. Later on, I realized just how fanciful these characters are.
Firstly, how many billionaires are there? I don't know, at least thousands. How many Batmans are there? None. If there were good billionaires, billionaires would do good things. But most of them don't, and the ones that do, only a handful have ever given meaningful portions of their wealth.
Secondly, how many vigilantes are there? Like, people that do vigilante as a side gig, take it seriously, not talking about people who have, once, done violence against an individual or small group who was getting away with crime. "Good" vigilantism has happened, occasionally, but nobody makes a hobby of it.
But vigilantes who make a habit of it? Almost all of them are horrid people who do things like lynch black folk, shoot homeless children, or destroy aid meant for people crossing borders.
I would love to hear of one case of one real vigilante who during peace time did consistent meaningful good, instead of doing racist classist evil shit.
