See the world as right/wrong only works in movies since there is a clear objective and motives. if the motive is not in the movie it does not exist.

This is a ends justify the means debate.

If the ends justify the means, then yes. The few die to save the many. Classic Vulcan Logic.

He did shit wrong, but it was to prevent a greater evil. That greater evil would have been spread out among the many. It's a concentration of wrong on his part to prevent more wrong later on.

So in the end, yeah. He did shit wrong. short term it was evil, obviously, long term was good.

This is what the paranoid Illuminati "predictive programing" and "false flag" like Pulse and Sandy Hooks are doing. It may seem like few hundred people die but it could save thousands if not millions on a longer scale.

Is it deceptive?

Is lying wrong?

Is it evil to harm people's lives?


The way to look at is, if you killed one women that was to birth hitler that would be okay in our view of time NOW. But at that time then, you'd charged as a criminal because they have no view of the future.

He fucked boys. He even had a Folder on his Macintosh about it.

That's gay and wrong. Rorshach told me so. And Snyder told me that Rorshach is the coolest and best.

Honestly Dr. Manhattan was the villain.

He could have stopped all that madness, but he decided to be a whiny bitch about it.

there was no reason to get niteowl are ror to the arctic, except to have someone around to gloat at, but he had the Doc and Spectre for that so again no reason to bring Dan and Ror out.

He had take them from the city to save them. Unfortunately not all of them was saved.

huh nice ok then Ozy did nothing wrong.

except get his ass handed to him by the comedian back in the day, but I guess he got even eventually.

>the alternative was nuclear annihilation
The alternative was POSSIBLE nuclear annihilation. The cold war paranoia about WWIII breaking out at any minute wasn't something that only happened in the comic book world.

The doomsday clock they had was the same one the real world did.

the situation was very different then real life, for starters Nixon was effectively running the country as a dictatorship, no JFK, it would have happened there was no 'Chance' involved, this is stated many times in the novel

Yeah this was the point of the whole thread. You know it, I know it and OP with his shit eating grin after reading your comment knows it. He doesn't give a shit about the topic...just baited perfectly for your exact reply.

Anyway, video games in public is unacceptable behaviour.

I thought the whole point behind Ozymandias' character is "Man believes the only way to save the world is to destroy it", when the very existence of Doctor Manhattan just barely implied there could have been another way.

He was so sure humanity was not strong enough to save itself, so he had to take humanity into his own hands. Ozymandias believed he was stronger than humanity, and while that may not make him "wrong", it does make him "flawed", which, in the end, makes him human, which is what he was trying NOT to be all along.

He killed a shit ton of people and Doc implies it won't even create the world peace he thinks it will. And now Doc Manhattan maybe the final boss of the new DCU so, yeah maybe he did everything wrong.

>implying dr. manhattan shouldn't have just brought those millions back to life before leaving

Oxy technically had superpowers right, Being able to see the trajectory of bullets and dodge them is basically a superpower
