"We're a generation of men raised by women. I'm wondering if another woman is really the answer we need." - Man, that hits hard.

"Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War, no Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war. Our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars, but we won't. We're slowly learning that fact, and we're very, very pissed off."

This one feels very relevant today.

The guy who played Jigsaw is awesome.

The easiest villains to accept are the ones we look at and say, "I'm not like that person," but the best villains are the ones we look at and say, "We're the same, but I have limits." Those villains are the ones we learn from.

"The worst part about having a mental illness is people expect you to behave as if you don't."...This is so true and its why the issue only continues to grow and get worse.

As a kid I used to identify with the "good guys" in the movies. As I grow older, I completely understand and sympathize with the bad guys.

The heroes have to win every time. The villain only has to win once.

I am a FIRM believer that Joker was a necessary and important movie, about how society creates its own monsters. One snide gesture from everyone until the victim snaps and another shooting is born

Kids like heroes, because they're idealistic and often innocent.
But it's when you get older, and have seen your fair share of everyday crap, that you start to emphasize with the villains. Not justifying any, but I do get where they're coming from...

People meme Joaquin Pheonix’s Joker to hell and back but all too often I find myself agreeing with his grievances.
Certainly not his reaction, but it really does feel like civility and empathy are so lacking.

a hero will destroy you to save the world, a villain will destroy the world to save you

When you’re a kid, they tell you it’s all: grow up, get a job, get married, get a house, have a kid, and that’s it. But the truth is, the world is so much stranger than that. It’s so much darker. And so much madder. And so much better.”

All quotes are relevant.. however still ignored.. the reasons .. 1) No one cares 2) People tend to ignore problems 3) it costs money to solve

That First quote is basically "The benality of evil" and it's true. Real saddens me how often people just ignore terrible things when it's inconvenient.

“Wanting people to listen you can’t just tap them on the shoulder anymore you have to hit them with a sledgehammer”
He’s kind of right tbh 😂

“A hero sacrifices you to protect the earth, but a villain would sacrifice the earth to protect you”-Attack on Titan

"Heroes and villains always have the same back story—pain. The difference is what they choose to do about it. Villain says “the world hurt me, I'll hurt it back” Hero says “the world hurt me, I'm not gonna let it hurt anyone else.” Heroes use pain. Villains are used by it." - Alex Hormozi
