Isn’t this the plot of Watchmen?
It’s the last couple pages of Watchmen, not really the plot overall. It’s the villain’s secret end goal that wasn’t really foreshadowed very well? (The movie tried to do better in this regard)
I thought it was foreshadowed in retrospect, like, you’re not supposed to figure it out in advance but when you look back you see all the clues and pieces and that it was there the whole time

Do you think his work glorified sexual assault? Or just portrayed? Or are we past even that kind of differentiation now?
Extremely valuable intel here. A tentacle could actually produce a thumbs-up gesture, if you think about it.
“[out group] isn’t doing their part in defending against this threat!”
“We need to give these [threat] sympathizers equal air time.”
“Doesn’t [threat] deserve rights?”
Robbers Cave experiment, anyone?
Ronald Reagan, is that you?
