Professor Rearview is a car-hater villain, obsessed with the total annihilation of cars and racing, as well as Hot Wheels City. He also seems to be a loving father to Cruise, training her to win the Ultimate Race.
Hot wheels show is pro-car?
The ideas of the ruling class are, in every epoch, the ruling ideas.

Attempted infanticide
Theft
Carjacking
every morally correct villain in a TV show/movie has to kill babies, so that the audience knows they’re bad
when your gynecologist has a hobby and you find out about it on a breaking news bulletin
They just mean he’s pro-choice
Attempted infanticide though because apparently actualy killing them would make the show not PG-12 or whatever. “They’re bad, you just take my word for it.”
Time is a circle:
Ha! I was about to mention this
very formative memory for me, seeing this episode of Speed Racer on VHS
He needs to join a Villains Who Were Right Support Group along with Killmonger, that one guy from Legend of Korra, and a few others I can’t think of right now
The boyfriend in Bee Movie is being cuckolded by a bee and he’s right to be mad about that
The replicant guy in Blade Runner literally just wanted to live.
Clytemnestra, Agamenmom deserved it
That senator guy they turned into a nazi from iron man who didn’t think billionaires should have private super weapons.
The replicant guy in Blade Runner literally just wanted to live.
I haven’t thought about Blade Runner as much as I probably should, but I always thought that it was supposed to get you to see things through the replicants’ perspective. I guess this is kind of a wild comparison, but even the most violent replicant is kinda like Nat Turner, I think the movie isn’t trying to make you think they’re evil, just that the conditions they’re under make them lash out violently. I don’t feel like either of the movies make much sense if viewed through the angle of a traditional hero vs villain paradigm.

Per Harrison Ford:

Nope, there was never any subtext, he was acting as a sci-fi cowboy bounty hunter tracking down dangerous replicants the whole time, Ridley Scott invented the “Decker is questioning his own actions and humanity” thing in post
Does it do that? Absolutely. But given Ridley Scott’s more recent works, I’m hesitant to say it was supposed to do that.
Pretty sure the guy in the bee movie was allergic to bees too
The replicant guy in Blade Runner literally just wanted to live.
He was a replicant, though.
The boyfriend in Bee Movie is being cuckolded by a bee and he’s right to be mad about that
Explainable, but not excusable. He’s in the “reasonable crashout” territory.
this short Red Sails piece examines the phenomemon
The Grinch
Zamasu from Dragon Ball.
The ultimate
option. I’ve seen enough.
Misanthropy and genocide are in direct opposition to left-wing politics, so I’m not sure why you’d give that response on a communist site.
I meant it more in a posadist way. If everyone and their mother in Dragon Ball is some kind of alien, then the gods are the alien’s alien.
This little gem from the wiki:
Occupation: Scientist, Terrorist
He also seems to be a loving father to Cruise, training her to win the Ultimate Race.
Hates cars, but sets that aside enough to help his child follow her dreams. What a fucking legend.
He was a racer but got screwed over in the past. His hatred for the hot wheels ultimate garage becomes more important to him than his daughter when she asks if they can keep it instead of destroying it.
The spandexed-paunch, fanny pack, and mirrored helmet is funny. He should be wearing cleats instead of boots. Lab coat is a great touch of whimsy to show he’s smart, I bet he’s always going on n on about climate this and science that.
Aka propaganda
Looks more like a scooter to me
He just like me fr
It really is kind of wild how in most cases the villain is just the victim of some largely avoidable tragedy.
