Which is why you can show villains mowing down civilians left and right in a movie and it doesn't even seem...... like it feels kinda pointless

Until they *steal something*

Ohhhhhh they're bad because they're stealing OK yeah

All the murder is just... no no they're a thief so yeah you gotta send the overpowered superhero after them.

And also this is why so many "villains" are just poor people with no powers who are smart and "heroes" are usually dumb but ridiculously powerful.

And if they're not dumb? They're rich.

We need to turn these tropes on their heads.

ALONG WITH the fact that heroes can be smart and at the same time be southern, cockney, black, or lgbtqia+
