Hm, my father in law was talking the other day about heros and how Hitler, Mao, Bin Laden are all heros. After he'd explained what he meant I agreed. He's Chinese, so his meaning of Hero wasn't quite what I thought. Howvere, they were / are all good - at what they do / did. They are heros to some people but generally unpopular [my opinion also]. Does good mean popular or does it mean good at what you set out to do regardless of consequence / morality etc etc. A little deep perhaps.
- just what i was looking for.klipklap
- murder, rapine, savagery lead to popularity. go meat!
capsize - i think it's lost a bit in translation... a chinese "hero" does not hold the same meaning7point34
- no, he meant hero as being someone who succeeded in doing what they set out to do, on a mass scale and for a body of people.Atkinson
