      It gets even worse when you realize that it might have been the very same race of aliens that Big Mask talked about in his backstory, which means that they sent down multiple masks in hopes that somebody would use them to save their planet, and Face Melter instead used one of the masks to kill every single alien there.

Then we have face melter who’s kinda right in the way that big mask should take a break for himself and that he’s gonna get himself hurt.

    Face Melter has blown up the Aliens' planet... He is the reason for the cataclysm Big Mask blames himself for not preventing. In retrospect, Face Melter of all the characters is the least deserving of Big Mask's forgiveness, being a literal source of his guilt complex. And yet.

    • @radjetpack631
      @radjetpack631 Před rokem +70

      Funnily enough, the point of Face Melter is to straight up stop this kind of villains, like the first guy who wants to burn it all down. And his first reaction when using the mask was to literally obliterate the entire planet. Not only does this makes Face Melter an hypocrite, it also puts him to the same level as the bad guys who he so proudly stops to "save lifes"

    • @ndfdm5705
      @ndfdm5705 Před rokem +53

      I think facemelter feels guilty over it and he didn't do it intentionally because he hears about big mask back story he talks about "responsibility" and how big it was. He could of said he wasn't sure if it was real, a jape or that the mask was meant for him. Loads of things but instead he talks specifically about responsibility and how he can't blame himself - refering to big mask - for not reacting right with something so sudden.
      In his own words "I put on the mask, flew a planet, met some aliens, blew stuff up and went home" the dismissiveness and curt way of describing something so big is HIM being uncomfortable. He goes from saying it wasn't fair to it's not a big deal -in the way he refers to them-
      I think the point being is is that face melter is the opposite of big mask but ultimately with the same guilt. Hence the "need to be nicer to myself" message is nailed in. Just like how big mask feels guilt and a level of self hate for his failures, so does face melter bvut they both reacted poorly or with confusion to sudden, massive responsbility and power. I suspect that if we learn more of face melter back story it would of been more of an accident or "monkey with a machine gun"...or rather, super powered mask, deal. It would explain somewhat why he has a gripe against big mask - his inaction meant no one was there to help or stop him - and why he continues to fight villains. Even if he craves power, he still wants to fight bad guys. In his way..he is a bizzaro, violent big mask who has pushed himself more and more to do things his way - which has become corrupted from issues - and hence why he wants to do it faster and better. Because he has to...he has to keep going in order to atone, to even the scales.

      Smbc made an interesting comic a while back basically stating that superman could cure most of the worlds problems by turning a turbine and creating enough energy to power all of civilization hundreds of times over given his feats.
      Sure I get the entire thing where the mask puts him on the same physical level as the people he confronts so that he can interact with them on a logical and emotional level, but there are really better things you could do to help society with some physics breaking tech like that.

    Up to the point where bigmask realises facemelter isn't even listening, this is actually a pretty good deconstruction on rehabilitation vs punishment in the justice system taken to their extremes. Bigmask is just absolute rehabilitation, where he issues no punishment at all, and Facemelter is absolute punishment, where his only response is capital punishment for every crime.

      Well while i do think most of Face Melters' speech, if not all of it, was made to manipulate Big Mask i still feel like he brought up some good points like Big Masks sole reason for helping being guilt driven, the inactivity of his heroism due to it being guilty driven & Big Mask's neglection of his own mental/physical health, all things which Big Mask ends up taking a step back to think about in the end
      I won't tell you not to hate something since it's a very natural emotion but i will ask you to think about the reason you hate Face Melter, since he does actually do some good & has some valid points even if his intention isn't completely altruistic

      @@zomeone4507 most of it is just that I've gotten into *really* bad arguments with people I liked that weren't in good faith.
      In some cases even about the capital punishment adjacent stuff Face Melter talks about! (Though obviously the undertone of "making up excuses to be lazy and completely uncaring while also power tripping about being able to kill people as much as I feel like without needing to answer to anyone*" didn't apply)
      I wouldn't wish the "pick your battles about expending your energy on stuff that freaks you out" learning curve on *anyone.* Especially not someone *that* empathetic and willing to give people the benefit of the doubt. (Though it is making me more appreciative of Batman's no kill thing)
      * His first excuse for _killing a man that was extremely open to help_ is "I was saving you time" before spiralling into dumber and dumber "philosophical" excuses that only manage to show the "might-makes-right therefore I don't need to think about *any* morals other than my own and what lets me do what I like" framework he's working from

      @@elenafriese891 face-melter was completely in the wrong and his motivation was entirely selfish. With that said some of the points he made where actually true, big mask isn't doing anything a therapist couldn't do, he could just become a therapist and give the mask to someone he trusts to fight the people who truly can't be reasoned with, as a last resort. When a monster attacks, big mask isn't the only one who's life is in danger, but everyone in the city is, if the monster just decides to kill big mask then not only will he die but everyone else will follow him soon after. The only thing he can do with the mask that he couldn't do without it is to become big to get on their level to have a one on one conversation, which he wouldn't need to do if there was a team of heroes specialized in capturing the monsters so big mask could help them sort out their problems. But until that system is built being big mask truly makes the difference, since uncaring heroes like facemelter would just make the monsters spiral into a mindset of "if they treat us like monsters then we should act as such". Now that i think about it, therapists should be a bigger thing in prisons, after all their pourpose is the reform the inmates, not punish them.
      I guess the worst part of manipulative people is that they speak the truth to some degree, and they use that to their advantage.

    I really like the genuine progression of threats to big mask’s philosophy. At first it was someone who wasn’t understood by others or himself and just lashed out and needed the genuine help big mask provided. The second was a monster who was genuinely himself and did not need big mask’s help or approval but a possible change in trajectory in how they handled themselves and that was something that THEY needed to figure out themselves without big mask. The third and final guy is someone who poses the most direct opposition to big mask and questions the very philosophy that big mask has, but at the end of the day the key to why they lash out is that they are all misunderstood and they all are feel shunned.

    I never thought I'd get so invested into this, and I ended up crying on this one. Bigmask is really the most powerful, I wish I could help others out even without being a therapist.... I'm not the best at saying the right things at the right time, and most attempts of comforting my significant other most of the times won't be successful... I'm not a therapist, I've been to therapy a couple of times, and things that were said to me and worked do not work for others, neither I can analyse people that well to 'fight back' just like Big Mask did....
    But then again, I guess I can do other things successfully, we're still together for 9 years and we've been through a lot and I managed to at least help them find feel a bit better most of the times... So perhaps even if my words aren't what they want to hear, I figure other stuff out that managed to assist in making them feel better. So I'll be kinder to myself, just like Bigmask insisted they should be.
    Sometimes it tastes a bitter to know that loving ourselves is something we have to actively remember doing, instead of it being something automatic, like breathing... It helps us stay alive, yet we have to remind ourselves to do it.
    Hope everyone has a great day, we all deserve this and if the authors ever read this, I wish you too a good day too. Thank you for reading, even it's just a random vent on a CZcams comment.
