Pretty much the title. I've been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality.

I think it's easy for us normies to respect other people and their property because there are clear consequences for violating social norms. But what would the average person do if they had super powers?

He did not outright tell that it would be unetical but he implied it.

...gambling lottery... But if I wanted to be ethical

Imply that the roulette part is unethical.

He said he would do it tho, so I guess it's not unethical enough for him not to do it. Stealing is unethical but yeah, it's casino, so it's not that bad.

I read it again and it says the same thing, what am I missing

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It in no way says that stealing from a casino is ethical. In fact, they even say "if i wanted to be ethical..." after the casino bit.
