Where the evil villain will go on a rant about how society is cruel and needs to change and that they're going to change it. The hero opposes this for like zero reasons and somehow we're supposed to be on the hero's side.

Are we really supposed to believe that our society doesn't need to change? Are we supposed to cheer for the status quo even when it's shown to be terrible?

I also hate the sympathetic villain trope where it's shown that the villain is the product of abuse and yet their want for revenge is still treated as unjustified.

    Was it? I got more ecosocialist vibes. They used superpowers to benefit the town for free, and when they lost their powers the magicless towns people enthusiastically volunteered helped rebuild the house for free.

    The house was big not because it was a bourgeois luxury mansion, but because each additional family member was given their own room.

    There was a character that made plants magically grow and they lived in some solarpunk af secluded mountians.
