Wow they're not even trying to hide their collectivism and statism these days. All individuals must bow down before the great state! And this statement: >The villain, after all, must get his comeuppance. Is completely orthogonal and erroneously attributed to the hero's journey. Has the author ever read any classic literature like the Greeks? You were supposed to feel _bad_ that the "evil guy" was evil and that he had to die. It was a tragedy. (In a Greek Tragedy? No!) I question many of the author's projections and "read-between-the-lines" interpretations that he uses to make his argument. There's nothing wrong with writing a story about people coming together. But his arguments for everyone else to do so, are flimsy at best.
