"On the other hand Lovecraft stories work because he was racist. Fear of the unknown etc."
Well when you get right down to it, the wizarding world of harry potter only really functions because of the author's hardcore belief in the importance of the status quo and the existence of groups of people who are inherently evil... Not saying the premise wouldn't have worked without that but it would have been a really different story
Also the belief that some groups are inherently superior or gifted. Not a great look in context!
Eh, that's like every super hero story, too. Like The Incredibles, and I still enjoy that movie.
Syndrome did nothing wrong.
