Why do grown men care about Batman, Superman or Spiderman movies?

[Russell Bell]

Mdogg you bring up a good point.  "People are big into hero worship".  I mean, yeah some of you people are.  It explains the superhero movie phenomenon and also the Obama phenomenon as well.  Some people just like being told how great other people are, it makes them feel safe in their stupidity and mediocrity imo.

For as long as there's been people, there has been hero worship. Why do you think Alexander the Great was called the Great and talked about for thousands of years. The 300 Spartans, Athens. You may think others are foolish, but it is at that point you lost your humanity.

So youre doomed to repeat the failures of history?  Only a moron would sentence himself to that life and even admit it.  Typical liberal douche trying to lecture others on touchy feely bullshit and how if you dont follow the heard you must be some evil person. 

No, actually what I am saying is it's natural to look at people and look up to them. Do you not like Ron Paul? Matt Drudge? Mark Twain? There is some author that you read, some person you research, or many people you research. There are people who shape us, everyone from parents to maybe a religious figure or a moral person we admire. These are all forms of hero worship. For many years I denied I had some level of it, I was like my dad is my only hero. But I do study the writings and speeches of Dr. King, Gandhi, and other non-violent leaders throughout the globe. To me, people who struggle and don't bend on their values are true heroes. So in my older, wiser age I realize exactly what I did.

One day when you are a parent (God forbid) you'll see your child look at you like you are the greatest thing that's walk the Earth. You'll realize many things you have done and see life a bit different. I'm able to admit a lot of things now that I wouldn't before. Before I was like, I'm a man, I don't hero worship. Now I realize I do. It's things like that.

For someone to be my hero, I need to at least know them personally, not thru some "Equity and Fairness 103" college course reading.  But for you, I guess you get suckered in a little easier.  If you ever grow a pair (God forbid), maybe you'll get me.

As I said, over time, I'd call people like Dr. King and Gandhi my heroes, but it could be someone like a parent, a grandparent, an aunt, and uncle. And I never took Equality and Fairness courses, I did take Modern Indian history once, but that was because I already was studying Gandhi. But whatever. Like I said, I went through that faze to.... "I'M A MAN, I DON'T HAVE HEROES!"

having heroes doesnt mean worshiping someone

ANY sort of idol worship is very dangerous.

I always hear dudes talkin about how much of a beast this athlete is, that athlete is etc...Its borderline like they wanna bang em or some shit lol.

[Sccit]

worshiping is a whole nother thing, tho

Agreed...respect and taking notes is gravy.

[Rick Venom]

like those crazy fucks who know mj diddled them kids but worship him too much to acknowledge it.

that dude got more idol worship than anyone and he didnt have no authority or nothin.

[M Dogg™]

Hero worship is a side effect of looking up to someone. Not saying hero worshiping is good. I'm saying it happens.

[Sir Petey]

Rappers I look up to...

2pac
Snoop
Daz
Warren G
Kurupt
Nate Dogg
Suge Knight (I know he's not a rapper but I will add him to the list anyway)

...been that way since these guys came out and I would be lying if I said I didn't still look up to them.  I don't see anything wrong with that.  I'm 30 now, and they are always 10 years older than me.  So they are always ahead of me so there is always something to be learned from seeing how they change and adapt to growing older and the changing times.

This doesn't mean that I only look up to rappers.  There's other people I look up to.  Probably somewhere around two dozen people in this world that I look up to.  You would be a fool not to learn from the ways and experiences of others.

[Hack Wilson - real]

why do you look up to Daz?


ripping off your fans and smoking crack while dissing your dead homies mother for the same thing? 

[TraceOneInfinite Flat Earther 96']

why do you look up to Daz?


ripping off your fans and smoking crack while dissing your dead homies mother for the same thing?  

Many reasons why I look up to Daz... For example, I look up to Daz, because I remember when I was going through the worst and lowest period in my whole life in the Spring of 1998, and that RRGB album was like the only thing that made me happy in those days.  

Looking up to someone doesn't mean you will do everything exactly how they do it.  Sometimes it means learning from their mistakes.
