How does viltrumite society function with their dumbass ideology. like when you only value strength and combat who goes to school to study how atoms work so you can make a starship?
They basically used to exist as second-class citizens who ultimately existed at the mercy of the warriors, with the understanding they were necessary for the empire's growth. Then they got the slave races to do it all for them, especially after the scourge virus wiped most of them out.

I think it was more because Sparta was a slave-state that boasted the best army that nobody wanted to frick with so nobody fricked with them, they fell out of practice and relevance especially when it became almost purely a Naval game for most of Greece, they couldn't create a Navy that could compete with Athens and being good in a land war only meant they'd be wasting manpower taking what they couldn't keep. Eventually a greater landpower just up and took Greece and Sparta itself. In this case I guess the Helots would be the conquered peoples
I kind of like the idea they never invented vehicles because...why? So when they get to a planet they see other races riding on things and are like "I never thought of that!"
I'm not sure...
Maybe it's just so you can travel in style and comfort.
>so you can make a starship?
Why do they need a starship?

Why not? Like he's probably not going to go back to Earth atleast not in the same capacity but he can easily just stay with the Coalition doing good then becoming King like in the comics.
Firstly, they don't need starships. Secondly they didn't really go full eugenics until their society was sufficiently advanced and then finally the culling was a literal civil war between those who believed eugenics and galactic conquest was too far. Also they're not full moron of "If you can be killed, you should be killed" just "I'm the strongest, so I'm giving the orders." So Scientists are free to do science so long as head honcho wants it or doesn't care.

I don't think guys who can tank the vacuum of space have much need for a comfortable room temperature.
That’s not true, mark’s grandpa was the king and he wasn’t a warrior he was a normal guy.
He's the guy who decided to start doing genocides, isn't he?
There's also the problem of why viltrumites would even care about the empire. I mean you live in a society where failure has 0 tolerance and all your "allies" couldn't give two shits about you. I feel like betrayal would be common place.
But according to the tv show they have the magical ability to pinpoint any viltrumite anywhere in the universe using only their fricking wieners so that probably dissuades many of them.
They trace Nolan using fuel stop rules. This is not explained in the show, but in the comic. Viltrumites have to breathe every few weeks, so they checked every habitable world for traces of him, then traced his route.
>He's the guy who decided to start doing genocides, isn't he?
Thinking about it, yeah probably. The others say he was a wise king, but it IS the crazy murders saying this so unless Thragg’s betrayal came before the culling he’d have been the one to do it
They basically used to exist as second-class citizens who ultimately existed at the mercy of the warriors, with the understanding they were necessary for the empire's growth. Then they got the slave races to do it all for them, especially after the scourge virus wiped most of them out.
Complete misunderstanding of Viltrumites. They aren't just meatheads, they killed each other until their entire race became apex version of itself, not just physically, but intellectually too. If you are weak, you die, if you are dumb, you die, it's as simple as that.
How would that actually work though, practically? Extremely strong but very dumb members of the society would take down weaker smarter ones easily. I really doubt they would gang up in large numbers to take down the dumbasses

Strength manifests in many ways. Thragg is actually a fundamentalist in that he believes the leader must be the physically strongest. The other Viltrumites didn't follow the previous leader because he could punch the best, and they disabuse Thragg of his notions quickly enough.
>who goes to school to study how atoms work so you can make a starship?
The weaker races duhh, see flaxans. But yeah, they got lucky they were innately capable of interstellar travel
Anon if I told you a hundred people were left on Earth, and the answer to saving our race was to kill/experiment with mice that live a fraction of your own lifespan in natural settings, would you be concerned about the quality of life of the mice?
He can, and he will. And there's nothing you can do about it. Mark will forgive him, and Debbie will forgive him. All those lives Nolan took ultimately means nothing to Mark and Debbie.
He gets "redeemed" because he changes his mind and the good guys cannot afford to throw him in jail or something, he's better and more useful as an ally.
That actually applies to many other evil Invincible characters iirc.
The Lord Jesus Christ teaches us nobody is beyond redemption.
b***h are you mad
He can if he returns to his post on Earth and slaughters any resisters in the name of Viltrum.
Too late. He dishonored his race and his people. Execution NOW
>t.
his dick?
t. Thragg

This is why Sparta eventually fell.
I think it was more because Sparta was a slave-state that boasted the best army that nobody wanted to frick with so nobody fricked with them, they fell out of practice and relevance especially when it became almost purely a Naval game for most of Greece, they couldn't create a Navy that could compete with Athens and being good in a land war only meant they'd be wasting manpower taking what they couldn't keep.

That’s not true, mark’s grandpa was the king and he wasn’t a warrior he was a normal guy.
So they basically have Klingon mentality

Good work anon, I chuckled.
>Sorry I killed hundreds of people to prove a point....I didn't know how bad it would make me feel until it happened twice.
>Maybe it's just so you can travel in style and comfort.
sounds like the mindset of a weakling
Why not? Like he's probably not going to go back to Earth atleast not in the same capacity but he can easily just stay with the Coalition doing good then becoming King like in the comics.

None of these homosexuals are redeemable.

Why would he need to be redeemed? He didn't do anything wrong.
Nolan had a literally alien mindset. And people hold that against him despite him going native in the end.
Pls sir do not redeem
OH MY GOD HE KILLED A BLACK GUY
He gets "redeemed" because he changes his mind and the good guys cannot afford to throw him in jail or something, he's better and more useful as an ally.
That actually applies to many other evil Invincible characters iirc.
What about the comics?
Imagine all the children he killed on that subway train. Imagine all the mothers on it.
If they were on the subway, they were probably poor and/or black, so no real loss.
