I don't know the anime context, but it seems like a criticism of Luigi-types.

Violence is a very effective tool for social change and maintenance--for good or ill. One can advocate for violence without claiming any moral superiority and instead purely on the likely outcomes of that act of violence.

    So, this may be some meme shit I'm missing — but how exactly is circular logic anything other than a self report on the OP? You must understand that this is not a serious post based on the verbiage, right?

    Light Yagami is the protagonist of the show/manga Death Note. basic premise is that he finds a magic notebook that will cause the death of anyone whose name is written in the book. He begins by only killing those who "deserve" it, but as they say "absolute power corrupts absolutely".
