This question is mainly for Marvel fans, but the character Daredevil is a superhero/vigilante who’s a lawyer, mainly a defense attorney. I get he’s about upholding justice and helping the little guy, but wouldn’t it make more sense for the character to be a prosecutor or a civil rights attorney rather than a defense attorney?

I get not everyone is guilty, and a lot of people get screwed over, but let’s be honest: most of the time, defense attorneys defend people who are, more often than not, guilty of crimes. If Matt’s whole character is about justice, wouldn’t it make more sense for him to be a prosecutor, use his hearing to decide if the person is guilty or not, and achieve justice that way? Or become a civil rights attorney?

    I’m basing this on the Netflix show (and not the new one as I haven’t seen it), but Fisk is at least an empathetic person at times. There is a pathos there.

    Trump is an empty husk of a human

      I mean, yeah, Wilson Fisk is definitelty more human, but that doesn’t make him good lol

      I’m sure Trump has plenty of pathos for his good friend Jeffrey Epstein from all the evidence…
