      No offense, and I love Superman… but this is aimed at children.

      “Setting an example” only matters when it’s impressionable equally powerful youth enacting cruelty… not some sociopath with access to a mind-bogglingly world-destroying thermo-☢️ arsenal at the press of a button.

      I’m sorry, but this would be like asking that same child (who doesn’t have Kryptonian super-powers, mind you) to stop a Predator drone by “setting a good example.”

      It’s going to drop its laser-guided payload either way. Being nice isn’t going to help in such a scenario. Unfortunately, I’m afraid it won’t help in any currently unfolding situation being discussed in this thread either.

      Greenland won’t be able to stop anything by attempting to appeal to a “better nature.” Such nature does not exist within that person. Not that I’d ever advocate for it, but they’d probably sadly have more success just taking inspiration from 3-letter peeps doing what they did on the bottom half of the blue marble for a handful of decades.
