32. It's all part of the "superhero culture" we live in.

Look at the stories aimed at children in our society. They have clearly delineated "good guys" and "bad guys". The bad guys are only capable of evil. The good guys can do no wrong, even when their actions are identical to the actions of the bad guys. It leaves torture as an almost inevitable outcome.
