The book Watchmen by Alan Moore is about a group of people who used to be superheroes, and some people are taking out all of their friends and killing them. The main character named Rorschach who is very quiet and able to sneak up on anyone. Somebody is picking off superheroes and very few people are actually taking this seriously. One of the main characters, Dr. Manhattan, is exiled and it shows how people are afraid of difference. The superheroes are disliked because of the fact that the police are having trouble with them.

When people are different, other types of people fear them. All types of discrimination are caused by differences, and this book is no different than all of the other books that deal with racism, religionism, or agism. These people are discriminated by because of all of their powers, when even though they are helpful, people still think that they do things like cause cancer. This book touches base on the origins of all of the types of discrimination when it talks about it.

In a perfect world, people care about each other no matter what their differences are. Mohatma Ghandi said "Be the change you wish to see in the world". This means that if we want people to be more forgiving, we have to do it ourselves. People who complain about other people but are not doing stuff by themselves are being utterly useless, and we cannot make moral changes without doing something by ourselves.
