They are all part of showbusiness which is but an arm of US propaganda machine. The next generation "heroes" are exactly the same, just they had less time for the skeletons to fall out from their closets.

i guess we keep collectively forgetting that they're also flawed humans because of their elevated profiles and also everyone wakes up at their own speed; maybe it just these particular flawed humans are extra slow to wake up. (if ever at all)

Chuck Norris didn't die. He just chose to send the rest of the world into afterlife.
