Veidt and Rorschach both busted through locks like Alexander cutting the Gordian knot. Veidt breaks a lock on-camera once, for a single important purpose and otherwise tries to find other ways to get rid of problems. Rorschach is more wanton with lock-busting, applying violence to every obstruction in his path. Veidt uses a lie to solve the metaphorical Gordian knot of war, while Rorschach potentially uses truth to break the metaphorical Gordian knot of peace Veidt has created with his actions. Or they both just really hate door locks.

The motion comic cut out the scene in which Malcolm’s wife says she’s sure he’ll help Rorschach because he’s “the most positive person” she knows. This implies that he sees everything, including his vocation, through a rose-colored lens of blind optimism, and / or belief in a higher power. That cut scene sets him up as Rorschach’s polar opposite.

You completely missed the point. It doesn't matter how "extreme" or "disturbing" an event is. Metaphysical concepts like these do not exist.

He wanted a genuine purpose too late, he understood that his years were numbered. His epiphany was too late. It was too late to live.

I also think think part of what makes his writing so captivating is just how dark and depressing it is, Moore has such a wonderfully negative perspective..

After Rorshach teaching us about the common person not knowing the darkness of the world, does that mean that Red Robin doesn't know at all what he's facing, and is "qualified" so to speak for the title of a "hero?"
