Movies Question regarding Dr.Zaius

[Nebulon_Galaxy]

Is Dr. Zaius right? Should events from the past be hidden from the masses? Should it only be hidden from the public and a select few should know about it, so that they can spearhead the species into a correct future without war and challenge?
Is he really a bad guy? I feel like he was preventing damnation if someone would leak out the truth.

The movie im referring to is "Planet of the Apes"

He's lying to maintain the dogmas of a race-based caste society that also puts people in cages. However he did put Charlton Heston in some pretty crazy bondage scenarios so it's impossible to say if he's good or bad.

Is it really race-based if the only other race is basically feral? Unless you mean the chimpanzees and gorilla. But they seem to enjoy there roles.

I don't know. This "Dr. Zaius" probably has a few screws loose, honestly. Also, who says most societies aren't already run in the way that he(?)'s suggesting?

Remember what Ian Malcolm said about chaos and the illusion of control.

Missed the part where you said this was Planet of the Apes. Whoops!
