** That's exactly why he does it; so Blaster can understand his commands and follow what's going on around him. Master noticeably speaks in full sentences when he's explaining to Max and the others that Blaster is intellectually disabled.

** ** Not to mention the Tribe is still alive and well decades into the future if the ending is anything to go by, and have begun to rebuild something of a society in the ruins of Sydney, no worse for wear.

** Considering Blaster's own [[spoiler: severe mental challenges]], being the companion and protector of a genius who [[spoiler: helped him conceal his vulnerability and ensured Blaster would receive food, shelter, and respect]] may have been the ''best'' thing that could have happened to him, under the circumstances. Better wearing a mask and a back-carrier than chains and whip-marks.

* Alternately, like many extreme geniuses Master may have some sort of mental issues himself, and have difficulty expressing himself except by playing up an ultra-confident JerkassFacade. A very different man BeneathTheMask is hinted at with his curt but less condescending interactions with his engineering staff, [[CryForTheDevil genuine, justified grief]] over the death of Blaster [[WhatHaveIDone because of what Master made him into]], his salute to Max's HeroicSacrifice, and the true HeelFaceTurn hinted at by the lights in Sydney shown at the end.

* More good reasons for Auntie being a pragmatic AntiVillain: One, she was "no one" before the War and Bartertown is all she has. Second, as brutal as it is, it's still civilization compared to the open desert and the likes of ToeCutter and Immortan Joe. She's also a woman (and a very attractive one at that!), meaning she has to be harsh to send a message to the likes of those HeManWomanHater types that she and her relatively egalitarian town are not to be fucked with.
