Okay, my hero lived long enough to become a villain. That's sad, but this happens.

Maybe he hopes for Russia to give me asylum? The KGB rule is much worse than he can even imagine though.

Yep, definitely not the first time. Just look at Scott Adams.

God Scott Adams. What a disappointment.

The Joy of Work should be required reading for every new college graduate.

Though Scott's not really a villain. Just a MAGA guy.
It doesn't make him a villain, but it does make me question his critical reasoning, and is very disappointing.
He always was a villain.

"He was arrested in 1994 for trafficking in stolen phone calling card numbers" (wikipedia)

just a fun loving, movie pirating criminal for a while.

Every hero ultimately becomes a villain in the current society, because current society cannot withstand people having different opinions from us.

If we cannot accept different opinions, what's even the point of having heroes ?
