RWBY - Really makes you think, huh?

True, but she also:
1.) Directly murdered two people (that we know of), and indirectly murdered/severely injured at least dozens, if not hundreds of people, and presumably caused incalculable amounts of damage to the Kingdom of Vale,
2.) Provided aid to criminals,including a known terrorist organization, and
3.) Caused the complete shutdown of one of the few bastions that allow humanity to survive in the face of the Grimm, and the destabilization of international diplomatic relations. And that's just what we've seen.

Honestly, I sincerely doubt anyone who explicitly states that their goals are "I want to be strong; I want to be feared" has anyone's best interests in mind aside from their own.

True we don’t know her goals…. But this secret military project had feelings so fuck her goals, she’s a villian, a born evil!
