I think a big problem is that people often presume that someone the heroes or protagonists don't like is automatically bad or evil.

Take FF7 for instance. Rufus Shinra is listed on the Draco in Leather Pants section of YMMV.

But what does he do that's actually evil? Sure he made a speech about ruling through fear but when we see him interact with his soldiers, he's praising them and they seem to like him. Unlike Heidegger, who beats up his employees.

He wasn't involved in dropping the plate. He didn't hire Scarlet or Hojo or Heidegger (though given the crisis that occurred when he was president, I don't think we can blame him too much).

What does he actually do that's evil?

And yet, on the contrary, he does a lot of good - destroying Sapphire Weapon, trying to stop Meteor with the Huge Materia, defending midgar from the WEAPONS, and risking his life to do so.

He does try to execute Tifa and Barret. But they DID blow up reactors that killed innocent people (and Barret himself admits it was wrong). And he let everyone else (Cid, Red XIII, etc.) go since they weren't involved.
