They aren't just monsters. They're boring. How many fucking times can they please themselves over yet another yacht? Violating children in remote corners of the world seems to never stop amusing them.
All that death and destruction specifically for a number on a ledger going up? Their food is expensive because its expensive and because they collectively agreed it is good because that's what the collective said, no matter how actually slimy and disgusting caviar is (yes, I have petite bourgeoisie in-laws and distant relations and my dislike of their oligarchical slime trays is because I have a "peasant's sense of taste." :capitalist-laugh: ). Their social lives are full each other and that's like a special kind of hell of their own making, even if they take it out on their servants and slaves.
Where's the supervillain flair? Where's the big bold moves that don't involve penis-shaped rockets imitating feats that the USSR pulled off well over half a century ago?
If they have to destroy the Earth and kill us all, can they at least be less fucking boring?
A lot are banking on life extension/transhumanism, which is pretty supervillainy when they intend on letting everyone else and the planet die. It becomes crass af again tho because their transhumanism is definitely gonna be something as egotistical and stupid as copying their brain and uploading it to the metaverse

They want to be Dr. Manhattan but worse. :manhattan:
The "trickle down" :brainworms: apply there, too. I've even seen it on Hexbear. "Technology always becomes cheaper over time, so the vampire class becoming literal immortal vampires would be a good thing because it would trickle down eventually."
Yeah! Synthetic insulin will become cheaper over time! The technology is roughly a century old! Right? RIGHT? :padme:
