Politically-Incorrect Villain/Playing With

Basic Trope: A villain who is also a bigot.

  • Straight: In addition to being a Complete Monster and having a fondness for punting puppies, Emperor Evulz is also racist and sexist.
  • Exaggerated: Emperor Evulz is a genocidal monster set on exterminating racial minorities, albinos, handicapped people and GLBT people, as well as enslaving the impoverished and telling all women to Stay in the Kitchen.
  • Justified: The work takes place in Nazi Germany, or a Fantasy Counterpart Culture thereupon.
  • Inverted: Equal Opportunity Evil
  • Subverted: His political incorrectness is merely a facade to gain his people's approval; Emperor Evulz actually has views more tolerant and progressive than his subjects, and is the ruler of a highly insular and provincial nation.
  • Double Subverted: Emperor Evulz ends up Becoming the Mask.
    • Or, Emperor Evulz, despite being the exact opposite of racist or sexist, is snobbishly classist and plans to exterminate the physically handicapped.
  • Parodied: Emperor Evulz is a Racist Grandpa whom no one takes seriously, and spends more time using antiquated racial slurs and telling his Mooks boring stories than actually being a threat.
  • Deconstructed: Because of his closed-mindedness, Emperor Evulz comes to have a 0% Approval Rating, and a coup is organized to overthrow him.
  • Reconstructed: Emperor Evulz has a strong enough Evil Army to crush the resistance and carry on as usual.
    • The majority of the population sympathises with Emperor Evulz on these issues.
  • Zig Zagged: Emperor Evulz can't decide whether he wants to treat minorities like dirt or exploit them by giving them menial (but still quite evil) jobs within his organization, so he flip-flops between the two.
  • Averted: Emperor Evulz isn't racist, sexist, homophobic, classist, or a religious fanatic - or he might be, but that issue never comes up.
  • Enforced: The Moral Guardians want to point out how politically correct they are while at the same time pointing out how evil this guy is.
  • Lampshaded: "Wow. So not only is he a murderer, he's also a racist dick."
  • Invoked: Emperor Evulz, trying to rise to power, panders to his bigoted audience by becoming this.
  • Defied: "Simply because I am evil does not mean I have to sink to this level! I despise everyone equally!"
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
  • Plotted A Good Waste: The show was created and originally released in a country where discrimination is still a pressing social problem, and the creator wants to bring these issues to light.
  • Played For Laughs: Because of the sheer outrageousness and shamelessness in how Emperor Evulz expresses his views, no one takes him seriously.
  • Played For Drama: Emperor Evulz begins a campaign of ruthless propaganda and genocide, killing everyone who displeases him. And it turns out that our heroes are some of his most hated targets...
