Suggestion: Flowey from Undertale, who has grown to view monsters as lesser and as completely okay to exploit, despite the fact that, as he reveals in the endgame, he used to be one himself.

• "Catbug from very odd (Maybe Crackfic) or somewhat infamous (Likely Trollfic) Five Nights at Freddy's fanfic Bear got Diabetes have Catbug implies hating himself not being an Catbug put he believes he Furry since he acting like much human as others when Fazbear crew take over Colorado and later some parts of Mexico and most the West coast of United States and turn all captured humans somewhat into titular Furries for everything to make them Furry though Magic, Genetic Engineering and Cybermatics and Cybermatics is only for Mordecal except it's really Mike Schmidt (The same human, that was captured by Fazbear crew) who turn into that Blue Jay Mordecal by Fazbears crew. Put Catbug tries getting attention by making an one of Kuriva's giant Robot to win the war."

Removed this rather nonsensical entry. If someone can rewrite it to be understandable, feel free to re-add.

• Black Panther (2018): Erik "Killmonger" Stevens grew up amid racial tensions, and holds a deep resentment of white people. His solution? Sell vibranium weapons to black supremacist cells all over the world and convince them to rise up against their governments, leading to a One World Order with Wakanda at its head - in short, he aspires to be a colonialist himself. T'Challa calls him on this during their final showdown, asserting that not only is Killmonger as bad as his oppressors, but that his plan will only cause needless deaths. Erik doesn't care, as long as he can have his Revenge Before Reason.

Seems like this is a case of hypocrite rather than hating what he is. Killmonger hates white people and is using their own old colonial tactics against them, but he's not himself a white person.

Believe the Real Life example involving Norman Finkelstein could be edited. Not the part about him, but about the "Israel's brutal policies against the Palestinians." There are people (myself included) who would say have home-made rockets daily shot at you and continually have civilians, including children, targeted for attack justifies some sort of response. Imagine any other country criticized by the international community for responding to non-stop terrorism and political blackmail. I understand not everyone sees the Israeli-Palistine conflict that way, which is why that example should be edited, not deleted.

If someone thinks they can rewrite it to avoid anti-TV Tropes stuff, go ahead. If not, it should stay gone.

What about Becoming what you hate? Because your fighting it/him forces you to duplicate his methods including the very thing you hated?

To me the Austin Vs Mc Mahon feud from late 97-99 embodies this. Vince's opposition to Austin being the Champ started because Vince was very Lawful and thought Austin's Chatoic behavior would be bad publicity for the Company. But over the course of the War he start mocking Austin so much that it becomes Second Nature to the point where Vince's behavior is far more Embarrassing.

If there is already one and I missed please direct me to it, but I don't think it should be simply included in his, it's a very different Philosophical concept to me.
