In the TV show he kind of is a supervillian / anti hero killing people that deserve it. I do fantasize about powers but in these fantasies I would use my powers to kill people that deserve it. To champion for the truly down trodden. Prostitutes... who are forced into it... people that pray on children, those who engage in human trafficking. Powerful people protected by society.

I couldn't agree more with this! It seems like we are alike in many ways.
I love Magneto. In fact, I used to think of mutants from X-Men as us social outcasts who have mental illnesses or other things that people won't accept us for and the humans as the normies who want to bully us into submission and treat us like we are second class citizens. I wanted him to win and wipe out humanity so those who have actually been hurt for being different could run the world alone.
I also used to binge watch shows like Dexter where the protagonist is an anti hero of villain that either goes after humanities scum or wants to live life on their own terms not giving a damn about society and their standards and animes like Death Note and Code Geass where the protagonist was a villain or anti hero that wanted to use a power to reshape the world as a way to cope with how overwhelmingly lonely and miserable I was from being treated so poorly by my mother and struggling just to get my basic needs met and having no friends or people to help me and what not.
I often have had a thirst for power so that I can change the world and make it better for people like us.
