I remember the Christmas episode where they actually succeed, but the moment Brain will send the message to control everyone he just read Pink's Santa letter and just wishes everyone a Merry Christmas, proving he actually has a heart and is capable of empathy. So yeah, Brain in charge might be an improvement right now.

Also part of Brain's motivation was "I can probably rule the place better" and his metrics for "better" were rather good compared to your average politician.

It’s like how Dr Doom is a villain who wants to control the world but every time he gets in charge, he basically creates a utopia. Like yeah, he took the world by force and is basically king, but the public healthcare, education, and infrastructure has gotten REALLY good

Dr Doom is a villain because he violently opposes Mr Fantastic, not because he's actually a bad guy.

And I say, Zangief, you are bad guy, but this does not mean you are 'bad' guy.

And all the slavery and killing and what not, but y'know, it's hating Mr. Fantastic that's the real crime.
