Actually I dont like it too. But if you are talking about true villains (not some anti hero), then i have to say they will do anything to break a person even if it rape, cuz there should be no limitation of the things they could do.
So its like this, Not scheme to f*ck cuz thats being led by d*ck, but f*ck for the sake of scheme/achieving goal. I know what i said is hateable, but villains are suppose to be hateable. What we like to read is antihero character not true villain.
