@yogthos I'd be surprised if you were wholly wrong. He went to ETON, for any sakes, and there are not many decent people there. His father was a British civil servant supervising the production of OPIUM to sell to China, and that's not a decent trade.

But people are complex, and he was certainly a very complex person. We're all complicated mixtures of good and bad.
