It's not that I don't know what I'm saying its that you're making no effort to.
The servants that badmouthed him and were against him they are the hands that are going to be used, by their mother/brothers aren't going to target him directly. By taking over the minds of the servants he is eliminating any control his family has, at the same time he can use the servants to keep an eye on them. Either way they can do nothing.
Also I can't help wondering if you have a reading problem, I said if he had killed everyone then he would be dangerous but you seem to think I was saying "wanting to" would make him and everyone who ever had those thoughts, hanged. I'm saying if he killed them. IF. Not if he wanted.
It shows to me you can't be bothered to read and comprehend stuff. So I'll try not to waste my time further.
I'll just say this, it's not necessarily your opinion of him needing to be imprisoned I find disturbing. It's you completely ignoring the environment around him that pushed him to taking such extremes acting as if he is the only guilty party in this story. Because he would have died if he did nothing.
Just because he uses excessive force doesn't change the fact that as a child who the thought the world was against him sought to defend himself in the only way he knew from people who were after his life. I agree that he needs to answer to his crimes someday but you are just narrowminded.
Ignoring his dead end reality completely, no matter what excuse you give you are just blaming the victim, so what if he brainwashed his bros and mom? Would that pardon him in your eyes? He would also still be robbing them of their time.
You do realize that the servants are more likely to notice something is up with the mother and his bros if he did and voice their suspicions? It'd be harder to control them because he can't control them their whole lives, they have social lives if he confined them in the house it would be even more suspicious. When his bros get married or go to public gatherings he can't continue to keep an eye on their every move, its easier to protect himself from the people who will be the actual ones to harm him. Servants are easier to control. No one will kick up a fuss over a peasant.
