/That his hatred of Muggles and Muggleborns and those who associated with them was part of a sort of "divine right to rule" and "right makes might" thing./
Interesting. So, in your headcanon, Voldemort’s goal is to rule over Muggles, like Regulus Black had signed up to do in canon, and, ironically, what Dumbledore and Grindelwald were planning to do together before Dumbledore eventually backed out.
/My brotp/friendship otp: Voldemort/Bellatrix, Voldemort/Snape. (In very very sick ways, all things considered)/
Honestly, I don’t see why it couldn’t be that way in canon. Voldemort could still be a frightening villain and actually care about some of his subordinates (albeit in his own twisted way). At the very least, it could have explained why they were so willing to join him and suffer for his sake, even when they apparently got nothing in return.
/most of it is a genuine belief that he is somehow doing what's right./
So, he’s a Well-Intentioned Extremist?
/Replace "where" with "who", and I think you've got my reaction down to a T./
Ha! XD Move over, John Galt, the real question is, “Who is Tom Riddle/Voldemort?”
