Go To

Dagur the Deranged: So what's with the glasses?
Mirabel Madrigal: ...I need them to see?
Dagur the Deranged: Ha! You got stupid eyes! Now that I'm in charge, any and all physical impairments will equal life in the dungeons! The Berserker tribe is only for the strongest!
Gobber: How progressive.

Politically Incorrect Villains in Fan Works.


General
  • 95% of all Slash Fic antagonists are homophobic jerkasses, either as their main motivation or on the side.

Crossovers

  • In Dragons, Butterflies, And Who Knows What Else?, Dagur mocks Mirabel for her poor eyesight and declares that he'll have "physical impairments" be a felony that means life in prison.
    Dagur: The Berserker tribe is only for the strongest!
    Gobber: How progressive.
  • In Kage, Jade and Miranda both see Frost as a sexist jerk (and they're not wrong).
  • The Light of Abyss: In addition to his Fantastic Racism towards witches and demons, Belos expresses disgust towards mutants (using the archaic slur "witchbreed") and homophobia (describing Luz's relationship with Amity as a "vice").
  • The Night Unfurls:
  • In A Shadow of the Titans, Mumbo fits the bill, having a tendency to force women into being his "assistants". When he magically places Jinx in a rather revealing outfit, she comments on it being harassment.
    • On the other hand, since the Titans are Hero Antagonists to Jade, Beast Boy could technically be considered this (though Politically Incorrect Hero would probably be more accurate), with the trait being a Running Gag: like how he referred to Jade as a midget (the other Titans call him out on how that's politically incorrect), and later he commits mild racial profiling (albeit by accident) by comparing Jade and Mumbo due to the fact that they are both blue-skinned magic users.
  • While it's downplayed in the sense that he isn't an outright villain, Jameson in the There Was Once an Avenger From Krypton series is notoriously xenophobic and homophobic. He insults Supergirl as an "illegal alien" in his papers and raised Lena in conservative values that resulted in her growing up deeply repressing her sexuality. He also strongly believes in gender roles, as he reportedly ranted and raved when Pepper Potts was declared as the new CEO of Stark Industries.
  • The Parliament of Heroes: Downplayed with Robbie, as he's really just a jerk and not an out-and-out villain, but his derogatory comments towards Rose about her missing eye (calling her "Cyclops") paint him as rather ableist.

Nineteen Eighty-Four

  • In And The Party Died, the totalitarian state of Oceania, on top of torturing and killing people for showing even the tiniest smidgen of dissent, also persecutes gay people. O'Brien is genuinely disgusted with his newest victim's "perversion."

Batman

  • In And Then There's You, Ra's al Ghul couldn't be more sexist in his search for the perfect alpha male heir. It led him to dismiss his daughter Talia - who's an alpha and extremely competent as a leader - on the grounds she's female and as such unworthy as a successor. He claims to respect Jason but this respect is only due to the fact the youth successfully bore the "perfect" heir to his bloodline and his praise is basically acknowledging Jason as a fine specimen of his gender. Even worse, he strongly hints he's going to rape Jason to produce more heirs because this is an omega's function.

Cardcaptor Sakura

  • Continuation Fic Shadow of the Dragon has two examples, though neither are exactly villains per se:
    • Satome, the school bully, explicitly says that girls are worthless and only good for making babies, and thus he has become a serial rapist. As he puts it in chapter 10:
    "Killing a girl is a waste of a perfectly good cunt. All girls are good for is making babies, so why not try to knock up whatever girl I care to? It was what my sperm donor did to my incubator."
    • Later, as part of her hauntings, the ghost of Reiko Ichimai derisively carves "lesbian" into Tomoyo's desk, and later spitefully calls her a "lesbian whore."

Disney Animated Canon

  • The Bolt Chronicles: The evil behavior of cocker spaniel Duke and his master Frank in "The Blood Brother" is motivated by bigotry.

Harry Potter

Invader Zim

Jackie Chan Adventures

  • Queen of All Oni: Ikazuki looks down on Jade not just because of her youth and inexperience (which is somewhat understandable), but also because she's a female.

Katawa Shoujo

Kim Possible

  • Subverted in So the Trauma. Kim momentarily worries that her antagonistic rival Bonnie will freak out over her coming out as gay, or even kick her off the cheerleading squad for it, but Bonnie doesn't mind.

The Loud House

  • The Nightmare House has Dr. Mitchell, the Mad Doctor from Lana's nightmare, who uses a form of mind-control on six-year-old Lana because he believes that "good girls" shouldn't have her hobbies.

Luca

Marvel Cinematic Universe

  • Richard Parker in Lies of omission is not only an abusive dad, he's also implied to be a homophobe, hoping to frame Peter's time under Tony Stark's custody as a sexual one in order to mudsling their competitor and derisively calls his son "Tony's catamite".

Mega Man

Miraculous Ladybug

  • Burning Bridges, Building Confidence:
    • Lila, upon noticing Cole's bracelet in the colors of the lesbian flag, casually calls her a homophobic slur. She then proceeds to incorporate that into her bullying as she turns the rest of the class against her, Marinette, and their other friends, inciting her followers to call them slurs as well. She also uses that slur to describe Cole in the privacy of her own thoughts, underscoring how she's not 'just' using that to get under her skin.
    • Lila also falsely claims that Vexxin practices The Oldest Profession, which is used primarily to demonstrate how close-minded she, Alya, and Adrien/Chat Noir are. By contrast, more sympathetic characters like Nino don't see anything wrong with sex workers as long as they're consenting adults who willingly chose that line of work.
  • Feralnette AU:
    • Felix is both nonbinary and completely unrelated to Gabriel. This does not stop Gabriel from attempting to force his guest into the gender binary, constantly misgendering them as well as forcing them to cut their hair.
      • Gabriel is also incredibly disrespectful towards Amelie, referring to her as MISS Culpa rather than acknowledging that she's still married to her late husband and refusing to acknowledge her as Emelie's sister-by-choice even while brazenly attempting to exploit Emilie's stock in Amelie's company. He also underestimates her since she uses a wheelchair.
    • When Lila learns that Felix is nonbinary, her initial confusion is swiftly replaced by scheming, as she immediately threatens to report her 'concerns' about their gender identity to the school board unless they give in to her demands. Notably, this prompts Alya of all people to turn on her and call her out.
  • Hero Chat: Costume Change was akumatized after he got mad about losing to a black Junko Enoshima cosplayer in a contest, and once he's de-akumatized his first reaction is to look at Rena Rouge cosplaying as Ladybug and scoff that Ladybug isn't black.

My Hero Academia

  • The Lamarckian has the Wendigo, who wants to finish the work of the Trail of Tears, i.e. get rid of everyone with Native American heritage. He rarely calls Native and his family anything other than "Injun".

My-HiME

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

  • In the Origin Story Ascension, Grogar refers to Celestia and her sister as "mud fillies". He then laughs on the floor when Celestia talks back to him.
  • A Brief History of Equestria shows that Sullamander, the pegasi Commander before Hurricane, was incredibly misandristic, even by the standards of the Celestine Junta.
  • In Flutterspy, Miss Worthy is a bigoted Jerkass who refers to Rarity and Fluttershy as "mud ponies" just become they come from a rural village. She tries to sabotage Fancy Pants' Equestrian Fashion Forum (and ruin Rarity's career in the process) because she opposes his egalitarian views. At least one of Worthy's ninja henchponies, Red Adder, shares her views; she gives a speech about how "[It] is the right and privilege of the strong to rule over the weak".

Pokémon

Pretty Cure

  • The man in black from Futari wa Pretty Cure Dragon may very well be the most blatant example of this trope in the entire franchise. Even Moerumba doesn't stereotype Mexicans left and right like he does. This gets to the point where he's the most hated villain in any Pretty Cure fanseries, both by the readers and by the characters in-series.
  • In Glitter Force: Into the Glitterverse, the Big Bad, Glitterette, forces the Japanese Cures to take on English name, and when Saki/Sasha asks for curry bread, she denies her this on the basis of it being "too foreign", and gives her a whoopie pie instead.

A Song of Ice and Fire

Sonichu

  • CWCollateral: A Tale of the Resistance: Chandler and the chus are all bigoted towards non-white ethnicities, but homosexuals bear the brunt of their institutionalized prejudice. There are even "straight camps" in which Chandler's regime tries to force homosexuals to become straight.

Splatoon

  • Inkopolis Chaos: Almost all the villains in the story are racist towards their opposing race, with only Ruby Diorite and James Axowe turning away from their racism, and Jess Rubrum never being racist in the first place.

Star Trek

  • Aen'rhien Vailiuri: When you put a male-chauvinist society like the Kazon next to a World of Action Girls like the Romulan military, you're gonna have trouble. Maje Tillih thinks that because Morgan's a woman she dishonors her ship by commanding it. She kills him for that.

Young Justice

  • In Risk It All, Black Mask's mobsters refer to Ren and the Triads as "fucking yellow bastards" while threatening war. The password to one mobster's phone is "8-0-0-8" or "boob".
