Just because Ironwood has begun making totalitarian decisions doesn\'t automatically make him a totalitarian trope. The fandom is still debating whether V7 ends with him being a HeroAntagonist or an AntiVillain; but he is not yet a Villain. Full-blown villain tropes therefore don\'t apply to him yet.

* GeneralRipper: A General Ripper sees his key enemy behind every corner, hiding in every shadow. He was good once, but he\'s so obsessed with this enemy, that it\'s taken to disproportionate degrees and he\'s keeps trying to start wars against this enemy for often unrelated reasons. That\'s not Ironwood\'s situation. He\'s not trying to start wars for any trigger that he can interpret as being caused by Salem. He\'s been focussed defence, he\'s been focussed on the things Salem attacked in Vale and Mistral. That\'s a very different mentality and situation. It\'s only when his FatalFlaw is triggered that he becomes paranoid enough to second-guess every decision he\'s made but, that\'s again, not this trope -- he\'s not seeing Salem in the shadows, she\'s really there, on his door-step. While his previous decisions had been imperfect and sometimes controversial, the heroes had been coming together to unite against Salem. It\'s only when Cinder triggers his PTSD that things fall apart. That is not this trope.
