They just want to be loved, just like the rest of us. They're going about it in an unusually roundabout way, that's all.
They don't want to be loved, they want to be worshipped. They want the world to kiss their ass, fucking lick it off while its full of shit. Their motives are stupid, they want to conquer the world but decide to hide rather than start a good ol war because they're too fucking weak or too cowardly. Fucking faggots.
