if you're a normal person you judge people by their actions, if youre a brainwashed idiot you assume a lot about them by how they present themselves and what they say. hence why the character is called the judge, you can judge him at the end or at the beginning, most readers (very left leaning liberal minded western educated types) are appalled by the judges actions because they pre-judged him in a vacuum and then are shocked by his actions.

most esl / non western readers don't have this bias and then at the end of the book think - well he was bad, but they were all kinda bad.

Congratulations, OP, you did it. You actually read a book. Give yourself a firm pat on the back. You can go back to your videogames and tiktok now.

The judge isn't just evil for his actions but for his worldview that bleeds into his actions and the evil he encourages in others. Dude wanted to imprison every bird in the world, he's cartoonishly tyrannical.

The Judge is just a fun kooky guy.
